This Tuesday at 7:00pm we’re doing a special, one-time screening of the all-time classic SMOKEY & THE BANDIT to celebrate the life of Burt Reynolds.
It’s one of the funniest and best car chase movies ever created. It made Burt Reynolds an international movie star and reinvigorated the career of Jackie Gleason who turns in his funniest role ever as Sheriff Buford T. Justice.
KNOW SOMEONE WHO HAS THE BANDIT’S TRANS AM?
If so, then please contact us at wyman@ashevillebrewing.com. We hope to have the Trans Am in front of the building for the screening, and will hook up the owner for bringing it.
