Has anyone ever watched a fight at a movie theater? What is it like? Was it packed?

I called down to the local movie theater here and they said tickets were only 12 bucks so I picked up one, I never give my money to Floyd but I think it might be a good experience to watch a fight on a huge screen with other fight fans.

You'll love it, it's a high def signal so the first thing that'll get your attention is the shear size and clarity of the giant screen. Fans will talk, cheer, and boo just like at a stadium. For me it's the best way outside of being at actual venue, just be sure to get your buzz on prefight.

Enjoy!

i have and its pretty cool
provides a little atmosphere and i most def sneak in alcohol

Too expensive and no alcohol. Also many places dont allow you to bring in your own food or drink so youre stuck paying $6 for a bottle of water. Just split it with 3-4 friends and youve got it covered

I watched Ortiz/Mayweather in a theater... AMC in Hampton.
Too damn rowdy for my taste

You're right. I watched that fight at a mega sports bar and the tension between the black dudes and the Mexicans was thick. It got real rowdy that night.

I hope there isn't any drama but I will be ready, can't take any chances since last year a Mexican was killed here in AZ by a Mayweather fan just for not liking Floyd.

I've never done it, but I will do it for sure someday. Sounds cool.

I go every time a major PPV is shown. It's always packed and the atmosphere is similar to actual fights; people shouting, getting into arguments, throwing ship, laughing, OoOOoooOoooo'ing at the KOs.

I remember when Mosley rocked Mayweather the movie theater I was in damn near exploded with people freaking out.
