Surprised there isnt a thread on this already, or at least in the search.

Sports viewing and consistent novelty popcorn buckets is their plan to save Theaters.

Do we have to be quiet & no phones during the Sport viewings?

How we feel about this?

Edit:

Heres actual info, apparently the Olympics showing seems to be exclusive to AMC theaters:

There is a 100% chance that violent fight and pissing will happen for the sport event viewings right? Especially something like the Olympics and Super Bowl.

Who gonna get knocked out and pissed on first? Place your bets like a sporting app!

They've done UFC and some boxing for years

Just go to the casino

Smart move to make extra money

Super Bowl would be lit in imax

if i cant smoke my shisha im not there

Nah imagine how wack the Super Bowl parties gotta be at the theatres if no phones gotta stay quiet?

I don’t think people would be expected to be quiet while watching the Super Bowl on a giant screen lol

It’s not like you gotta lock in and listen to dialogue, I’m sure it would be a pretty casual and more talkative environment compared to actually watching a movie

I’d support this though for sure, anything that can keep theaters alive and thriving

Yeah if they made it casual I can see it being decent, it still won’t beat the traditional come over to mine for the superbowl tho ya know

O yea I most definitely agree. It would also be a much more expensive experience

You could buy a 6 pack of beer and nachos at the store and it would be wayyy cheaper than buying 2 beers and snacks at the theater lol

cool but prolly wont work out too well

the way I would pre-order tickets to the super bowl in IMAX if I had the option 🙌

food situation could be kinda sus tho, can I get a pizza delivered into the theater

idts tbh.

likely wont be alcohol at most of these places and so people would be relatively tame.

probably the same occurrence of fights randomly happening at movie theaters anyway

Not sure if ever go to a theater for a sporting event but if it brings them extra revenue

Ever watched sports at a bar?

Don’t let you know who in there

Kanye invented

when are they going to start playing p*** tho. we need IMAX p***.

UFC fights at a theatre were lowkey sick, i watched ufc 300 at one
