I used to love going to the drive-in theater - not only for the cool atmosphere but also for the price tag! I'd always get tickets for so much cheaper.
Does anyone still have a drive-in near them? Is it still cheaper than regular movie theater tickets for you?

I have still never been to a drive in theater! I want to though. It looks like a lot of fun, and more comfortable than a regular theater.
We have one here in Lubbock. I remember though, when I was growing up, we had 2 in the town we lived in. Oh man we had fun there. Good times.
My wife has been asking to go to one for quite some time now. We do not have one near us, closest one is like an hour away. I think the prices are pretty comparable for us though.
I think you might save money though as the ticket you purchase is for everyone in the vehicle.

I love them! Such a cool way to watch a movie. And you're right, very comfy!

I had one near me in the town I grew up in too!
Loved drive-in movies as a kid with homemade popcorn from the stove and koolaid to drink.... 2 sisters and I turned the back of the station wagon into a bed with blankets and pillows.

My mom would do that for my brother and me too! And she'd always have tons of snacks

We have one in Wichita, KS. The tickets on regular nights are $7 a person. They offer 2 screens and 3 movies each. You can definitely get your money's worth if you can stay awake for all of them. The have special nights every now and then. You pay $10 a carload. As a kid with 8 in the family, this was the only way we saw movies. My husband and I went to them a the time when we were dating.
Whoa! $10 a carload is a great deal!
