The Grand was located next to Rhoden Stationery and Printing Co., 125 S. Main St. In fact, Rhoden’s used the theater building as a storage warehouse. I remember going in there as a child to look around and there is no way it could have held 500 people. The stage was still there and I believe the floor had already been leveled. The front of the bulding, however, still had a small lobby of a theater. Rhoden’s was always a blast to go in because it looked like they had not gotten any new stock since WWII.
I grew up in Moultrie and never heard anything about a Drive In by this name. I think it is listed in the wrong city.

I just posted a photo of where this Drive In had been located. It was on Roland Drive, just off 1st Ave. S.E. (Quitman Hwy)
