Most Outrageous Snacks Snuck Into A Movie Theater

Reddit user AMosquitoBitMe asked: 'What Is the most outrageous snack that you snuck into the theater?'

Make us preferred on Google

Most of us can't deny that going to the movie theater is a fun experience, but we also can't deny that the concession prices have become kind of outrageous.

As a result, it's become increasingly common for people to sneak their own food or drinks in, and some of their attempts have been downright impressive.


Redditor AMosquitoBitMe asked:

"What is the most outrageous snack that you snuck into the theater?"

A Well-Deserved Pizza

"Someone snuck a whole pizza past me once when I was taking tickets. I asked if they snuck it through the emergency exit. Nope, they walked right by me and I didn’t notice."

"Props. They deserved that pizza for pulling it off."

Awkward Whipped Cream

"Two of my friends snuck in Taco Bell and a full can of whipped cream into 'Spider-Man: Far from Home,' only they failed to factor in how loud cans of whipped cream are."

"Spider-man: 'Everywhere I go, I see his face.' [Loud whipped cream sounds.]"

"Spider-man: 'I just really miss him.' [Slightly muffled whipped cream sounds.]"

A Toast to the Movie

"I took a liter bottle of wine into the cinema once. I was going out afterwards, so I had to combine the cinema with my pre-drinking."

"It had a plastic stopper thing on it. Unfortunately, the moment I decided to open it, the movie went suddenly quiet, so there was just this loud 'pop!' sound."

"I think a few people knew exactly what it was. I heard a few laughs anyway."

Enough Food for a Long Movie

"Not me, but a lady sitting behind me brought in an entire rotisserie chicken in her purse to watch 'Infinity War' (admittedly a long movie)."

"I heard these god-awful smacking noises behind me about 20 minutes in, and I looked back to see her shoving handfuls of chicken in her mouth!"

A Humble Meal

"Two cheeseburgers, two medium fries, and a 20-piece nugget."

- Balahkeh

"But what sauce?"

- TheBlueNinja0

"BBQ, ranch, and buffalo!"

- Balahkeh

Taste the Rainbow

"Like a jumbo-jumbo factory-sized bag of Skittles for ten people to split that I couldn’t get open, so I gave it one mega effort rip, and a billion tiny Skittles went exploding all over the theatre at the quietest movie intro."

- Ciinnaa21

Don't Forget the Drinks

"Two Arby’s gyro combo meals, complete with drinks."

"One night several years ago, I saw two women had snuck in full to-go boxes of wings, lol (laughing out loud)."

Not So Sneaky

"I stuffed an 18-inch deli sandwich down the sleeve of my winter coat once. It was in the noisiest plastic packaging known to man."

"My brother was two seats over dying laughing as I ever so slowly tried to open it quietly. The sound in the quiet theater was super obvious."

That's Hardcore

What Childhood Memories Are Made Of

"Back in the early 90s, Burger King had a promotion: two burgers, two fries, two bucks. The BK was in the food court of the mall right across from the theater. My friend and I (maybe 12 at the time) smuggled them in our winter coats and feasted."

The Simpler Things in Life

"I packed Frankenberry and stuffed two 16-ounce bottles of milk in my girlfriend's purse. I had two bowls of cereal and it was amazing."

Dinner and a Movie

"Two instances I'm weirdly proud of (I was known among my friends as the one who could probably get anything into a movie theater, lol [laughing out loud]):"

"Taco Bell: I lined the bottom of my purse with napkins and then filled it about halfway up with the ten-count box of soft tacos from Taco Bell, then canned sodas (put in there RIGHT before going inside to not chill the tacos/heat the drinks; this is science), all topped with nachos and cinnamon twists (I brought ziplock bags and filled them when we got the food from the drive-thru)."

"Culver's: I put four pint-sized ice creams at the bottom of my purse, then a thick layer of napkins, then a giant order of fries and tenders, and then the napkins and spoons."

The Definition of a "Good Memory"

"20+ years ago, a friend and I were sitting around the house. We decided that we really wanted to go see 'Bubba Ho-Tep' which was showing at the local indie theater that our roommate worked at."

"The only trouble was that we were in Minneapolis and there was an unseasonable early blizzard happening outside. Like whiteout conditions, and we were on foot. But we were determined and hungry so we decided we'd swing by Popeye's on the way to the theater and get some."

"Walking through the blizzard was exhausting, but the goal of fried chicken and a Bruce Campbell movie was worth the effort."

"We managed to get our chicken (a large family size portion, because why not), and then secured it under our coats for the mile-and-a-half trudge through the snow. So we're freezing cold on the outside being pelted with sheets of ice and snow, and the chicken is burning us but kept from going cold so it was a system that worked."

"We got to the theater and our roommate saw the chicken and demanded to join us, being that there was only one other person in the theater. We headed to the balcony and set up our feast and set to it."

"About 20 minutes into the movie, the one other person watching left their seat downstairs and came up to the balcony."

"'Hey, I can smell the fried chicken from down there. Uhh.. do you guys have any extra?'"

"H**l yes, we did. We gladly invited this stranger to join our chicken party and all had a terrific time watching a movie that was a little disappointing."

- tenehemia

Going to see a movie is a fun experience, but it's obviously much less fun if you're hungry.

From ice cream to tacos and sandwiches to whole chickens, these Redditors seem to have the system all figured out!
