Back in the 80s when I was a teenager, it used to be a party line. It was where you would dial the number and hear other people. It was all the craze back in the day. You would flirt with the guys and possibly meet them. Kind of like an online chat room I guess.
But after about 6 months the phone company discontinued the number nationwide and the party line was no longer.
It was great fun for us 6th graders!
