Overpriced movie theater snacks have people coming up with new and creative ways to bring their own, though this has left some wondering if it's illegal.
However, if you get caught, your behavior could potentially lead to legal action if you decide to take things too far instead of dropping them and apologizing.
Refusing to back down, becoming confrontational, and insisting on keeping your candy could be considered disorderly conduct, prompting security to step in.
While it's uncommon for police to get involved, you could find yourself in a situation where staff involve law enforcement. Your smuggled treats aren't worth the drama.
Instead, you should simply own up to it if you're caught. Worst-case scenario, you'll be shown the door — or get away with a small warning and have your snack thrown in the trash.
