Usually I say yes - how often do you get to do this?

But $90 and it doesn't even include dinner? W T F?!

don't go, i was pressured into going with mine, sure my date was hot dinner was good, i think it all cost about 200+ total maybe

but after that i didn't talk to my date and didn't walk away with somthing ill remember, looking back on it now, it was very pointless for me and a waist of money

and from the few posts i've read it looks like your not even gonna have as good a time as i did, so i would say stay the hell home

40 minute drive each way or mass expense for limo
No free food this year
No date. No girls I'm even mildly interested in.
On night after final exams. WhyTF is it being held so late?
Nobody I really care about still goes to school here.

And yet, I feel strangely obligated to go, dress up like a penguin, and blow a ton of money for no benefit whatsoever, just to spend an evening with people that, with very few exceptions, I don't ever want to see again. In my mind, I *KNOW* that the senior BBQ will be a much better event to chill with the few people I can stand. I mean, seriously, everything's free, paid for by the underclassmen. Food, games, live music, outdoors, BIKINIS, etc.

just go for the sake of going so that later on you can "yeah i went to prom"

it wasn't worth it to me

if you can't get a date, don't go.

I went to my prom and had a great time, but I couldn't imagine being at a prom stag.
