Dragon Drive-In

The Drago Drive-In was ‘Under Construction’ in 1953/1954. It was operated by J.B. Yongue & Exhibitor Service Co.

One way to make the paper is play the X-rated "I Am Curious Yellow", Don Davison was charged with showing motion pictures objectionable to local police. Davison ran the Dragon Drive-In when so many drive-ins were seeing what limits they could go. The Jacksonville newspapers would not even run the advertisement. It possibly closed in the late-1970’s

I think this took place in the late 60’s or early 70’s article had no date.

I know it was open in 1967.

We need an address, more info and photos.

Looks like this was east of town on 441. A church occupies the site now. The church’s address is 17155 NW US Highway 441.

The above address will map accurately to the location of the drive-in.

Here is a USGS topo map noting the location of the drive-in east of town on US 441.

The Dragon Drive-In opened in the early 1950s, and may’ve closed in the late 1970s.
