I am 50 years old. I have been getting the "senior discount" now for about 8 years. My husband and I will go to the movie theater and he will say "one adult and one senior" with me standing right there and the kid working will not even look to see who the senior is. He doesnt do that anymore because it just isnt right. But....the person selling the tickets SHOULD AT least look to see if there is a senior there. :)
