how can you see from the back???
And who’s parking at the front, along the right facing the rest of the cars?
Parking at the side or front is for when you drive there in your own car, and then get in your friend’s car for the movie.
This whole thing is a giant monument to how bad cars are for society. Like instead of having theater seats for your ass, we have seats for your car. And then these other people, they can’t even bother to carpool, pick their friend up. Instead the friend drives there in their own car, and then goes to join you in your car. Did anyone ever stop to think about how crazy that is?
Loved Halloween and drive ins when I was a kid.
I was up in Timmins one year with my family and we spent Halloween collecting candy and then everyone packed into a van to go to the local drive in. We stayed up watching cheesy horror films with Vincent Price and all the oldies back to back until about three in the morning. I don’t remember much because I fell asleep after falling off a sugar high about half an hour into the first movie and then slept the rest of the time. Nothing like waking in a daze to big giant images of Vincent Price on a big giant screen in the middle of the northern wilderness.
The red area is the equivalent of a stadium seat that is obstructed by a column:
It was sloped at every drive-in I went to - so you’d see over the canteen/projection room.
Half the fun was queueing for burgers, chips (fries), and/or pizza, and coke between the two features. The other half was sneaking beer in. Then the other half was… what was I talking about?
That’s a tiny screen for a drive in theater.
Imagine how much more space efficient it would’ve been if they had taken the bus instead.
