From Bill Murray celebrations to “Magnum P.I.” – themed parties, the dreams of the ’80s are alive on South College Avenue. Restaurant and ’80s museum Totally 80’s Pizza reopened July after being temporary closed due to a fire.
In honor of their comeback, here are eight things from the ’80s that are popular today.

Doc Martens
This grunge look was popularized in the ’80s. Now they are seen across our University campus.
“Ghostbusters” remake
With a primarily female cast, the new “Ghostbusters” movie will take a new spin on the old ’80s classic.
Leggings
Thankfully, now they’re a bit more subtle than this.
High-wasted everything
From skirts to workout gear, high-wasted clothing was an ’80s staple. Now many girls rock the same style with an updated twist.
Jean jackets
Though never truly disappearing, jean jackets were especially popular in the ’80s. Hopefully now, trends won’t turn to denim-on-denim styles.

Capri Sun
The juice from your childhood soccer games first became popular in the ’80s.
