Juke joint
In the sixth grade we had a juke box in the school lunchroom. I remember hearing all the hits from the time over a square piece of pizza and corn.
Exile Kiss you all over
Bee Gees Tragedy
A taste of honey Boogie oogie oogie
But my favortie was Soul man as performed by the Blues Brothers. Me and Kent Taylor would sing along, and cement our reputation as dorks.

In 5th grade we had flags in the cafeteria. Green = you could talk, yellow = it is getting too loud and red = silence. We would often steal the flags after school. But, dangit, another laminated construction paper flag would show up the next day.

We had one light bulb- Red- Silence. One of the teachers would start to walk over to it and we would all be quiet and she would turn around and sit down. It was a lovely little game we played. When I start looking for schools for my foster kids I will be checking for a juke box- That Rocks! :)
We had the flag system in our cafeteria too, but no jukebox.
My fondest and most embarrasing memory of my elementary school cafeteria was talent day. The cafeteria had a stage and served as our elementary school's auditorium. A section of my 6th Grade class, including me, performed a dumb acrobatic routine that was set to music. There was jumping, leap frogging and somersaults. And it all happened while Randy Newman's "Short People" was playing.
That cracks me up, it sounds so Napoleon Dynamite.
