I opened mine when i got home from work. Just me and my parents and maybe one brother around. I opened it and then we ate dinner. It was nothing special.

My roommate at BYU my freshmen year, we lived in Helaman Halls, opened his with a couple of the guys on the floor around and on the phone with his folks. One of the other kids there videoed it and I watched it later when i got back from class. As he got to the here by called to serve in the (fill in the blank mission) part he paused and you could see his shoulders drop and the wind go out of his sails and he mumbled the Idaho Pocatello Mission. The was an awkward silence in the room for a few seconds then everyone gave a half hearted cheer. It was a funny scene and I still chuckle about it.
