What are these Theater’s?? They closed All the Drive-In’s almost 30 years ago.

Not true...I still have a drive in near where I live and I go there at least once a year.

Just for nostalgia!

About 10 years ago, we had a woman from Finland who had been a foreign exchange student with my family back in the Seventies come back to visit us, and brought her son with her.

She wanted to do something really “American”, and I thought there were few things more “American” than a drive in theater! We went to see “The Simpson’s Movie”, which they chose.

I found out that The Simpsons are extremely popular in Finland, probably because it is what they think America is like...:)

I also took them to a Boston Bruins game, because Tukka Rask was playing (from Finland)

We’ve got a drive in about 30 minutes from us. We go several times a summer. It was built about fifteen years ago and is packed on the weekends. First run double feature with one G/PG-13 plus one PG 13/R afterwards. Family atmosphere, $5 a person to get in, a reasonably priced concession (convenience store offerings and prices), and never any trouble. Of course, it is on the edge of a small city in the middle of farm country, but it is good!
