The place was absolutely packed -- mostly adults, but a few junior high aged kids with their parents, some college students, and the most irritating group of 16 year old boys ever.
Basically, it was like watching the history of China with Beavis and Butthead. The rest of the audience was absolutely rapt and completely silent -- then you would hear "heh. heh. heh. heh."

My daughter took me to see Napolean Dynmaite for my birthday. So in the theatre is the 3 16 year old boys group and the 3 13 year old girls pretending to be 15 group. It was half empty so they switched seats a few times steadily moving closer, then finally they're all together. The noise level was bad before, but after they got together it went through the roof.
After a bit, I turned and said "Would you watch the movie or go outside to talk" like Constanza in Seinfeld. I have never done that before in my life.
They shut up, and didn't pour pop on me. After the movie I thought they'd hang around to fuck with me, but the boys ran off once the credits started (note- sit through the credits for ND). My daughter actually heard the girls saying how embarressed they were.
I'm sure it was a crap shoot, and odds are good that I could have caught a head full of pop, but it worked that time.
