The Athena Grand movie theater in Athens, Ohio has a pay phone in the lobby. That's right- a real and actual working pay phone where you can drop in coins and call someone.
There's even a sign that tells people that it works.
One of my fun quirks is that I always photograph pay phones and phone booths whenever I see them. There are a surprising number of them out in the world but not nearly as many as we probably need. After all, not everyone in this world has a cell phone and there are still places that don't have great cell service.
Sadly, my cell phone has robbed me of the ability to memorize phone numbers. I can recite my childhood phone number and the office number of my first job but have almost no recollection of anything acquired since my iPhone stores all that information for me.
So I couldn't call anyone if I wanted!
