Wait a cotton pickin’ minute! Don’t all movie theaters have them???
boogertown
I work at a movie theater in FL. We do not sell pickles and no one has ever asked

SavageLizardz
Wait...does this not happen everywhere???
hwatL4bloopy
oh my god. i forgot about movie pickles. i just realized they dno't have them in cali. i don't buy concessions anymore
kaylalikesthings
Well they have them in Central California, but that’s probably because we’re like the South, but in California.
BaconLife907
Texan here, I was under the impression that all movie theaters had pickles...
pychael
I've never heard of it in NJ, but I wish theaters did this by me!
IWouldDoThings
Virginian here, we have them, nobody buys them. It's like that huge jar of pickles that just sits for all time.
midclass
That is definitely weird, I’m from Chicago. I’ve never seen pickles at the movie theater.
smashpro1
I'm going to smuggle one in next time I go.
SterlingValor
I hate people who sit near me with crunchy food at the movie theater. Last thing I want to also smell pickles for the next two hours.
OdManDeadMan
New Mexico also sells them in theatres.
dergage
I was going to say this too. The real question is with juice or drained?
MangoLass
There is a reason why we have the expression "It's like Texas in here" in Norway, meaning things are chaotic.

Diorgle
Not just a Texas thang
GoodGraces
I'm in Cali. We have pickles everywhere.. Always have.
AnaFin
Oregon here, just bought one last week for Ready Player One.
CamelSpotter
Yeah, Michigan here. We have pickles in theaters too.
KresblainTheMagician
lived in ME, WA, and PA, pickles in every theater I've been to plus at movie rental stores (rip).
greggor
I grew up in central PA and Philly. This is news to me.
KresblainTheMagician
I was in the Pittsburgh area. Might just be at certain theater chains though, but it's a common snack food for movies.
ImgurIsPrettyNeat
As someone from Texas, you can get a pickle at any event. Sports, movies, concerts, anything.
zagz1073
Wasn’t aware this was a thing.. May have to do with the fact that for the first 18 yrs of my life I had to drive to NM just to watch a movie
FartsSmellBad
it's a thing in Louisiana too
LowQualityTurtleByAPiano
FartsSmellBad
I don't understand, but I accept
BusinessShower
This is a great reason to move to Texas.
OhGardino
Ya'll ever had a deep fried pickle? So. Good.
MikeArclight
weird, but not a sin
mordain23
depends what you do with the pickle
IWasGoingToMakeEspresso
I’m from Texas, and I had no idea that there were movie theatres that didn’t have them.
Sauroctonus
Why are you eating pickles?
dajakers
I get them at the drive-in in Ohio
MisterBitey
they do in Kansas as well, at least they did, it has been a while since I went to a theater, also whole pickles used to be super popular 1/2
MisterBitey
back in the 80s and 90s anywhere people gathered for recreation. 2/2
JohnSnowflake
New Mexico has pickles. Downside? You’re in New Mexico.
Brochiavelli
ADisturbinglyAttractiveCactus
Also, I've never seen pickles at a movie theater but I rarely leave my little corner down (up?) here.
Equinox13
As someone from New Mexico, yeah, basically that. My advice is eat and flee.
ADisturbinglyAttractiveCactus
As someone from New Mexico who might actually be getting out, just flee, don't stop to eat, get out!
Equinox13
Take me with you. If we don't stop to eat we might get out without having the car broken into. (Those enchiladas, though...)
ADisturbinglyAttractiveCactus
Fuck that, I heard about a place in Socorro where I can get a decent burrito that isn't smothered in sauce and cheese.
Equinox13
If you want the best non-smothered burrito of your life, I know a place just outside of Las Cruces that almost makes the city worth going.
JohnSnowflake
New Mexico, where you can drive 8 hours and still be in the same state.
AndreaUmsha
There are pickles every where in Texas. You can get them in sealed bags at gas stations lol
mynameismoreoriginalthanyours
Anywhere in Atlanta as well
drakewarnock
You can get those most places. They're OK.
terrifyinglyhilarious
They have it in Virginia too, maybe just a weird pickle thing
magila
I find pickles in every grocery store in Texas.
RosencrantzNGuildensternNeverLived
Yes, very good grocery stores have pickles. You get a gold star for the day.
magila
Thanks for the gold star. I see that my sarcasm has become so sophisticated that people believe I am actually just stupid.
mynameismoreoriginalthanyours
Maybe a Southern thing?
AnythingMuchShorter
Seems to be, I know some restaurants in the south have a bin of whole pickles along with the condiments.
