Saw the first falcon that landed that was put up at SpaceX HQ. It's not as big as Saturn V, but it's still humongous up close.

I also went down to Vanderberg AFB on a whim with a friend of mine to see a Falcon launch. That supersonic boom as the landing booster punched through the atmosphere, followed by smell of rocket exhaust in the cold dusk air is something I'll never forget.
