Nickelodeon Takes Over Your School | Retro Junk Commercial

I feel like Nickelodeon should have taken over my school way back then me and my old Durand Academy buddies would've had a blast

Wow, I remember watching these and wishing Nick would take over my boring school. Never happened though, saying I was only in 3rd or 4th grade at the time.

their decision to stop doing this contest could not have come at a worse time, kids need a break now more than ever, (you wouldn't believe some of the stories i've heard, there r actually many elementary schools around the country that have put an end to recess.)

meaning the classroom in the ad.

what the heck did they do to the classroom? LOLOL!

Nick came to my school a good few years ago. It was ok. They had alot of the stars and characters running around during the day. Basically, it was a couple 2 hour assemblys in the gym (entire school could not fit in at once). They slimed some teachers and gave everyone t-shirts and junk to go with it. The commercial looks more exciting than it really is. But hey, 2 hours less of doing work.

ok. at :09 seconds in, what was that stuff in the back of the classroom? and i mean in the VERY back. (i'm guessing those were logos for nick shows. but which ones, of course assuming that i was right.)

reason being, in her house, nickelodeon was not allowed. (she thought that those shows were inappropriate for kids.)

why would they be upset? i'm sure that they probably watched nickelodeon with their kids, and besides, don't they deserve a break? (in fact i wouldn't be surprised to find out that any of the teachers at the winning schools asked for autographs of the stars (for their kids of course.) and i wanted to enter but my principal said no.)

I wonder if any teachers were angry at Nick for being slimed. Also, did they ask the school's permission before they did that? I mean, wouldn't most teachers be unhappy about disrupting their lessons for their students to just play and goof around all day?

As a kid, I always dreamed of winning this contest and having Nickelodeon take over my school. Sadly, I never won!

My best friend's school won one of these contests several years ago. He said he had a blast with it.
