Does Fandango lobby for long movie lines?

[Jynx980]

The local theatre that I go to consistantly has only 1 person selling tickets. There are more 'lanes' for selling but they are never open. I have seen 2 at the most. Weekends, Christmas, Fourth of July weekend, always one line. They have plenty of people working there, and I am sure people complain all the time. What if Fandango gave a large "investment" to this theatre/chain to make the lines longer and to make 'printing tickets at home' more appealing? The more I think about it, the more is makes sense. Have any of you had similar experiences?

my problem w/ fandango is that I can't get my "student" rate through the website, have to stand in line to get the 2 bucks off
