A man lay sprawled across three entire seats in the posh
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, 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 then asked, "All
right buddy, what's your name?"
"Sam," the man moaned.
"Where ya from, Sam?"
With pain in his voice Sam replied, "The balcony."

I did groan, but not at any joke quality. I groaned over the insensitivity of the theater employees. Whatever happened to asking someone like that, "Are you all right?"
Okay, I know I'm taking this much too seriously, that it wouldn't work that way as a joke. But all I could do was sympathize with the poor guy, even before the punchline.
