I was in 5th grade and the launch was at recess. We had indoor recess that day, typical Pennsylvania rain snow mess so Mr. Rule brought in a TV so we could watch the launch. A few friends and I were playing on the state of the art Apple II C or E when it happened. The room went silent for an eternity and one kid in my class, call him Mike, started laughing. Mr. Rule smacked him so hard he fell out of his chair.

Funny the details you remember
