What were some major events in ponyboy curtis life?
Here are some event. Major ones are in bold;-His mother and father died.-When Darry Curtis, his brother, slapped him so hard he crashed down on the floor. This happened because Ponyboy came home late after falling asleep in the lot after talking to Johnny. Sodapop tried to stand up for Ponyboy, but Darry yelled at him. After this, Ponyboy yelled "Don't you yell at him!" then yeah...Darry slapped him hard. Ponyboy then ran out of the house and told Johnny, who was sleeping, "Come on Johnny, we are running away!" Johnny was not reluctant to run away.-When the Socs (the drunk ones; a.k.a. Cherry's ex-boyfriend, Bob) tried to drown Ponyboy.-(very major) When Johnny killed the Soc that was drowning Ponyboy, and was going to beat Johnny up, Ponyboy was so sickened by the dead body of Bob, he threw up. This resulted in Johnny and Ponyboy going to where Dally was, and ask him for advice. Dally gave Johnny a gun, which was loaded, and gave Ponyboy a new, dry, but huge, shirt.-The church fire (the place where Ponyboy and Johnny were hiding) when both Johnny and Ponyboy almost died. Johnny was the one that was injured so badly; his back was broken. Ponyboy knew that if he survived, he wouldn't be able to do anything really.-When Johnny died. It was so sad in the movie when Johnny died after telling Ponyboy to 'Stay Gold, Ponyboy. Stay Gold." I felt so bad for Ponyboy, so that was a big major event in Ponyboy's life.I might've missed some major events. That's all I can think of now. Oh, also when Cherry Valance told Ponyboy she didn't want to see Johnny before he died, that was a major event. I bet Ponyboy was thinking; it was all your boyfriend Bob's fault. ALSO, when Dally died as well. This is my favorite book of all time. I could read it 3 times if I had to it's so good. Stay Gold. :)~KatieHope this helped, and I hope it's not too much info.

In the outsiders What if the church never caught on fire?
Then Johnny would still be alive, so would Dally. Ponyboy and Johnny would stay in hiding because then they wouldn't be considered heroes and be kind of excused from their crime. If they were ever found they would be in more trouble than when they saved the kids from the fire.
