The movie theater was silent except for the guy coughing and hacking
My wife and I decided to take the kids to the movies a few weeks ago.
We went on opening night to take the kids to see the new Disney and Pixar movie. I knew that the movie theater was going to be crowded and filled with people. I told my wife that we needed to arrive early in order to get seats in the middle where we would have a good view. When we arrived at the theater, the boys decided that they wanted to sit all the way in the last row at the back of the theater. I didn’t mind sitting back there. I didn’t mind the seating arrangement at all, as long as we weren’t right up underneath the screen. I was afraid that would happen if we showed up late. The theater filled up very quickly and it wasn’t long before people were searching for a seat here and a seat there. The kids had eaten most of their snacks by the time the movie started. When the lights went down and the sound came on, I started hearing the sound of a person that was coughing loudly. I could tell that the direction of the coughing person was coming from the front of the room. Then I saw a light green flashing light. Then I heard more coughing. It wasn’t very hard for me to realize that the person who was coughing and hacking was smoking recreational and medical marijuana in the theater. I told my wife that I was going to get up and I would be right back. She told me not to get in the middle of it, but we were watching a kids movie and I didn’t think it was appropriate for someone to be using marijuana products in the theater.
