I just remembered another favorite 80's movie. It is the reason why I love Kenny Rogers sooooo much!! Six Pack...Im not sure it was a huge hit but I remember how much I loved it as a kid. I had this little record player and had a bunch of Kenny Rogers records. You know the ones with a song on each side (cant remember what they were called...45's?)
