    I've heard of some theatres where after the credits have run and the lights are back up, the leaf blowers come out.

      Sounds like a good way to get your screen, seats and walls covered with crap.

        Maybe they should consider fixing the roof. I don't know that many theaters that have a leaf problem.

          Hi, folks... we're locking up now and the boss says we have to charge extra for overnighters.

            Play some Lawrence Welk over the PA: https://youtu.be/Ol9_0schMHs

            That’ll send ‘em screaming for the doors!

              That would make me stay and enjoy the music.

              To get me to leave instantly, play modern Top 40.

              Not kidding.

                The local Walgreens is playing LOUD classical music outside the store to discourage loitering. Seems to be working. I've heard the William Tell Overture several times.

                  Yeah, but you'd also get the reference and take the hint...and smile as you walked out the door and said, "Good Night!" at the appropriate moment at the end of the song.

                    I agree, staying after the projector has shut off is rude, even more than getting up and leaving before the credits have finished.
