im probably one of the few here old enough to remember seeing this in the movie theaters the weekend it came out, around Thanksgiving 1985.
I was a junior in high school. My friend had a date and just like seems to happen on every sitcom, her fat cousin (fun loving with a great personality
)was in town and my friend's date would only go if he could find a date for her cousin. At least I got to see Rocky IV for free (I made my friend pay my way in for lumbering me with the fattie, who - and I'm not proud of this - I still boinked
).
