Do we have any Porky’s historians here ?? One of the best movies of its generation.
The film grossed $7.6 million for the weekend when it opened wide in 1982.[14] It grossed a total of $106 million in its initial release in the United States and Canada,[14] including $12 million in Canada.[15] It grossed $25–30 million overseas, for a worldwide gross of over $130 million.[15] Although it was written and directed by an American and was filmed in Miami and Miami Beach Florida, Porky's was produced by the Canadian company Astral Media.[5] As a result, Porky's can be classed as the highest-grossing Canadian film of all time in the United States and Canada, with a total of C$111 million by 1999,[16] including $6 million from a 1983 re-issue prior to the release of the sequel.[14]

Including the re-issue, the film grossed $160 million worldwide.
