The Meridian Quad 6 movie theater in San Jose, CA had $2 tuesdays. Lots
of signs warning patrons not to hop theaters. So, as dumb, broke kids we
found doing so to be a moral imperative. So much so, that "hopping the
quad" became a term.

I remember seeing "Hollywood Hot Tubs", "Night of the Comet",  and an
installment of Friday the 13th on a Tuesday.

Not a hallmark of cinematic excellence, the Quad. But, it was a good
time, nonetheless.
