They determined that eating ice cream doesn't make enough noise. It's not as disturbing to others as eating popcorn or chips and it doesn't even come in a brittle wrapper that will make a lot of noise opening it. No point in selling silent food in Broadway theatres!
Last year I watched some ass hat eat a burrito in his seat. Not only did ot smell bad but he dumped the majority of it down his front and on the seat next to his. Eat before the theater.
Last night in front of me at Penn & Teller was a family of about 6, complete with three generations. Two strikes against them. The young boy (9 or 10) needed everything explained to him and grandma was all too happy to comply. AND they brought a huge bag of goodies which constantly got passed around throughout the performance. It was pretty damn annoying.
But we digress.
If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it?
These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.
I also wish there was no eating or drinking at all. Do that before or after.. it's not a movie.. it's live theatre and even if your trying to be quiet.. it will still be annoying.
