I believe that the best place to see @u(Rocky Horror Picture Show) is near
a college campus, best time being around Halloween. I never understood the
people who would get up in front and act out the scenes in sync with the movie,
but I remember buying a BIC butane lighter just for this movie.

From my understanding, the best place to see RHPS is in a big city environment,
where a large group of regulars can be assembled.  I think in campus situations
people tend to go in groups once in a long while to experience it, rather than
making it a weekly ritual.  Besides, often, the weekend campus activities are
too extensive to keep people from making it a regular habit.  The best
audiences I've seen have been in (sub)urban environments (special mention to
Hollywood, Fla.) while on-campus showings have been among the worst.
