Seems a lot of RVs park in Walmart lots, too. Guess they could make it more “official” for RV parking since sales of RVs now are through the roof.

Space Jam and Jaws are mentioned in other articles. The second would definitely be a great draw.

But, only when it's dark, though people can go shopping during the day and stay for a movie.

Isn’t Tribeca a DeNero enterprise?

Great innovation! I always loved drive-ins. Now maybe they are back.

(The Rose Bowl is going to be showing movies, as well. Maybe the trend will spread.)

I am sure Walmart Chinese handlers approved of this.

Not that long ago, every Walmart allowed RVs to park overnight. The reason it is diminishing is local ordinances, not a change in Walmart policy.

Local RV parks hate the competition and lobby hard for laws that limit it.

No surprise they are in deep financial trouble.

Jaws must be the most scary movie I have ever seen. I couldn't even swim in a pool for weeks after watching it.

Or they can go shopping after the movie. Our local Walmart is always open.

Walmart is toast. They will be merging with Amazon before long.

Walmart’s online business is fulfilled by Amazon now.

Well that’s ironic. Back in the day one of the 1st Walmart’s in my town bought up the property my beloved drive in was on...I guess everything is cyclic.
