A man was sprawled across three entire seats
in a theatre. When the usher came by and noticed this, he
whispered to the man, "Sorry sir, but you're only allowed
one seat." The man groaned but didn't budge. The usher
became impatient.
"Sir," the usher said, "If you don't get up from there, I'm
going to have to call the manager."
Again, the man just groaned, which infuriated the usher who
turned and marched briskly back up the aisle in search of
his manager. In a few moments, both the usher and the
manager returned and stood over the man. Together the two of
them tried repeatedly to move him, but with no success.
Finally, they summoned the police. The cop surveyed the
situation briefly.
"All right, mate. What's your name?"
"Sam," the man moaned.
"Where you from, Sam?" the cop asked.
"The balcony."
