The Victory Drive-In opened around 1950, and featured a large screen tower with the drive-in's name spelled out in large red letters at the top. The Victory also featured a children's playground and a large concession area.

The theater closed after the 1986 season, and was soon demolished. However, although the property was purchased by a church in 1988, it wasn't developed.

As someone who lived behind The Victory Drive In, I have to tell you it was open until at least 1984.

Sorry to tell Bryan but is wrong on a couple of things. The Victory Drive-in did open in 1950 but the large letters that spelled Victory on the top of the screen did not appear until at least the late 1950's.
The theater did NOT close after the 1980 season but closed after the 1986 season. Then it was torn down a very short time afterwards. A church did buy the property but as of summer of 2005, there is NOTHING on the site except a few remnant car ramps. Check out my website below for more info.
