"Baseball is dying. It used to be what we'd do in the summer as kids when I was growing up, but it's not anymore. Kids don't play ball like they used to and are more interested in other sports, so much so that baseball is now last in the four major categories in terms of everything. I won't be surprised if baseball is dead within 50 years. America's pastime might be a thing of the past soon enough."
"Going to drive-in theaters is nearly, if not completely, a thing of the past. It was so much fun to go to a local drive-in theater in the summertime with my family as a child in the '50s. My sister and I would lay a blanket over the still-warm car hood and lay on it outside to watch a movie. As a teenager, going to a drive-in with your friends or significant other and making out in a safe place was the best! Modern technology has completely altered our movie and video landscape forever."
"Large family holidays. When I was a child, all the extended family got together for all the major holidays. Easily 30-40 people. Now, especially since COVID-19, individual families are doing their own things. It's easier not to travel. I expect to see this more as my children move out and start their own families."
