The rampers turned on the APU and ran it all night so they could watch movies in 1st class.

Nothing like burning 500 gallons of Jet-A to watch "Iron Man III" in comfort.
Almost as epic as every morning FA going ballistic about turning on the APU to make coffee slightly earlier. Yeah a $500/hr coffee maker that makes hotel room quality coffee with hose water for 6 or 7 people max. You could buy them the highest maintenence drinks made at Starbucks and still save hundreds per flight. Got big picture?
