If you’re anywhere near the small town of Petaluma just north of San Francisco this weekend, be sure to stop in and take part in the 35th anniversary celebration of George Lucas’ iconic 1973 film American Graffiti.

Early birds have already witnessed a full re-enactment of the famous police car axle-yank in the small hours Thursday morning with several more events planned for Friday and Saturday, May 16th and 17th.

Admission is free, with cruisin’ parties, cast and crew events, and special collectibles available exclusively at the event. For more information, check the schedule of events here.
