Went to the Columbia Theater to see Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome. They had a free sneak screening the night before the movie opened..

I worked here briefly over the summer of 1988. I cut the grass and such. Mr. Harvey was a great manager.

My wife and I went to the final night of this drive-in in 1998. We saw Deep Impact.

Cobb Place 8 opened in 1986, several months after Town 8 opened. We used to go see their sneak peek movies on Thursday nights, and they would come to ours.

Worked from 1986-1989. I actually worked here BEFORE it opened (early 1986). I moved up from the south side of town (Jonesboro) to work here. Worked at National 6 in College Park previously. I was a projectionist, then Manager. Good times!

I miss Storey Theaters…

This is correct. It burned down sometime in 1971. We used to go see movies here occasionally. It seemed huge to me. I was just a 5 when it burned down. I remember seeing Herby The Love Bug and Song Of The South here.
