Most of us thought Drive-in-Theaters were a thing of the past. We remember great times at the drive-in with window speakers, homemade pizza, lots of fresh air and stars. Cool nights with your favorite guy or girl made for a great date. We still don't know why the windows fogged up. Years later we were with the spouse and a back seat full of kids and popcorn. The following is a list of drive-ins still operating. Following that is a list of the drive-ins that went out of business along with many of our memories.
