| - Wifey & I went here 3/14/2009... Saturday night at the drive in movie theater! It was sort of like a Twilight Zone episode, going back in time! My parents used to take us when we were really young in Southern California. We brought a pizza (Ray's), lawn chairs, a large cooler with sodas, a small table, and sat outside the car and watched the first of two films. Besides the smoker next to us, it couldn't have been a more perfect evening! You can chat during the film, bring your own munchies (or dinner in our case), and completely relax, all for the price of $6.50 per person! The sound is OK, as it comes out of your car radio. I suggest bringing a "boom box" if you are sitting outside, otherwise you have to blast your radio to hear.
Many people have never been to a drive-in, or they forgot their drive-in etiquette, so here's a not so subtle reminder of things you may have forgotten... 1. When entering the screen area, if the movie has begun, turn off your main headlights as to not blast the screen with light. 2. Drive slow- the parking area is not paved and you'll kick up dust if going over 5 MPH. 3. Smoke away from other people. 4. Keep pets and children to a dull roar- If they aren't interested in watching the film, let them go to the snack bar and play around at the arcade.
Food prices were very reasonable- Hot dog- 2 bucks, hamburger 3 bucks, sno-cones, 1 dollar... But I suggest bringing your own goodies.
Overall, great experience, killer value, excellent facilities, and we'll be back!
