Hot Diggy! I do love drive in theaters, they just have that something special about them that I just love some much.
Besides giving the movie directly to the driven in owners.
So for those of you who are not aware of a few driven in etiquette let me be your guide.
- Hey you with the big freaking truck! Ah you are supposed to be in the back rows, most driven in owners will come around and inform those foolish people to move their big ass trucks back. Usually the first 10 rows are for smaller cars that wont block anyone view.
- All food that you buy at the driven in is the major source of income for this unsung heroes. So please, go ahead and purchase a hot dog, popcorn and your other delights from them.
-They only get 30 to 20% of the ticket sales, all that money you spent getting in is NOT what supports them and keeps them running. So be aware - yeah the tickets are way cheaper then your local theater - so again consider the snack bar at your local drive in.
I was not asked to write this for anyone drive in theater, these are my views. I do feel like its an older tradition to get out late at night in your car, bring a blanket a few chairs and enjoy the evening sitting outside watching the latest block buster.
Drive in movies for me are a long tradition and one I love and strongly support local theater owners. My teenage years where filled with dusk to dawn - movieramas. Jumping in and out of cars, meeting people either below the screen or by the snack booth. Sigh. The popcorn was usually awful, the soda's syrupy and I would end up with equal parts all over me by the end of the 5 movies! Great times.
See you on the flip side
