“ Theatres as small as Classrooms” Why would any theatre chain ever have a theatre that small.Usually,when all this multi-plexing went crazy in the 70’s,most theatre chains had decent qauds,like MASTERS 4 in Augusta,Even the two smaller theatres were big enough to enjoy any movie,except maybe, 2001.
Yeah,I could only think to put Steve Martin on the Marquee,but even his name did not help.I can’t believe it played anywhere over three weeks.Not including get dumped on a Drive-in in the same city.
Karina,I know you guys had deal for free pizza.Heavens knows as long as I had movie passes i never paid for Pizza and even had deal with Mcdonalds.Good managers should always take care of the crew.Plez don’t tell me you bought the PIZZA.
James,the HUB DRIVE-in parked 325 cars and was owned by Hub Drive-in Theatre Corp.

We do live in a Computer age.Thanks,now I will have to drive by and check it out.

Nick i added those old theatres in town on CT.I thanked you on the Grand Opera house one.
Thanks Stan.I couldn’t answer that question like I knew you could.
Yes.I noticed that S.Sam.We never found out when it closed.I think when I went by there in 1975 it might have been closed.
Thanks Jay allen.
thanks S.Sam.
Sad looking theatre,Thanks for the picture chuck1231.
My source says 250 cars.
I have it parking 300 cars,but we know these figures are sometimes off.
Thanks Larry for remembering the Cairo Drive-in.
Another Carmike closed theatre,do they ever stay open?
Thanks.
Looks like an Opera House for sure.
Yep.it’s closed.
Looked like a nice quad.

When is 2001 coming back to the Tampa.
the Sunset did park 300 cars.And it was owned in 1956 by Alex Stornelli.

Allen0318,try and get opening day movies if you can.Be great to see what they opened with.Thanks for the entry.
Thanks for pictures,KenRoe and Ian.I still think your older theatres are so much better.That could be a AMC in KansasCity.Not England!
