beginning of the movie, like super dark beause theaters are
all all the lights right and just have your And

super tall. And Dave Santia is a speed painter. So
Dave will go out to charity events and start painting
things upside down and you're like, what is this to
like six minutes of music, and then he spins the
thing around and you're like, oh my god, I can't
believe it. It's Jared. God, it's Jared right right right, That's
that's Dave Santia. So Dave's out there. So so he

do what Jay Towers, it's your your seat X this
or whatever. So I see Dave coming up. You know
the stadium seating there, right, see Dave coming up. So
you know my phone I didn't have off, but I

like dim like this. But I'm in the middle and
(02:50):
I see him coming up, and so I'm holding my
phone up dim like just like I'm here because I
don't want to yell for him.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Right, So Dave, the movie was already head started, right, So.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Dave like comes up and he starts making his way
down the aisle and then all of a sudden, you
hear like, oh, and it's like Dave just sat on
a person. Oh my gosh, Like he couldn't see he's
nine foot nine, and like he like like the seat
he chose, and I think he just like thought, you know,
I'm not gonna find Jay, I'll just sit in this
(03:22):
emptyc It's just Dave sat on someone. So then he
gets up and I see him like motioning like I'm
a sorry or something like that. So Dave starts moving
down and then he like gives up and he's like
and I think he's gonna start walking out, and then
he sits down again and you hear like ow, and
I'm like, finally I got up, like in the theater
with the movie, I'm.

Now, see if that was me, if that had happened
to me, I would have to leave the theater and
never show my face ever again.
