“Raiders of the Lost Ark” runs first run. The Mark I would be twinned in the late eighties as MARK II.Local residents missed that large screen when it was split into.

Yeah you are right unless you shorted them four dollars and later on the Box office girl gave someone four dollars too Little in change back,then you are back at square one.DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE?I am just glad i don’t think i ever had that problem.GCC insisted managers always stay near the box office during busy periods.Often I would get a 100 dollar bill to check if it was good i guess i was good,and VERY LUCKY.Tisloews quit giving me these dang Math problems.

dhroc,boy you hit it on the nail.there is nothing special about going to the movies.Look at the crowds today,most of them a bunch of clowns.It was starting to fade out a bit when I was in the business,but I can remember on certain adult type films,and I Do not mean X-rated,folks would come dressed as if going to church,now they dress the same way at the 20 Plex as they do sadly, at church.Good comment,dhroc.
