Throwback Thursday: The Pee Wee Herman Dinosaurs

The dinosaurs featured in the weirdo-classic Pee Wee’s Big Adventure are officially known as the Cabazon Dinosaurs. I knew I wanted to see them in person when I was a little kid. I got there in 2005, as the date stamp on my photo prints that were later scanned note. They’re in Cabazon, California near Palm Springs.

What I now know is that they are a creationist museum, which is creepy.  But nonetheless, to me they’re the Pee Wee Herman dinosaurs… where Pee Wee asked about Simone’s big but.
