    • If you really want to impress your friends, get a copy of "The Champs" version of "Tequila" and practice the famous "Pee Wee Dance." A quick Internet search for "Pee Wee Dance" will net you several videos of Pee Wee's dance steps.

    • Consider throwing your own Pee Wee costume party and encourage your guests to dress as their favorite Pee Wee characters, such as: Cowboy Curtis, Miss Yvonne, Pteri the Pterodactyl, Randy (the resident trouble-starter,) Captain Carl, Jambi, Mrs. Rene and Reba the Mail Lady.
