In Southern culture, "free space" is a neccessity. If there are two cars parked on a row, a Southerner will instinctively park in the space that is the geometric center between the two cars (giving maximum room on each side). That's why Southerners are appalled at the idea of going to the Jersey shore, where people are packed on top of each other. If you go to a Florida panhandle beach, you'll see Southerners pick spots that are as far away from each other as possible.
Yankees, on the other hand, tend to cluster together for some reason. They walk in packs, drive in packs, and sit together in packs.
Therefore, my observation on your movie seat situation is that the guy was a Yankee.
