Pee-Wee Herman Crack Cocaine PSA (1980)

This was part of his community service when he got caught in the XXX theatre

That was a little bit creepy. Seriously!

I remember seeing this commercial, and was like "What the hell?!" at the time? (Back then, using the "F-word" was not done very often.) I asked my Mom about it, and she got all defensive. I never figured out why until later. Needless to say, my Uncle enjoyed this vice. :/

name two people
who got shot in a theater one was abe lincoln and the
other was the guy sitting infront of peewee in the first row

Kids, don't use crack, you're much better getting busted for "yanking it" in a porn theater!

HAHA @ thegreatthomaso

that movie was like a bad trip

okkkkkk....

pee wee herman should of started this comercial
todays secrect word is crack aaaww

you don't wonna end up like pee wee lol

Errr that was just plain freaky. lol

The 80's were just crack-mania. I remember being 8 years old and watching Police Officer's throwing bag's of onto the railway. They told me to "piss off"

So i kept riding my wee bicyle.

It's Ironic because in "Cheech and Chong's Nice Dreams"
he played the roll of a coke head. "you're the guy from the hamberger train, right?"

WTF, I don't even understand this...

First of all, he's wearing his undersized gray tux and we're supposed to take him seriously

Second of all, usually PSAs feature cartoons or kid icons (ala Pee Wee) when the threat is something kids might try (drinking, cigarettes) I never heard of an 8 year old trying crack

I also thought it was funny how he's like "It's not glamorous" it reminded me of Whitney Houston when she said she didn't do crack because it was cheap haha

is it just me or was it creepy that they had pewe do a serious commercial

Do you mean his career or his life? Last I heard he was busted in a kiddie porn ring.

Although this is a serious comercial crimsonwolf and patmanpatboy, the laugh would have made the comercial less serious, I however want to say (on a not so serious note) that crack did kill him, it even ruined his carrere, and the crack that killed him was his oen when he got caught for his "indecent exposure" incident.

best psa.. EVAR

This is funny...especially since he was in Blow...

Paul Rubens- "This is crack."

Audience- "HI CRACK!!!"

The only reason he did this is because the courts made him do it after his movie theater adventure.

I'm Paul Reubens saw ALOT of drug abuse during his career and maybe that prompted him to do this PSA.

Drug PSA's were always known to be unsettling, but this...Pee-Wee Herman, in deadpan, talking to us about the dangers of crack? I wonder whose idea this was?

It works for me, though.
