Free Popcorn at Marcus Theatres in Minnesota This Week

Going to the movies can be expensive, especially for families. Between the tickets, popcorn, and drinks, the bill adds up quickly. One movie theater chain is hoping to make things a little easier with something everyone loves: free popcorn.

Free Popcorn Coming to Minnesota Theaters

Modern theaters may offer everything from burgers to pizza, but popcorn remains the king of concessions. It’s the one snack nearly every moviegoer craves, and that’s why Free Popcorn Week is such a big deal.

A Slow Movie Season Gets a Boost

This time of year is usually quiet at the box office. The big summer blockbusters have wrapped up, and the holiday movie season hasn’t started yet. But a little extra incentive might be all it takes to bring people back into the theater. Free popcorn could be the perfect excuse to catch a movie you missed or even rewatch one you loved.

Minnesota's 5 Shortest State Highways - Don't Blink, Or You'll Miss Them!

Don't blink, or you'll miss them! These state highways are pretty shockingly short!

For the purpose of this list, I decided to exclude the sizable list of short state highways that serve state institutions like correctional facilities and hospitals. These are just connections to those facilities, so they have a very specific purpose besides just being a stretch of road.

Let's take a look at where these roads are and just how short they really are.
