I never drove off with one still inside the car. Knew people who did, and the theater was unforgiving in their stance.

My buddy and I walked through the gate in the rain and sat down by those speakers to watch the movie. The guy from the snack bar came over and sat with us for awhile before telling us we had to go. They weren't the highest quality speakers.
