Well, a pair of tickets to any of the shows at Asheville Pizza and Brewing won’t set you back much, but let’s face it, you’re definitely going to want to make it to Fast Times at Ridgemont High and you might as well get in free. It’s an under-watched, under-appreciated, under-rated classic for underdogs and those of us that root for them. And after all, as our tame, hirsute movie critic, Scott Douglas, said: Fast Times is “arguably the quintessential ’80s high school movie — the impact of its unflinching look at suburban adolescence has not diminished with time.”
So it’s time to set the dial on the way-back machine to the crazy ’80s and have a fun ride with Spicoli and the gang.
“What are you, people? On dope?”
Comment before midnight on Sunday, April 9, for a chance to win a pair of tickets to the April 13, 7 p.m. showing.
Well heck, put me in coach!
I would have entered if this included pizza and beer but it doesn’t.
The throwback movies this month at ABC are fantastic choices!…. So interesting that this film was made after Cameron Crowe went undercover at a San Diego high school and wrote a book about the experience!
As a member of the generation of boys that entered puberty because Phoebe Cates’ bikini scene, I would like to say “Aloha, Mr Hand!” is the greatest beer name I’ve ever heard. I’m dusting off my Vans because “Danger is my business, Stu!”
