Did anyone ever order anything (besides wrestling) on Pay Per View (ie, sports, movies, specials)?

We used to order movies pretty regularly. Until we got a descrambler chip.

In the fifteen years since I moved out of my parents house and had my own cable, I've ordered exactly two non-porn PPV movies - Tucker & Dale vs. Evil and Scooby-Doo! and the Curse of the 13th Ghost.

Lets see.... Carnosaur (I was a kid who loved dinosaurs and my mom was like SURE WHY NOT! lolol), Terminator 2, Serial Mom (Again my mom let me watch anything), Suburban Commando, and I think another early 90s blockbuster who I can't recall at the moment.

I’m sure there’s something but nothing really sticks out. Probably a movie here or there.

Ordered 1 non wrestling sports PPV in my life. A bunch of us gathered in a basement filled with pizza to watch Tyson vs Holyfield.
We were all super pissed. But in retrospect, saw a pretty famous piece of history as it was unfolding.

I ordered I Know What You Did Last Summer on PPV but never received it thanks to our shitty cable company, TCI.

I know I bought a few movies on pay-per-view when my family got DirecTV and got access to PPV for the first time, but the only one I can remember off the top of my head was The Cable Guy.

"The Last KISS" PPV of one of the shows from the KISS Farewell Tour where for the first few songs Ace's vocals were way too high in the mix during backing vocals.

SlapFight Championship's Titans Clash PPV in August.
Delivered exactly what the name promised. 10 smackaroos and worth every penny.

I ordered a porno called Broadcast Bombshells about a news company where everyone who worked there looked like 90's Playboy Playmates and were always horny.
I got in trouble.

For a very short period (think 2-3 seasons) Sky Sports here in the UK used to have a few Premier League football games on a PPV only basis for £5 so any time my team Everton were on or my late dad’s team Liverpool were on, we’d order it

I ordered Batman and Robin on PPV Cable when it came out, and my mom still has a go at me about it to this day.
