Movies

Fast and Furious is a movie me and my two friends have been trying to see for quite a few weeks now. The first time we went to go see it, the movie times on the internet were different from the time the movie actually started. So we got our money refunded and went to see a different movie. However, that is not what the problem is.

Last week we had decided to go see it at the Bayshore Theater. The movie was set to start at about 10:30pm. We got there and went straight for the kiosks where you purchase the tickets. It took us about 10 minutes to figure out the kiosks until we actually got our tickets. This whole time there was a man standing behind the desk about five feet from us. He didn't say anything to us while we were trying to get our tickets, but as soon as we walked past he asked us how old we were and we told him we were 19.

He replied to us by telling us we could not see this movie because we weren't 21, and after 7pm nobody under 21 is allowed in the movie theater. This is because there is a bar across from the theater. This man had to refund our money because he just sat there and stared at us while we tried to get our tickets. He couldn't say anything then?

I think that is a ridiculous rule. Especially since it goes in affect at 7pm. This was a weekday we went on too, so I could understand maybe 9pm for a time, but 7? The part that really bothers me is that this man couldn't say anything to us while we were waiting. I was, and am still debating about writing in with my complaint to the manager of the theater complex.
