Howard the duck,

Get your ducks in row. 4 of them. But they must be live ducks in movie theatre seats.
( ducks ahoy )
This was one of those, "I know a guy who knows a guy" type situations. There is a small theatre downtown that is used for both independent movies and business gatherings etc, and I tried to get a hold of the owners, but had no luck. Then I had lunch with an old friend (the fellow who prints my porny stickers for me) and I asked him if he knew anyone who owned a movie theatre.
Luck would have it that he knew the guy in charge of one of the malls, which has an Imax theatre that was shut down. He made the phone call, and voila! I had a connection.
I then went to a different (working) theatre and asked them if I could have some drink cups and popcorn bags. I prefaced it like this:
Me: Hi! I'm doing this scavenger hunt (bla bla bla) and I need to get four live ducks into a movie theatre.
Her: 0_o
Me: But I already have that covered. I just need some drink cups and popcorn bags.
Her: I CAN TOTALLY DO THAT FOR YOU!
:D
