Furthermore, fans can insert themselves into iconic scenes from the show such as the "Pivot" scene or pretend to be Joey wearing "everything Chandler owns" for an unforgettable photo-op. And, if you just want to lounge around at Central Perk or Joey-Chandler's apartment, that's cool too.

Notably, Janice, Maggie Wheeler, said, "It's rare to be able to walk into a set, a place that lives in your memory... and feel yourself living in the environment where these characters lived."
She added, "I think people are going to really flip out and I think they're going to have so much fun, it's going to be hard to get people to leave."

The impressive detailing even stunned James Michael Tyler, who played Gunther on F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Tyler said, "It's really surreal... this particular pop up is far more elaborate than the ones that we've had in the past. This is literally like a F.R.I.E.N.D.S museum."

Interestingly, The One with the Pop-up was created as an experimental project by the entertainment company Superfly, in collaboration with Warner Bros., which produced F.R.I.E.N.D.S from 1994-2004.
The F.R.I.E.N.D.S pop-up opened on Saturday, and will run through October 6, AP reported.
However, if you hadn't already booked a ticket, you may be out of luck.
