Patrons at Papua New Guinea's only cinema told to leave grenades at door!!!

The Pacific nation of Papua New Guinea has opened its only cinema complex but patrons have been warned not to spit betel-nut on the floor and to leave grenades at the door.

The three-theatre complex, the Paradise Cinema, is the first cinema to open in the Commonwealth country's crime-ridden capital, Port Moresby, in more than 20 years.

But cinemagoers will have to pass a metal detector, open their bags for security checks and comply with a list of fourteen rules pasted outside the entrance.

 In addition to asking people to turn their mobile phones off, the sign states: "Weapons of any kind (including guns, knives, any sharp objects, grenades, etc) are not allowed inside the cinema premises." Full story...
