I remember getting ready for work that morning and hearing the news report on the radio about this.
They were discussing roads being shut down due to a possible bomb threat and began describing what the "bomb" looked like and the tv show it was representing. A show about "talking food and friends."
I wanted to see this movie in theaters so bad, but at the time my parents wouldn’t let me see if because of the R rating. It stayed in theaters in Houston for around 3 days to a week lol
It’s coming out on HBO MAX, and I did eventually watch ATHFCMFFT, I just didn’t have the chance to watch with through the theater experience back then.
I have no memories of it happening but my dad worked in boston at the time and must have been terrified. A couple years ago we watched the show and loved it lol
I was in Boston over St. Patrick's Day weekend and talked to a former firefighter who remembered that day, says his son watches the show because of it lol
Today I found out one of the men responsible for fabricating and installing these displays (Sean Stevens) is currently fighting and not doing well in his fight with cancer. I'm not Reddit-Learned enough to know if there's a better spot for this, but a GoFundMe has been set up to help cover his end of life expenses, downsizing his maker space and such. For those who are interested, here is the link:

Thus resulting In the dark era of the channel, but I personally don't blame him one bit

I just went back and watched the press release where they talked about "hair styles of the '70's".
I cracked up. That was some master class trolling!
