I'm really shocked at how my brother was treated at the Terre Haute AMC 12 theater today. Here is what happened - my brother and I wanted to see the new Avengers movie. We got there around 3:10PM. The movie started at 3:30pm. We buy the tickets but since the movie does not start for another fifteen minutes we simply walk around the lobby, from one end of the theater to the next. I've done this many times in the past. So has my brother. All we were doing was wasting time walking buy all the room from one end to the other and seeing what movies were playing. We did not go into any theater room.
So, I tell my brother I'm going to the bathroom and then we can buy our cokes and head to the theater room. I go to the bathroom and walk out and my brother is furious. He said one of the kid workers came up and told him he had to either sit down on a bench in the lobby or go to the theater room and sit down but no walking around in the lobby.
So I went up to the desk where the manager was and said who in the hell told my brother he can't walk around out here? The clown manager said they have some kind of policy where you have to go into the theater room and sit or sit down on a bench in the lobby, but no walking around! Then my brother said "Do I look like a f*cking kid? I'm a grown adult!" Then I told the manager I have been there many times the last ten years spending lots of money and buying lots of snacks and I have never been told I could not walk around and waste a few minutes before the movie started.
We wanted our money back and it was returned. I told that clown two or three times I've been to that theater many times with family and friends and have never caused problems. I and my family only want to enjoy a movie and have a nice time. We are not hoodlums or punks. All we wanted to do is see the new Avengers movie and spend money on some snacks.
So we got our money back and walked out. I can't believe the disrespect they gave my brother and myself. And to think I go to that theater six to twelve times a year.
