Went often as a kid. Leaned over the front seat to watch. Went on July 4 for fireworks. Saw Night of the Living Dead as #2 of a double feature. Saw double feature of MASH and Patton with a friend. 🤦‍♂️ We saw The Ten Commandments in Asheville NC while on vacation. Looomnnngggg movie.
It was a regular family outing with play area, popcorn and window speaker, and Tom & Jerry cartoon.
