I noticed it will be open this weekend, following its typical format of 3 shows Fri and Saturday nights and two shows on Sunday.

Hop, Soul Surfer and Battle: Los Angeles kick it off

I've always been a fan of drive-ins, so long as it's a comfortable auto and I don't have to cram myself into some tiny lil' excuse for an auto. I'm not a sub compact kind of guy

LOL,I drive a Honda Civic and I could'nt see myself trying to get comfortable in that car at a drive-in for 2 1/2 -3 hours,especially when I'm 6ft tall and 220 lbs!Drive-in's are best in a SUV,Van or in The bed of a truck.Glad to see The Winchester still going strong!

In younger days I drove an f-150 stepside. The cab was not a comfortable movie venue. Mv fav drive-in seat back then was arrive with an oversized beanbag covered by an oversized unzipped sleeping bag, with a cooler nearby, in the truckbed. Prop the speaker up on a bucket, then kick back and enjoy.

Now it's one of my larger vehicles. Two decades ago it was the gran prix, but I've sort of outgrown the gran prix seat, at least for a 3 movie night anyway.
