Weirdness at the movie theatre

I'll try not to make this story too long b/c I don't want to loose any readers (and fyi, spell check is not working so sry for errors)! :)

Jeff and I went to see "Vantage Point" at the new Fayetteville movie theatre tonight. (good movie btw, not one i'd buy...but worth seeing for sure) Anywho - when the movie was over, we just sat in our seats waiting for the crowd to thin out seeing as it was a packed theatre. So we're just sittin back, watchin the credits, processing everything we just saw, when all of a sudden the guy in front of us stands up, turns around & starts talking to us. He looked to be in high school....maaaaaaaybe first year of college. So he starts talking about the width of the aisles. He says to Jeff (very calmly, which was one of the things that made it so weird) "Dude these aisles are like 10 feet wide and you kept kicking my chair the whole time. I mean, what's the deal?? Seriously, you must have kicked me like 100 times man"... OK, at this point Jeff and I are just like totally speachless & confused. Jeff didn't hardly move the ENTIRE movie - and yes, the aisles ARE extremely wide, so even if Jeff had put his leg up or something - he would not have hit the guys chair?! So Jeff, being the amazingly nice guy that he is, responds very calmly "I did? Hmmm...that's...(pause)....I didn't even realize. Sorry about that." At this point - the guy's girlfriend is trying desparately to pull him away, but he won't let up & just keeps going on about it! He's like "Dude, I'm not kidding. You kicked me like 100 times, seriously!" His voice starts to get a little more stern & Jeff and I are still sitting there confused. Finally, the girlfriend pulls the guy away & they leave. We are left in the theatre going - what just happened here?? It was the stranges thing - totally out of nowhere! The only conclusion I can come up with was that the guy was a little drunk or on some kind of "substance" & must have been looking for a fight. He was so confrontational, yet there's no way Jeff could have really kicked his chair that many times? As we were walking to the car, I told Jeff he is soooooo much nicer than me. I would have punched that guys face in!!!!! (Ya right, just kidding!)
