There was an article on this in the Wisconsin State Journal earlier this week as well. It's neat to see a drive-in staying competitive and staying open instead of going by the wayside like so many of them have done.

Did you know that there are only 7 drive-in movie theaters in the entire state of Florida? Thankfully, one is relatively near me:

More of them exist in New York, believe it or not. All of them are upstate, which isn't so hard to believe at all.

The Warwick one closed? Cause, yeah, it's not exactly NYC, but it sure as heck ain't upstate.

I remember seeing the one along US 9 in Malta last year. Was pretty neat to see an actual open drive-in theater!

Closed? Are you sure? Because I've got an update for between August 26 and September 1, 2011 right here:

Warwick may not be the Adirondacks, but it's still upstate to me.
