Going to the drive in on the Sunday over Memorial Day weekend probably wasn't the smartest thing to do in terms of timing. Thank god we had my hubby ahead of us in another car, who saved us a spot since we were running a little late. And being late almost cost us from getting in!
The line of cars was backed up to the highway exit! It was crazy! Once we got to the front there was a teenage kid yelling "everything's sold out," voice cracking and all. We just took a gamble to see if we could park and walk to our other car. Thankfully, we were able to get into another movie and walk over to ours, which was sold out. It won't surprise you that it was The Hangover and Bridesmaids.
Hubby was parked right by the food stand, score! The snacks are totally cheap and it didn't hurt that the sweet smell of fried dough lingered in the air the entire night. It did hurt to not buy one, but the line was SO long!
I do wish the bathrooms were bigger. The women's line, of course, was the longest line. It's also SUPER loud when a plane flies overhead. It doesn't help that the airport is pretty much right next door. I'm not sure what came first, the drive-in or the airport, but one of them should have stayed away from the other!
I feel lucky we still have a drive-in in Pittsburgh still!. The atmosphere is quintessential summer and who doesn't love that?!
