There are some films that I’ll never get tired of watching. And Point Break is one of them; hands down, an absolute favorite. So yes, I’m stoked to catch this on the big screen for the first time ever; theater hangs here I come!

Even better, Keanu Reeves is in town this week, hitting that Union Transfer stage with Dogstar! Did you know he’s in a band? Did you know you can win tickets to see this? What are you waiting for?
