General star wars talk/discussion/complaining

A question for the old farts like me who were there during the original theatrical release of Star Wars in 1977: Do you remember, during the Cantina sequence, an alien who drank his beverage from the top of his head? (and possibly burped). Or is that from another movie, or just my fertile imagination acting up?

I do not remember that.

Could be. I'm looking it up on the internet. Found nothing yet. I could be misremembering.

I believe you're recalling Harvey Korman's character in...

I don't remember watching the Holiday special, but this could be it! LOL

There are characters drinking through straws in the background whist another character is in the foreground. If you were very young you might have confused the perspective and thought you saw a character drinking from the top of its head.
