I can recall going to the Fort George Drive-In up in Southgate, Michigan, when I was six or seven years old. I still recall the movie that played that night - "A Boy Named Charlie Brown".

I wish I now had a drive-in theater here where I currently reside.

Still, this does bring back the memories. Thanks for posting, friend!

I'm also from the one-time drive-in capital of Pittsburgh: We still have a great lineup of outdoor theaters, don't we? Comet, Evergreen, Malden, Brownsville, Skyview Twin, Hi-Way, Riverside, Dependable, Kane Road, Twin Hi-Way.

Qman, were you a member of the defunct Drive-In Theater (Fanatic) Fan Club like I was?

[theqman1956]

not a member but have been to all of these, and several that are defunct, as well as some from Cincinnati now defunct...

@DAN4279 When I lived in Cincinnati, I went to the Woodlawn Drive In on Ohio 4, and the Jolly Roger, which was off I-275 Near Montcellar (wrong spelling) Rd. That one only lasted about 7-8 years...

that was of course more than 40 years ago!

i love the comet!!! i literally live down the street and can walk to it..... and i grew up battling the sunday flea market crowds to just get out of Morrell.... i remember when it laid dormant for many years and someone thankfully took the time to bring it back... it's one of the few nice things we have left in fayette county!!

Good ole Connellsville.Ilove the Comet(:

Eight drive-ins! Lucky you. We've got nata here in the old retirement state of Florida!

Nice video. I drove by here last August during the day and stopped to take some pics and video. I live in Salem Oregon and we have two drive-in's nearby. The last two times I was actually turned away because it was sold out...nice to see them thriving ANYWHERE. Would love to have enough money to open one myself. I think they are on the verge of a comeback.

You all are so lucky! There's only one drive-in theater left in all of southeast Michigan that I know of, the Ford-Wyoming in Dearborn. All of the ones I remember from when I was a kid are now gone. The Gratiot, Bel-Air, Galaxy, and Mt. Clemens were all torn down between 1984 and 1995.
