Filming sites from “Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure” are paying their respects to the passing of Paul Reubens.
If you remember in the movie, Pee-Wee goes to the Alamo in Texas after a fortune teller falsely tells him his bike is there in the basement.
Well, the Alamo posted a statement saying, quote, “Since 1985, not a day has passed without visitors consistently inquiring about the location of the basement at the Alamo . . .
“This tradition owes its origins to the comedic acting of Mr. Paul Reubens. We are immensely grateful for his unforgettable contribution to Alamo pop culture. However, we can confirm that while there is not a basement in the Alamo Church, there is one next door, under our gift shop! May he rest in peace.”
Another scene from the movie features a large T-Rex sculpture from Cabazon Dinosaurs in southern California. Mr. Rex was repainted to wear the iconic grey suit and red bow tie, with a red heart and Pee-Wee’s name on his belly.
For those interested in seeing their Pee-Wee tribute, it’ll be up until October 30th.
