Pretty Much All The Cassettes & Decks From Wet Hot American Summer
8.2.15 by Mike Haley

What makes a hero? Does running into a burning building to save a puppy make one a hero? Sounds like more of a show off if you ask me. What about someone who goes back in time with the mission to run into a burning building and NOT save Hitler’s puppy? No, true heroism takes more than that. A person must go above and beyond what others are willing to do for the betterment of humankind. I am a hero. I am a hero because I watched the shit out of David Wain and Michael Showalter’s Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp, a prequel to the 2001 film Wet Hot American Summer, and griped screenshots of pretty much every cassette, boombox, 8-track, and tape related thing I could find. As far as I know, this is the world’s most definitive list of the kind. And here it is, for this generation, and all future generations with a decent Wi-Fi signal.
