  • @ftjax Your old..

  • I went often in the 1950's -1970's...I took them for granted back then till they went away...I'd love to revist some now !

  • @ftjax Thanks!

  • @innocuousaccount "Sleepwalk" by Santo & Johnny....

  • Anyone know what the song is called at the end of the video?

  • wow.. I went to a drive-in when i was little and it was tight,, (maybe its my young imagination or wishful thinking) but it was in Sherwood Arkansas. It had 2 screens, but I think i can recall it having a carnival in it,, (i think i remember) a big ferris wheel. Either way, I think thats my next venture. Is to start a drive in theater with a stage in front of the screen, (so local artist of all music genres can perform on certain nights , before, between, & after movies) I think it would b nice!

  • I wish there were a drive-in movie theater near me, I'd love to go!

  • I have 3 Drive-Ins with in 60 miles of Bloomington Il.We have one Gibson City Il

    and 2 in Springfield Il right on old US 66. Its fun to look back at yesteryear.

  • There used to be a Drive Inn in Houston at 45 and West Road where there is now a Frys Electronics and The Dump furniture store. Back in the 1980's.

  • I live in Houston. When I was in High School in the 80's there was a Drive Inn at 45 and West Road. Now it is the site of Fry's Electronics and The Dump.
