Could “Friends” fans BE any luckier? Those who
have snagged tickets to the New York City Pop-
Up experience based on the comedy favorite
will get to plop down on the orange couch at
Central Perk, play foosball in Joey and Chandler’s
apartment and marvel at Rachel’s haircuts
through the show’s 10 seasons.
Visitors enter a non-descript downtown building
in a trendy Manhattan neighborhood, not unlike
where friends Monica, Rachel, Phoebe, Ross,
Joey and Chandler lived on the show, which is
celebrating its 25th anniversary later this month.
There are different sections to walk through in
8,500 square feet of loft space, where more than
50 original props from the show are on display.
James Michael Tyler, who played Gunther, the
barista forever in love with Rachel, was at a press
preview for the Pop-Up. He said he was amazed
at the detail.
