Hardcore Pornographic Root Beer Stand
We just arrived in Vancouver after a 2,200-mile drive that began in Madison, WI. We're on the road screening the 1985 sex comedy, "Computer Beach Party." The Stranger declared it a "dry heave of a sex comedy." The Portland Mercury described it as "colossally terrible, a movie devoid of plot or logic or even technical competence." And we couldn't be happier with the reviews! The film's cinematic abuses include amateurish dubbing and two numbers by the heavy metal band Panther, and then there's the plot involving two computer geeks' attempt to thwart an evil, although "highly respected," mayor turned beach developer.
On our three-day drive, we saw one World's Largest Six Pack, one 60-foot-tall Jolly Green Giant, and the World's Only Corn Palace. We saw the Wall Drug dinosaur and the Silver Dollar Bar! We stopped in to Crazy Mike's Video in Missoula, Montana, and grabbed a drink at the world's only hardcore root beer stand (as far as we know). Oh, and almost forgot to mention that we won $250 on one pull-tab at the Eagle's Nest Sports Bar & Grill in LaCrosse, Wisconsin. All in all, a good trip so far.
Here are some photo highlights:
