    So we have a rather slow day at the theater, most of us are just laughing amongst ourselves and having circle jerk offs or whatever you guys will transform this into. It came to our attention that a dog was coming in, with it's blind owner. We can't just make the owner go away, it's a handicapped, that's called getting sued city. When she walks in, I look at her and mostly her over weight labrador retriever. Not because he was cute, he was, but because he was simply walking around the lobby eating popcorn off the floor and leading her to each new piece he found. It was so embarrassing, we were trying not to laugh as it would make us horrible people, but shit, it took us a while to muster up courage and actually tell her what was going on.

    I wish it ended there, she took in gently, actually finding it funny. The problem was the movie she was seeing. Can you guess it? No? Well it was Hotel for Dogs, see the problem yet. About 15 minutes after the show starts we get a complaint that a dog was barking in the movie, we say we will investigate, feeling it being that there was dogs on the screen and he thought it sounded real. Nope, it was the seeing eye lady and her dog barking up a storm as she laughed. We had to ask her to leave, which she was rather resilient too, saying she paid for the movie. After she finally left we put together a conclusion that we shouldn't feel bad as she can just go home and put on animal planet for the same dog barking at screen hi jinks.

    Do you guys mess with the food there? I remember a few years back when I was still in high school , my friends who worked at the theater would do the nastiest stuff with some people's food there, I couldnt believe how sick that stuff was they did to it, like throwing the hot dogs on the floor and selling them. Dont get me started on bodily fluids....

    She may not have been blind... I found a harness for a seeing eye dog one time at a flea market... and rigged it up to fit my St. Bernard... I would wear my knock off Chanel sun glasses.. and take him places. I only did it like 2 times... but would have a lot more...until I got the fear of oneday- really being blind.

    What was funny was people laughing at me, as I put in the car , looked in the mirror to apply some lipstick, and drove off...

    Reminds me of that shitty question, "Which would you rather be? Deaf or blind?"

    Don't get me wrong, it was very sad that she was blind, but the dog was just eating the popcorn. It was so cute, but at the same time a bit funny. I just find humor in everything.

    And no, I never do that to our product.
