Balconey

A man was sprawled across three entire seats in a theater. When the
usher came by and noticed this, he whispered to the man, "Sorry sir,
but you're only allowed one seat."

The man groaned but didn't budge. The usher became impatient.

"Sir," the usher said, "if you don't get up from there, I'm going to
have to call the manager."

Again, the man just groaned, which infuriated the usher who turned and
marched briskly back up the aisle in search of his manager. In a few
moments, both the usher and the manager returned and stood over the
man. Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move him, but with
no success. Finally, they summoned the police. The cop surveyed the
situation briefly.

"All right, buddy. What's your name?"

"Sam," the man moaned.

"Where ya from, Sam?" the cop asked.

"The balcony."
