Hello everyone, thru CT, I have acquired a couple theaters from my last post. I have a drive-in that I want to give someone here a chance to run and own. It’s in Kentucky. If you ever dreamed of operating your own theater, then contact me. The drive-in is open and makes money. I just have too many theaters and want to let someone run this one.
Thanks

is it open year-round? and what if you’re not from kentucky?
its currently open mardch until oct, next year it will be open much longer, no it does not matter if your from KY or not, we also will be opening flea market on the weekends there this year, thank you
Who is the current booker for copies of the previous & current years grosses?
cloded books, we do our own sometimes and a friend that owns 21 theaters does the other one
Cloded books? Do you mean “Closed Books”? If so, please provide either the theatre name or EDI Theatre code.
sorry yes it is closed books as i got it that way from the former operator, send me your email, phone, and i will be happy to talk with you further, thank you
Sorry, something just doesn’t sound right about this. Please provide the name of the theatre, and I can find my own numbers.
As i said, you provide me with your contact information and i will be happy to let you know where, who, the phone number etc, there is nothing that sounds wrong about that, take care
See you soon Marshall
Yu might want to read my other reply take care sir
its a scam, look at the name ,common guys cyndi lauper its a false scam to get someones money take this posting down!
Sorry John to have you say, that, i am NOT THE cyndi Lauoper even though i wish i had her money at ANY time, if you give me your contact information, i will be most happy to show you the truth, and then if you were to say something it really would cost you in a court of law, but, no one wiil do that so, i guess no one is willing to call me on it, i can provide what you need, but, if you want to continue saying stuff that is not true be my guests
Let me set this matter to rest, once and for all.
I was contacted by ‘Mike’ to be a partner in his VA theater, on which he had a lease, but it needed over 30k worth of rehab and needs to be brought up to code, etc. Then he found another theater, a drive-in in KY. I was contacted by the leasee, who gave me a buyout AND the owners gave me a NEW lease with the option to buy this at a price.
Mike cannot make more then $600 a month or he will lose his disability check, so I have researched and there is no way, short of doing it illegally, and with my contract with the owners of the theater and myself, I cannot and will not do anything illegal, so I ADVERTISED for a partner who had money who wanted to work, be it silent or otherwise, since Mike could not be a partner because he was unwilling to ‘risk’ his 1500 a month.
As for being in Florida, the theaters I have are not in Florida and have nothing to do with anything. Now, this is the final story in this matter, and as of today, I am still looking for a silent or working partner.
Oh my this sounds interesting. How much money would a person need to qualify for this theatre. A gentleman friend might be willing to spend a little if it is not to risky. I went to a few driveins. Are you Mike. I am so sorry that you are on disability. Was it work related. I knew a Mike but he moved to Texas.
There is no max or min really i just wanted a partner that is into theaters, no am not Mike,thank you
Was this drive-in recently listed on eBay?
it ws listed, pulled becasue of a error, thanks
Was the error because the listing had pictures of other drive-ins? If so, how come it was not re-listed with pictures of the drive-in for sale?
I had let a few know they would be used, but someone did not like it, so it was pulled, i ahve several people that were interested that have seen the true informationa nd the site, including a attorney, thank you
