The June 25, 1955 issue of Boxoffice reported, “A new 500-car drive-in, the Midway Drive-In, has been completed and opened at Fulton, Ky., by D. B. Stout of the Stout Theater Circuit out of Cairo, IL. Formal opening was Tuesday (22) with Barry Sullivan in "The Miami Story”.
A 1955 aerial photo showed a drive-in on US 51 about three miles north of Fulton. In April 1957 it was renamed Fulton Drive-In. In May 1961 it was renamed Marlbro Drive-In.
By 1968, it had been replaced by a cemetery, Pleasant View Memorial Gardens.

A closer address is 2061 US-51, Fulton, KY.
This address lines up with the entrance to the cemetery which appears to be the entrance to the old drive-in.
