25 Drive In Auto Theatre

Last week we took the girls to their first drive in theatre. Jeff and I had both been before but it was years ago and in other towns. So this was everyone's first experience with the 25 Drive In. Mattie has been begging to see Turbo and it was playing on a Thursday night. We loaded up sleeping bags, chairs and blankets. We took the truck so we could back in and everyone could have a good, comfortable seat. When we arrived we were greeted by a nice lady that took our money and promised us her husband could make you the best bacon cheeseburger you ever had in your life. Unfortunately we ate dinner before coming and decided to just snack on popcorn. Popcorn and sweet tea both came with free refills! The movie doesn't start until dark so we had about an hour to kill. Luckily there is a playground so the girls had a great time playing and munching on popcorn. It was almost 9pm before the movie started and we were sure the girls would never make it until the end, but they both stayed awake for the entire show! Both screens (there are two) play two movies per night but its ok if you want to leave after the first one. The quality was great and we cranked up our radio for sound. The theatre uses a radio station for sound and some people near us were confused by that. Overall it was a good time and would be a great place to take out of town guests! The company has a Facebook page and posts showings and times. They also have a website with more info including the menu. TIP: Bring bug spray, they charge you to use theirs. And bring cash for the snack bar and you get $1 off your order! http://www.25drivein.com/
