Celebrating the 40th Anniversary of Police Academy!

What an Institution!

This hilarious movie had its theatrical release on March 23, 1984.

This is a poster for the movie “Police Academy”.

 

“Back in 1984, things were looking up, at least in my little corner of the world. This was the time when my decade-long dance with “The Beautiful Game” would begin and when I also mastered some totally rad tricks on my Raleigh BMX. 1984 was when I became lifelong friends with Ren McCormack, Officers Jones, Mahoney and Tackleberry, Daniel LaRusso, Professors Venkman, Stantz, and Spengler, and later, the one and only, Axel Foley.”

 

“…So, there I was, standing at a musical crossroads. I couldn’t play the guitar and apparently, also didn’t sing very well. The odds of me ever taking the main stage were quickly fading. The stage door was closing. But what my teachers didn’t know and my friends did was that I could generate a wide array of tones, noises, and sounds with my mouth. While not to the level of the great Michael Winslow, a couple of years later, I did manage to imitate our school’s staticky intercom and successfully called our elderly history teacher to the principal’s office on a couple of occasions. Seriously, another true story. A new door was opening and I was on my way to becoming somewhat of a sonic legend…”
