Some things must have been right with the old drive-in, it is still open.

In 1956 it parked 360 cars and was owned by S.S.Stevenson. In his book “STROKE OF FORTUNE” about the Carolina Theatre Business,author William C.Cline writes about this Drive-in.“the operator at the time was a man called N.T."Tinker"Lyles and he was never happy with the booking.nothing ever came close to being right.You just could not please the man.”

One of the remaining drive-in theatres that is in operation in the greater Triangle area. The other one was the Starlite Drive-In Theatre in Durham,NC which is still in operation,but has closed due to renovation and who knows when this drive-in theatre will open soon.
