By the time I drove past, the property was engulfed in flames. There were at least 30 firefighters there, using hoses and every available method to extinguish it. I pulled over safely and parked. I said, “Wait here I’ll be right back” to the passenger.

I ran toward the building and shouted over and over. I then ran back to my car and got inside.

My passenger asked, “What were you doing?”

“I always wanted to shout ‘THEATER!’ In a crowded fire.”
