Blue Oyster Bar
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Blue Oyster Bar is a fictional bar, and the setting of a recurring gag-scene of the comedy movie series Police Academy.
The bar is a stereotypical hardcore gay bar, featuring patrons dressed up as bikers in leather clothing, sailors, and other gay fashion archetypes made famous by the members of the Village People.
Within the Police Academy film series, unsuspecting characters periodically enter the bar unaware of its nature (this usually happens as a prank by the lead characters). Once inside, a group of leering patrons forces the frightened victims to dance with them, invariably to a tango called "El Bimbo".
The Blue Oyster Bar only appeared in the first four Police Academy movies. Among those lured into the place were...
- Cadets Blankes and Copeland (twice in the first movie)
- Sweetchuck (as a civilian in the second movie, although he manages to escape after a brief tango)
- Proctor (in the third and fourth movies)
- Captain Harris (in the fourth movie)