NahItsFineDontWorryAboutIt
Nope. Its a thing in Philly too.
shimmernshine
Before the bagged ones they used to have a big barrel next to the jerky and you bagged your own. They were HUGE sometimes.
comehomefransbrauder
Now that's something I had forgotten. And now? I want one of those damn pickles.
ThomsonI
We have those in South Carolina, too, though I've never seen them such that they couldn't be a health code violation.
TGWeaver
I've seen the same in California, I think it's just a gas station thing more than a Texas thing.
ThomsonI
We have them in South Carolina. They are terrible.
Fuckweasel
Managed a gas station in Idaho, we had them too.
Thatautismguy
A thing in Virginia and Mississippi too
Youpromisedbuttstuff
Iowa also.
jenrenea
Truth... I’ve lived in two northern Midwest states and have seen this in both.
WarningThisElectricianMayShockYou
Look I can barely handle people eating popcorn behind me. I might actually murder someone if I had to listen to them eating a pickle.
JamesSylar
Ok, but imagine someone eating a cucumber, not pickled or anything, just bite it off piece by piece.
RosencrantzNGuildensternNeverLived
You should, maybe, never leave your basement. Someone might breathe and offend you.
Grizy
Enjoy all those pickles friend.
WarningThisElectricianMayShockYou
Well okay then, I'll just listen to some random person on the internet. Sorry I offended you.
Ginkawa
"listen to them eating a pickle" .... what kinda pickles are you eating that make that much noise? ffs.
WarningThisElectricianMayShockYou
Have you ever actually eaten a pickle before?
LegendaryGrumpyCat
Crunchy ones? ; )
needanamedammit
Dill pickles usually make a crunch and slurp sound.
Ginkawa
I don't think I've ever had, seen, or heard a pickle that is loud enough to hear that without being right up in their face.
shovethis
Wtf kind of flaccid pickles are you eating boy
Ginkawa
maybe I'm just around people who can eat pickles normally?
mikemonk1
Wtf! Dafuq is a pickle? Is it a gherkin? If so that's weird
lostnortherner
Basically a big gherkin or a small pickled cucumber. Americans love 'em.
Ginkawa
https://www.quora.com/Whats-the-difference-between-a-gherkin-and-a-pickle
needanamedammit
those are the small ones. We want the big ones.
TheAdventuresofStealy
The Brits call them all gherkins, while in the US and here in Canada it usually refers to really tiny sweet pickles.
Ozymander
Fucking Alamo Drafthouse is what's up. Minnesota is finally getting one soon.
ICantRememberHowItEndsButYourMothersAWhore
Here’s a secret that they don’t want you to know: order the mozzarella sticks! Not in the menu but the have them! Delicious l!
KakunaMatata
Alamo draft house is the absolute shit
Ozymander
Haha, the reason you got a couple downvotes is because "the shit" is good and "absolute shit" is bad.
RuddyMcDuck
It’s the only way to see movies, pickles aside.
JPalka
I live in Dallas. Freaking love Alamo Drafthouse.
TheFlyingB
Where?
restos
I don't know what that is, but I do remember the Alamo! 'Fires guns into the air'
Yupurineutah
weastside
Overrated. Food is meh and drinks can take half the movie to arrive
RosencrantzNGuildensternNeverLived
Food is really distracting from the movie too. I like their events, but I won't watch 1st run films there. Labrynth was a party tho.
theshinobi23
Sorry you had a bad experience. I've been a few times when visiting friends in Texas, and it's always been great.
Laneskydoodlethe2nd
My wife wants to move to Texas now.
torpido
Do it. But don't go to Dallas or San Antonio
11wasaracehorse22was121111race1dayn22112
I want my wife to move to Texas.
Reitersblock
I think you're gonna be a daddy
eetsumkaus
Iiteral first thought. Once I went to a shop and bought cookies and pickles. Shop clerk asked "are you pregnant??". I was an 18 year old guy
MikeyEugene
join us. It's fun!
rickeyspanish
every movie theater in the South has pickles...I think.
BooksMakeMyClothesFallOff
Have you tried telling her that swans can be gay?
gillfrost
There are some other downsides unrelated to pickles.
BiologicallyHazardousMaterial
I want to husband your wife. I love pickles.
ItsNotASchoonerItsASailboat
I kinda do to, pickles are the best. But so is NY pizza. Nevermind I'm staying, but for sure pocketing pickles next time I go to the movies
RenegadeSci
Come to Six Flags in San Antonio and you'll see people walking around eating their iced pickles. :)
lookingOknaked
Buy your wife a jar of baby cornichons. You will thank me for all the briny BJs.
nateglen350
Bring her in down
SirSPAM
Pickles are gherkins right? - why the hell would you want one of those and the cinema!?!?
