What things do you think every lover of retro pop culture should experience at least once in his or her lifetime? What things do you think fans of retro pop culture would enjoy experiencing? Let's make a list. Quote |

I would say watching every John Hughes film at least once.
You love this signature.

Another one would be to meet a celebrity from a TV show or movie that was a big part of your youth. With a lot of pop culture conventions popping up all over the place, this one is more doable now than ever before.

Eating at a 50's style diner or a restaurant from a retro movie/tv show (like Tom's Diner from Seinfeld, for example)
The women of New Vegas ask me a lot if there's a Mrs. New Vegas. Well, of course there is! You're her. And you're still just as perfect as the day we met.

I think visiting film locations of your favorite movies is a good bucket list item. This January I went to the Christmas Story house which was awesome. |

So we had lots of celebrities come in to surprise fans of the film. As an employee, we were instructed not to interact with the celebrities. Anyhow, Arnold came in to the empty theater lobby all by himself like a badass and was literally ten feet away from me. We looked at each other and did a nod and smile. Later on, he was about to go in to a movie theater and one of his security detail said no and Arnold I shit you not said, "Don't be a girly man" LOL |

Go to a concert where a band or solo artist you were into during your youth is performing.
