41. I was in high school when Blazing Saddles was released. A friend and I went to see it at the local small town theater.

There is a scene in which Hedley Lamarr is engaged in a monologue. All the while he is fondling a female statuette. My friend and I were howling with laughter and the rest of the audience had no idea why.