EggsMayhem
Don't do it
unpunnyfuns
She ain't about your pickle in the back rows? Harsh.
Johnny5dicks
Maybe she just wants a little more pickle tickle.
drunkenpandaco
That would be appropriate considering things in Texas tend to be big.
YOUAreTheMagicMan
DON'T DO IT. We use pickles to draw you in, then next you know you're buying your first shotgun and screaming like an eagle every morning.

https://www.buzzfeed.com/annamenta/but-why-pickles-though?utm_term=.ffGYbelWB#.hm9g7dRXv those are expensive pickles.
WitcherOfTheFoxSchool
Like an actual eagle, or like a red tailed hawk?
YOUAreTheMagicMan
Yes.
giantflapjacksandsuch
Texas is horrible. Its a giant strip mall. Dallas is lame and the riverwalk in SA smells like an Indian restaurant screwing a tire fire.
malbec
Oh god that gave me a good honest laugh. Thanks for that
D33zus
Bless your heart.
YesImAGuyThatCooks
Well you're just a special kinda stupid ain't ya boy
rickeyspanish
shh...he is just trying to keep the stupid people from moving here...
bthighlander
Yeah, TEXAS SUCKS!!! You would NOT like it here. Don't even bother coming for vacation. Terrible place!!
lyricallove
Aw, I live in the DFW area and Dallas is alright. There are some cool places around.
Vacationdad
Hey there fellow dfw friend. Where are you at I'm in Fort Worth
eetsumkaus
Think what surprised me the most about San Antonio was all the giant churches with billboards that looked like mini shopping malls
WhereIsWillByers
You realize TX has more than just Dallas and SA right?
Giantsdefensecantwinbythemselves
Two places in the US I’d live . Texas and Hawaii. Cuz both places ain’t really like the rest of the of the US. For Example Oklahoma.
Grandestboom
Honestly lots of states in the US are different from each other, check one out from each region
itchyanditchy
Lived there, can confirm. Awesome and strangely accurate description.
Fairdinkums
I've got a pickle for her but I ain't in Texas
communicationbreakdown
She wants a pickle, not a cornichon
Laneskydoodlethe2nd
My gurkin is plenty for her thank you very much.
Billy2sweet
You can't be in two places at once.
TurangaLeelaIsMyMom
We welcome you both to Texas, the greatest place on the planet!
bthighlander
(Dude, SHHHH!) TEXAS SUCKS!!! You would NOT like it here. Don't even bother coming for vacation. Terrible place!!
TurangaLeelaIsMyMom
CottonTheClown
Send her and stay where you're at
iCANdoTHEwave
u talking shit bout pickles?
Laneskydoodlethe2nd
But Texas has lots of pre pews. I like firing guns and the like. And hot rods... lots of cool cars. I could live there... probably.
boobiesarelifetho
Come to Houston, but being a boat and a very tall truck. Cuz it floods here. All the damn time.
phatdaddi
Do you like 80 degree weather in December?
OGsatan
Is that before or after you drown in a hurricane
gigem77
We do have lots of pows.... And yes, our "Dailey drivers" are good....
gigem77
We would love to have you..... Period
CottonTheClown
Preppers? I mean I could live there too probably.
gigem77
We have those as well
Laneskydoodlethe2nd
Pew pews *
CottonTheClown
Ah
TheBigLetdown
Is it really that weird?
WhereIsWillByers
No.
cKerensky
Very
PhilFromAccounting
It is really that weird.
sikarisakari
yes. although I would probably like some pickles at movies
baconmacka
Yup
PolarHailStorm
Yeah.
TheAdventuresofStealy
It's so weird that I'm honestly still not sure this isn't a joke.
StealthyNinja7
*crunch* Yeh *crunch* and *crunch* probably *crunch* annoying *crunch*
JHawke
Texas pickles must be different than the pickles we have here.. they make significantly less noise than popcorn here.
StealthyNinja7
I'm not from Texas, I've never been to the USA
StealthyNinja7
Are the soft or something? Pickles I know are a bit crunchy.
JHawke
A bit yes, but I was comparing it to popcorn which is significantly crunchy. =p
zorbivore
Yes
JeffSmurthers
Yes
TheBigLetdown
Why? Haha
ebap
Is it just a pickle?? Is it deep fried at least?
TheBigLetdown
No, just a pickle lol
MrMemethief
Because... pickles... as a theater snack... the fuck...?
CamelSpotter
It's been a thing since the early drive-in days. Look up some of those old movie concession ads.
TheBigLetdown
What's so weird about it? You get pretzels, hot dogs, nachos, pizza etc as a snack. Why not a pickle?
wildatheart499
It's just not common I mean you don't hear of them selling other raw fruits or vegetables at a cinema
