A Premiere for Cowboys
Movie premieres are generally known to be glamorous and filled with the most expensively-dressed movie stars. But when it came to be the premiere for ‘Blazing Saddles,’ guests arrived on horseback, to match the film’s theme.
Yes, we’re serious. The world premiere of the film took place on February 7, 1974, at the Pickwick Drive-In Theater in Burbank, California and there were 250 invited guests who watched the film on horseback.
