Movie Theatre Cop Fail

  1. I've been busy the past couple nights so I'm finally getting around to posting this now.

    So Thursday night I go to my friend D's house, I get there to my friends N and T also there. So I go down to D's basement watch the new South Park, pound some nattys and smoke. We're just talking about N going away on vacation till Monday when a commercial for Jackass 3D comes on. Now don't get me wrong I love Jackass but my boys N and T look at each other and mention going to see the midnight show. I check up to see if it's playing near us sure enough it is, we bounce at 11:15 an hour after I pounded 5 Nattys. Now we all hop into N's ride and we head over to the theatre, 2 joints rolled for each of us before the show.

    This is where I start to get that "fuck!" feeling as if I just forgot something and halfway through the ride sure enough I forgot my licence proving my age so I wouldn't get hassled. N gives me his extra permit he had in his wallet, no biggy. We smoke up and go in to buy the ticket, I buy mine and didn't even get I.D'ed by the lady at the counter. Now if anyone is familiar with the theatre chain Regal, they are synonymous with being assholes without being proper age/I.D.

    So we go past the initial ticket taker, he tells us where the theatre is at and we start walking forward. Bam! There's a line and cops at the front of the line checking I.D's. So Now I'm kinda sweating it, but keeping it cool N and I tell D and T to go ahead because they had proper I.D. They did indeed go ahead of us but because we just blazed they got taken off to the side by these 2 complete asshole cops just questioning them about what they were doing before to try to get them to confess to smoking. They didn't and were let in. Well N and I dipped to the bathroom to decide what we were gonna do, we decided to just go in 5 mins apart.

    So N gets in without any hassle and its my turn 5 minutes after. I go, hand the cop "my licence" and he immediately calls my bluff. He asked me the birthday on the card and I did froze up and couldn't think of it. He starts going on about how he could haul me in for it and started asking where I got it. I told him that I found it on the sidewalk before I came in and answered this the 10 other times he asked the same question. The best part about it was that when I was asked how I got the ticket with that I.D, I told him I didn't even get I.d'ed and he started calling me a liar. I told him to take me up front and ask and she said she didn't I.D me and she was saving it for the cops, ya Bullshit! He asks my name, I give him my info and he runs it, ya know just so I could maybe see the movie. He makes me sit down while he runs it and it comes up that I am indeed the age I said I was and that all the info I told him about me was correct.

    Now he starts asking if I drank, I told him no. He says I'm lying and that he smells vodka on my breathe. I just denied it, every time he asked then he moved onto the whole drug questioning. literally 20 times I was asked "so how many drugs did you do tonight" I denied any sort of accusation and kept asking if I could just go see the movie.

    He was convinced it was N's I.D so he said "I'll let you go but you better tell your friend if he wants his licence back to see him after the movie for it." It was his permit so I just walked away saying "Yeh ok officer I'll go do that as soon as I sit down" watched the movie and dipped out the back exit to outside to avoid any kind of cop encounter.

    I was furious after because two cops are being put to waste at a fucking movie to check I.D's.
     
  2. Damm man thats crazy, at least all of you kept your composure though
     
  3. God damn, shouldn't the cops be out, I don't know, catching criminals? For some reason I thought that was their job...
     
  4. I've never seen or heard of police checking IDs at any movie theater around me, must've been a good movie
     
  5. I used to work at a place here in arizona, its a mostly local chain called harkins. They used to have an officer there mostly too enforce the curfew I think for underage kids. He never checked tickets but I wouldnt be surprised...
     
  6. movie theaters are privately owned businesses and the only way the cops would be there is because the movie theater hired the cops for the night.

    i wish cops would work at my local theater because last time i went to see jackass 2 was during the week, and a local school system must have had the next day off. there was a theater full of 12 year olds watching an R rated movie. it almost ruined the movie because 12 year old will laugh there ass off if someone smiles at them and makes a funny face.

    When i watch R rated movies i expect everyone else there to be an adult and act like an adult.
     
  7. Why the hell are there cops at the movie theater?
    Do cops have nothing better to do than bust people for stupid shit?

    Wow they seemed to really be hassling you, not fun. :(
     

  8. For whatever reason, every Regal movie theatre I've ever been at in VA has a whole bunch of cops sitting outside the theatre, as well as walking around inside. Doesn't happen at AMC or anywhere else. Just Regal.
     

  9. Exactly, they were try to be bad ass saying
    "If this wasn't a movie theatre we'd be hauling your ass to the holding cell for false identity"

    at one point I even said "If this wasn't a theatre I wouldn't be in this position."

    Yeh same around here, its just Regal that has the police force
     

  10. Thats bull. There are better things for them to be doing.
     
  11. What the hell? I've never heard of cops checking I.D.'s at movie theaters. That's some crazy shit.
     

  12. Exactly, like go bust a meth lab or something
