Clarksville had two drive-in theatres: the Moon-Lit Drive-In which opened September 1, 1949 with Frank Sinatra in “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” (the Sunset Drive-In opened October 25, 1950). The Moon-Lit Drive-In was initially owned H.L. McKinney and later by A.R. Tabesco and R.L. Danner. Located northwest of Nashville, Tennessee, it was demolished in the late-1970’s.
