Win Some Star Wars Card Trader Digital Card Packs

I'm going to be posting a lot about Star Wars in general and The Force Awakens in these next few days as we approach next Friday's premiere. So let's start with a little giveaway. If you are a fan of Star Wars Card Trader you can win three packs of digital cards by leaving a comment to this post with your first Star Wars memory. I'll take all the entries over the next couple days and randomize them and find a winner.



My first Star Wars memory was of my my Dad taking me to see Return of the Jedi around 1985 or 1986 when it was being re-shown in theaters again. It was being screened at the small theater at the local university in my hometown and, while I remember going, my Dad frequently reminds me I was describing to him and just about everyone else in the theater what was happening on the screen from moment to moment. I was a big fan of "Rootie-Dootie" at the time and would yell it every time the droid appeared on screen.

I can remember going to the drive-in in Indianapolis in my parents huge station wagon and watching the original Star Wars. I was about 4 and fell asleep about 10 minutes in, but I remember C3PO and R2D2 up on the screen. I can't wait for the Force Awakens we are visiting my wifes family for Christmas which means free baby sitters and I've already told her that we are going dinner and a movie. She gets to pick where we go for dinner and I've already proclaimed the movie will be Episode 7.
It was my mom making me rent "The Empire Strikes Back" VHS from the library.

Earliest?? Got to admit, it wasn't opening day, but I was in a theater in May of 1977...
Second movie I ever saw at the local drive in! I was blown away from the very beginning.
