Upselling Cuba

I worked at a movie theater in Utah several years ago. On an extremely slow afternoon I'm the only person working the concessions. All of a sudden I look up and there are two men walking towards me. It was Cuba freaking Gooding freaking jr. His friend walks off to the bathroom and he approaches me and asks for a small popcorn. I told him that the small was ridiculously small and he might want a large. He agrees and proceeds to pay and go into his movie. I call over the radio to tell everybody that he is here. Nobody believed me until... the movie he went to (Idlewild) didn't work. We had to issue Cuba Gooding Jr a raincheck ticket. He politely declined, saying he wouldn't be in town too long. Overall a very polite man and a fun story to share.
