I was gonna say, "A dorky looking geek"... but my upbringing kicked in and I restrained myself. Can you believe we actually wore leisure suits "back in the day?" I have a photo from that era and I always look at it when my wife drags it out... and I tell her it must be Jethro Bodine!

Wow John, didn't picture you in this look!
I have to admit, I was talked into buying one leisure suit by my clothing guy in the mid 70's. I think I only wore it twice however--it was lime green with a coordinating silk shirt--and of course those platform shoes as well! Disco didn't last too long which kind of influenced fashion. It's fun to look at old pics for sure!

I don't understand all the fuss. I'm about to go out to dinner in a blue leisure suit just like that one. Same shirt too.
