My mom took me to my very first movie in a theater at the tower theater. We saw the 90’s “Casper the friendly ghost.”

Immediately prepandemic they had a movie pass thing at Alamo, up to 1 movie per day for 20/month.
I think I watched probably 15 movies there in that month and I loved it so much.
Most days I just bought a root beer, but occasionally I’d get a boozey milk shake.
Only got to go a couple times after it got really opened back up after the pandemic then I moved away.
Anyways, we have a baby now so we don’t go to the movies at all 🫠

Place is super good.
One of the cooks there is on this subreddit.

He did get shot (this is known in the public record), and I truly wish I could tell the story but hipaa laws are a bitch.

Went there a LOT on college night back when I was at MSU.
I think they had a coupon in the campus coupon book also.
I remember being annoyed when the fence went up that prevented walking through the grass straight to the box office if you were coming from the garage by herrs tower.

Mercy has the Marian center. That’s inpatient psychiatric care.
You probably can’t check in directly, as it’s usually pretty much full, but if you are having suicidal thoughts or thoughts of harming anyone else check in to the ER. It’s not ideal but they’ll try and get you the help you need.

Has anyone at mama jeans ever been inside a Trader Joe’s? They wouldn’t hardly be competitors.
Whole Foods, for sure, but Trader Joe’s serves a different niche.

Better business bureau is a private business which any other business can pay money to get a good ranking or remove negative reviews and shouldn’t really ever be a part of your decision making process.

I had my first date at the palace theater. I was too broke to take my girlfriend out so she paid. We saw Mr. Woodcock (with Sean William Scott and billy bob thornton). Married her about 9 years later.
I remember seeing Jurassic park 3 there as a kid, and several other shows where my mom would drop me off to meet friends or let someone else’s parents drop us off. We were always pretty broke so she was able to afford a movie at the palace.
