The Truth
Every kid on my block watched DBZ growing up...

We'd be outside hooping and literally come inside at a certain time just to watch it.

There was a bunch of shyt we did that no one really expected.

We used to have Mario Kart battles, played Final Fantasy taking turns or spend weekends beating other games together, watched wrestling faithfully on top of playing sideline kill football, basketball, backflips in the yard, wrestling on trampolines, running from the neighborhood pittbulls/rotties, riding bikes, trying to holla at females, foot racing, etc.

when I was in elementary school the show was very popular among the vast majority of both White and Black dudes at my school

Yeah we would discuss DBZ at school talking about powers levels lol but honestly i thought that was just us kids. In my teens i realized it wasn't just me and my classmates tho when i was at this local video store. It had vhs, dvds, cd's and some video games and remember going in there with couple of guys talking about why Bulma was a hoe and shyt :russ:

One of the few cartoons that transcend a lot of the demographic barriers.

It's right up there with the looney tunes, tom and jerry, etc.

Even if you're not deep into the show you know what it is.:yeshrug:
