LOOK WHAT WE FOUND!

Once upon a time, there was a busy theatre in a busy mall downtown, called the Cineplex Odeon Galleria Cinema. And at that theatre, they put something called "butter" on their popcorn, as opposed to the "golden topping" they put on the popcorn at Famous Players (ptooey).

And the people who worked at that busy theatre had to 'upsell' to get people to put extra butter on their popcorn. 

"Would you like extra butter on that? It's butter in the middle and on top, for only an extra 25 cents!"

(We won't discuss the time that we were selling Goobers and Raisinettes and we had to offer those every time. "Would you like some Goobers with that, sir?" People thought I was offering to hork in their popcorn...)

And if you were successful in convincing someone to buy extra butter, you put that 25 cents (for small, 50 for medium, 75 for large) under your till, to keep track of how much extra butter you were selling.

And there was a young lady who worked there for many summers. And she enjoyed the job, and eating her body weight in popcorn, and seeing free movies...but she had a dream.

And that dream was to sell the most extra butter and to one day be the Butter Queen.

(A title she came up with, which strangely did not catch on with the regular winners of the title.)

And one day that dream came true.

And to commemorate it, her wacky mother bought her a present:

And 20 years later, the young lady's husband found the shirt in a box full of awesome, and there was much rejoicing.

The end  .....?


Yeah, no, that is actually the end.
