Today, I went to see Terminator. Not wanting to spend an outrageous amount of money at the concession stand, I sneaked a Dr. Pepper into the theater. I thought I had gotten away with it, until I opened the bottle and it exploded all over me and four other people that I didn't know. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I went to see a movie. After getting my seat, I went out to get food. Coming back, I saw the security guard. Thinking he would ask me for my ticket, I moved all the food to one hand to get the ticket in my pocket. I spilled it all. He didn't ask to see it. FML
Today, I tried to sneak a burrito into a movie theater by hiding it in my jacket. Halfway through the trailers, the foil popped loudly, and the burrito slid out and rolled down the sloped aisle like a tiny log. The theater lights were still on, people turned to watch, so I pretended it wasn’t mine. FML
Today, I was at a concert and the guy who was selling the drinks tripped and fell down the stairs, landing on the floor next to me and the drinks went all over. I went to make sure he was okay and helped pick up the drinks. After assuring me he was okay, he gave me a free soda. It exploded. FML
Today, I went to the movies with some friends. During the movie, I really needed to pee but didn’t want to disturb anyone. So, I waited and waited. Finally, I couldn’t hold it anymore and bolted to the bathroom… only to get locked out of the theater in the process. The staff had to escort me back in during the end credits. FML
Today, I was at a movie theater. I heard some obnoxious people talking in front of me. After about 5 minutes, I began throwing popcorn at a group of suspected people. As I was escorted out, I realized that the obnoxious people were in the background of the movie. FML
Today, I was having a rough day, so I decided to go to the movies to unwind. 15 minutes in, some assmunch behind me said "This movie sucks!" then dumped his drink over my head and ran out. FML
Today, at the movies on a date, I drank all my soda and waited too long. I couldn't take it anymore and quickly got up, knocking my date's popcorn on the floor, and ran to the bathroom. I didn’t make it and went home in shame. It’s better he thinks I stood him up. FML
Today, I saw Avatar in iMax 3D. Towards the end of the movie I jump, yelled, and spilled my drink all over the people in front of me because I thought a burning piece of ash landed on my leg. FML
Today, while walking down the aisle of a movie theatre, I passed gas so loudly that the audience missed the climax of the film laughing at me. FML
Today, I was craving a cold Coke, so I grabbed one from the freezer where I had put it to chill quickly. As soon as I opened it, the can exploded all over me and the kitchen. I spent the next hour cleaning sticky residue off the floor, surrounding furniture, and even the ceiling. FML

I do this all the time. I'm too cheap to pay 5 dollars for a soda.

What's with the sneaking in?? I bring mine in my hand as I walk in every time, fully visible, and no one has ever said anything. They don't care. I even bring popcorn (Though the popcorn I usually have in a bag.) It wouldn't have happened if you hadn't snuck it in, shaking it in the process. XD Still, at least you got to see Terminator. ;)

How does Dr Pepper explode over four people? That's some scary drink you've got there

Now you see, I actually paid for my drink (also a Dr. Pepper) AND I got to watch the movie in peace. Not that it matters, cause the movie was merely okay. Not amazing, just okay.

YDI for sneaking a drink into the theatre. Concession prices are so high because theatres make almost nothing off ticket sales. Almost all of the price you pay for admission goes to the movie companies. That means the concession is the only real source of revenue for the theatre. That's the reason most theatres are so strict about their outside food and drink policies. If it wasn't for all the ppl that line up at the concession movie ticket prices would likely more than double. All you whiney ppl out there who complain about the prices and are too cheap to pay them aren't paying your fair share. In effect it is almost the same as stealing. The movie companies get their money...but the theatre gets no compensation for the service you are taking from them.

Dr. Pepper always explodes, it's really fizzy. Open it in the parking lot to let out the fizz, then close it back going into the theater.

i work at an amc theater and we dont care if you bring in stuff as long as its not loud or smells so you dont need to sneak in your sodas.

A normal-sized personal bottle won't explode like that to other people, maybe yourself and a neighbor, but definitely not 4 people. A two liter bottle without waiting a few seconds? Really? YDI.
