Could be any number of things but I assume it’s something serious like either a large number of fights between kids either in the building or the parking lot or just too many rowdy kids coming in and loudly talking and yelling during movies and the like that staff can’t handle.

A small group of us just went last night to see the new Ant Man movie. We’ve had problems before with adults acting a fool during the movie (i.e. beaming candy at us for no reason). Yesterday we did have a handful of kids/teens there talking throughout the movie & a baby crying for a few mins but nothing ridiculous. Upon entering and leaving the building though, there were about 5+ security guards standing around. We’ve never seen them before and they seemed pretty bored tbh. I hadn’t heard of any shenanigans lately that would prompt that to become a standard, but it maybe a new thing. Based on our experiences, it’s not always the kids that are the problem. But I’m also not going to complain that no kids will be allowed after a certain time.

Ted passed away more than a few years ago. He left control of a large portion of his operations to a charming dragon of a woman named Liz Kincaid, who promptly ran quality into the ground at chez max AND both tarrants locations. They are all seriously mediocre now.

Ive been tossing around this idea that yall were raised by post columbine basket cases who, ironically, drove their kids to find their third spaces in tribalistic hate corners of the internet based on inherited identity rather than proximity once iphones became widely accessible. Social bonds are precious and worth defending, but shit goes south fast without a level head around. Social capital is both everything and baseless without a sense of respect and true role models. Troll-y gamers come to mind. Anyway good luck youngn, we're all in this together, its all hands on deck to make it better

I'm glad that your personal enjoyment and profits are more important to you than youth having the opportunity to access enriching hobbies and activities during their weekend time.

“Annoying” aka completely ruins the experience and drives all of their profitable customers away.

Shithead kids getting dumped there by parents causing the actual spenders to not go.
They make maybe $1 per ticket for a kid in profit if all the do is buy a ticket. They make multiples more per adult that has a drink before the movie, ticket, popcorn/snacks etc, and they’re less likely to go if it’s a garbage experience because some shithead kids are being assholes screeching and on their phone.

Supper for breakfast, Proper Pie for lunch, Cobra Burger for dinner. It'd be indigestion hell but worth it if it's the last time, lol.

Bowtie has the smallest screens I've ever seen at a theater, highly recommend regal or amc over them

“Was” - it’s all cream and wood now. They restored it back to the original finishes. Fun fact, the bright colors were from left over public school paints in the 80s

Is chicken traffic not unique to the Charlottesville Raising Cane's or are you lost?

I get the feeling you're not actually a part of this community. Go back to SLC.

I haven't been to Bowtie on AA Blvd in almost ten years but last time I went, I remember thinking that the screens felt really small and not worth the ticket price... have they upgraded since then?
