80's Prom Night Trivia

This Thursday night is PROM NITE. So, we're recreating the 80's Prom experience. A great opportunity for those who want a stroll down memory lane, as well as those people who want to have a good laugh over the notion of reliving their senior prom. All in the name of fun either way. Time for me to dust off the tux and grab that copy of "Pretty In Pink." Of course, that timeless John Hughes classic is the ultimate 80's Prom film, but it's been the subject of our Prom Nite trivia challenge FAR too many times in the past. After all, there are other 80's Prom films, even if they aren't as well known. Back in 1988, there was a movie called "The Night Before" that tells the story of a character named Winston Connelly who scores a date for the Prom with the most popular girl in school (because she lost a bet, basically). But poor Winston gets sidetracked on his way to the dance and wakes up in an alley with no idea how he got there. The actor who played Winston Connelly in "The Night Before" is a big star now, what is his name?

Bonus Question: Back in 1984, C. Thomas Howell played a guy who also gets sidetracked on his way to the Prom. He ends up befriending a pair of demolition derby promoters played by Jamie Lee Curtis and Patrick Swayze, and they work together to save the Derby from being shut down by the callous townfolk. What was the name of the film?
