What it was really like to see Star Wars in 1977

I was 7 when Star Wars came out. I first saw it with a friend and his family at a crappy shopping mall theater, but was still blown away (like many others here) by the star destroyer filling the screen. Came home and told everyone about how it was like the best movie ever. Eventually my dad took us all to see it at the late lamented Coronet Theater in San Francisco. I forget how many times I saw it. Many. We argued in school about who really saw it the most times. I think I said 15 times but I probably made that up. Or did I?
