Funny fads

Among the funniest fads that were popular in the 1950’s was telephone booth stuffing that was first made by college students and then spread in different countries around the world such as South Africa, Durban, Canada, Britain and United States. People were squeezing themselves inside the telephone booth until there is no place for more people to come inside. It was like a competition among students across the world as they were trying to set a world record and beat the records of others. Unfortunately, this fad did not last for a long time and it quickly disappeared in 1959.
