Thanks for the interesting info, Brew, and for sparking some flashbacks.

I remember stuffing a few guys in the trunk so we could get them in without paying, though we did get caught a couple times ...sometimes they had one price for a carload. Since I grew up in Philly right across the river from Camden NJ, and frequenting all the local active drive-in's back then, I did know that they started locally. Right about when we were late-teens the drive-ins started showing XXX movies so that gave us more incentive to go, just a bunch of guys and a couple cases of beer; I don't know anyone who took their girlfriend to the X rated drive-ins; first saw Deep Throat, Misty Beethoven, Fritz the Cat, and a couple other "classics" at the drive-in.
