After Miles, I believe Chakeres took it over.

Was this also known as the Kingman Drive-In? I know the Kingman was near the Franklin/Delaware county line, and that the Kingman once showed porn during the winter months.

The Kingman was a different drive-in, further north.

Yeah, North High was definitely different than Kingman. North High Drive-In, the one time I was there, was the quietest drive in I HAD ever been too. (Go figure), It was pseudo eerie.
