That Exit door

Okay, so yesterday, in light of the tragedy in Aurora ,Colorado....I went to see The Dark Knight Rises...I decided that I was not going to let the bad guys win...I was not going to let this simple bastard, this nobody who decided that he needed attention so bad that he just through regard for human life to the wind...win.

I was not going to allow James Egan Holmes to destroy my joy , to keep me from enjoying life.  I was going to see "The Dark Knight Rises"..Damn him! I said...

After all this is Philadelphia...Philly right? Not Aurora, Colorado...This isn't going to go down here...This wouldn't go down here!...Right?  I'm sure that's exactly what those people in Aurora ,Colorado thought too!

So I bought some hot buttered popcorn and some goobers , a hot dog and a coke.. I'm sitting on the end seat, next row to the back...(.Just in case something does start...I can drop ,roll and hit the door fast)....And then, the previews begin...

I should note that I'm by myself...My wife is not into superhero action flicks like I am, so I was solo on this trip. So the previews are done and the movie begins...Like everybody else...I'm glued to the screen, into the story....and then...about twenty minutes into the film....the exit door, up by the screen swings open!!!!!!

Everybody gasped!  I said -"AWWWWW sh(rhymes with it!)" ,then...........then.......nothing!  There was no one there...Must have been the wind.....or some smart alec who thought this might be funny. The attendant immediately slammed the door shut!

People everywhere breathed a sigh of relief and looked at each other with that uneasy look one has ,when one has been embarrassed....We all smiled and chuckled amongst ourselves ,while secretly checking our underwear.

Then Anne Hathaway as the Catwoman appeared on the screen and we all quieted down and got back into the movie.....

After all...this is Philadelphia...That couldn't happen here!!!.....Nahhhh!!!
