Do theater employees give a damn if people sneak in their own candy/snacks? When I was a kid, late 80’s, my brother and I went to the theater. We snuck in our own candy (probably not as sneaky as we thought we were. We couldn’t afford the theater candy.

A theater employee told us that knew what we were doing, that we had to leave or throw it away. They actually seemed offended and upset. I don’t think it was a manager from what I recall. Looking back, I wonder why they cared.

I understand that executives care because they get revenue from snacks more than the tickets. Do you al care at all?
