Catching fish while watching a movie; less common these days [1] but not at all uncommon when my parents generation went to the movies [2].

Seeing a local stage play open in a theatre [3] before it tours globally is pretty special, as is seeing the premeire of a film adaption in the same theatre [4] 20 years later.

I'm still fond of outdoor "walkies" (like an open air drive in but with no cars, just sling back canvas seating) fully open in a desert - it's a total bonus when you get both a great film and a kick ass meteor shower on the same night.
