Interesting that the website is down, but the phone message is current. Running first run films on a 2-day schedule.
An odd drive-in.
You do not see that every day.
Cool name for a drive in.
Here is a 2009 photo:

For the record, that style of truck is called a COE, Cab Over Engine. There is a collector following for such trucks. They are not always flatbeds.
There were tow-trucks and other models that had the driver situated over the engine. Hence the pug nose.
The Spud Drive In has the best hamburgers I have ever had. The carmel popcorn is to die for. But don’t take my word for it try one on for size.
A Christmas Spud. I wonder how many tater tots you could make from a spud that size. LOL
Ouch.
This Spuds for you. :)

Smith is right, that truck is ugly.

It is just amazing to see a Drive-In still up and running, I hope they have allot of success. Keep up the good work.
