Man brings mouse traps to Texas movie theater after complaints—
A Texas man resorted to bringing his own mousetrap on movie night as his local theater struggles to contain an ongoing rodent infestation.
Cinemark Theater in Waco has had multiple customers report mice in the theater, prompting local health authorities to launch an investigation.
On Thursday, Cole Pauley told KWTX he brought a mousetrap into the theater and surrounded himself with it to avoid worrying about mice getting too close.
“I was like, man I’ll just take mouse traps and build a wall of protection around me just so we don’t have to deal with it. They were like, ‘you won’t do that, you’re ridiculous, no one would do that’, I said, ‘watch me’,” he said.
By the end of the movie, one of Pauley’s traps successfully caught a mouse. Pauley said a likely cause was the city’s construction projects.
