Poorman’s 15 Minutes of Fame: Tommy Gelinas (Founder & Curator of Valley Relics Museum)
“Basically, when you walk in, you enter through our gift shop, and then the first part of the museum is a lot of props from movies like the Bad News Bears, like physical actual screen used props, also Fast Times at Ridgemont High, a huge collection that Danny Boyd from House of Payne donated. And then we have the original Fast Times at Ridgemont High bus that was in the movie. And so it kind of starts off that way. And then there’s like a whole BMX section, all the BMX bikes from the early ‘70s into the ‘80s.”
