This Is What Happened When the Doughnut Shop from ‘Wayne’s World’ Came to Life

For 18 glorious hours this past weekend, fans of the NHL and 'Wayne’s World' were able to relive their favorite scenes from the film and gorge on free doughnuts and coffee.

This weekend, something extraordinary happened. In the words of Wayne Campbell of  Wayne's World, it was "something big, something mega, something copious, something capacious, something cajunga." Stan Mikita's All-Star Cafe became a reality. For 18 glorious hours, fans of hockey and  Wayne's World were able to gorge on complimentary doughnuts and coffee while overlooking downtown LA's skyline, all while meeting some of their favorite hockey players and celebrities in the process. The pop-up doughnut shop was complete with air hockey tables, an autograph booth, and even a "Wayne Gretsky 3-D Hockey" arcade. The free event was held in front of the Los Angeles convention center in celebration of the 2017 NHL All-Star game. It was presented by Honda, in collaboration with  Sports Illustrated and  Entertainment Weekly to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the beloved film and 100th anniversary of the NHL. On opening night, thousands drove in from all around Southern California to relive their favorite scenes in the movie, including many parents who were passing on their love of  Wayne's World and doughnuts to their children.
