[edit] Change to Trivia
This line:
- The scene shot at Skip's Blue Moon Diner was filmed in Gardner, Massachusetts.
Has been changed to:
- The scene shot at Skip's Blue Moon Diner was filmed in Leominster, Massachusetts.
Because I was personally there when they filmed this scene, as I was living in Leominster at the time. Interesting personal antecdote: I figured watching a movie get filmed would be exciting and thrilling, but it turned out to be frightfully dull. The actually filming took 5-10 seconds each take, followed by 5-10 minutes where they'd set everything back up again to re-take the scene... Rinse, repeat for several different shots. I got bored after an hour, and went home.
Anyway, it was definately shot in Leominster. The diner used for shooting is still there, although it looks slightly different than in the film (and its not called Blue Moon). -- Ubergenius 16:22, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
Someone changed it back to the correct location. I really was there when the scene was filmed in downtown Gardner in October of 1991. Perhaps the above person was there as well, but is mistaken on the location. Skip's Blue Moon Diner is still located in dwontown Gardner. The Skip's Blue Moon sign near the sidewalk was added for the movie. Previous to October 1991, the diner was simply called Blue Moon. I hung out in Leominster and Fitchburg all the time growing up, the Punk and Hard core shows at Club 490 in Fitchburg, the Dunkin's at the bottom on Priest St. toward downtown in Leominster....but on that night in October 1991 my friends and I were in Gardner outside the Blue Moon Diner which is still located there.
