I used to go to the one in Vegas all of the time. The weather in Louisiana is not conducive for this business though.

There used to be one here in Hattiesburg but it closed after Katrina. I don't think there are any at all in Mississippi.

There is one 10 minutes from my house. Up until a few years ago, it was $10 per vehicle($5 one night per week). Now it's like $5 per person.
The food is reasonably priced, but they also let you bring in grills or whatever before the movie.

The only ones I've had a chance to go to were really crappy.
Most of the big good ones (especially in California) closed down due to lawsuits (near highways) and changing times.
Only small crappy ones in small towns seem to continue like this crummy one in Dallas, Oregon which used to be near me...
It's a shame.

Sadly there are none left in our area. Great place to take a date back in the day.

I can remember being able to see the one in Shreveport from the interstate when I was a kid. Apparently there was 3 drive-in theaters in Shreveport

Got one near me, about a 30 min drive. I'm glad my son got to experience it.

I agree. There was one here in Lake Charles called the New Moon Drive In when I was a little kid.
It fell apart and was eventually torn down. Now it's a driving range but still has the New Moon name.
The last time I was at one was in 1989, I saw Total Recall at one but it was in central Pennsylvania, I was up there visiting my cousins.
I haven't even seen a drive in in 20+ years.
I always liked them.
