if you’re in sf and have the opportunity to visit this museum, DO IT! right now (and since 2020) there is an exhibition commemorating the life and legacy of Bruce Lee. If you’re lucky enough like we were you’d probably run into the best tourist guide ever aka JEFF (he give tours on wednesdays and saturdays). i knew bruce lee was an icon, but Jeff and his bruce lee collection really got to me, and it made me realize how admirable and what an incredible human being he was. Jeff talks with so much passion about this topic and he’s just a great person to have a conversation with. Also keep an eye on this exhibition and the soon to be bruce lee statue in china town!
