This should have an aka Top O Texas Drive-In. That was its original name. Car capacity was listed at 400. The former drive-in site is now a Aout Parts store & wharehouse. The correct address was 1432 E. Barnes St., Pampas, TX. It was just down from South Cuyler St.

Chuck; In the 1955 edition of Theatre Catalog, it lists both the Pampa Drive-In & the Top Of Texas Drive-In, both operated by Video Ind. Theatres, but with a slightly different car capacity.

Thanks Ken, but the address for the Pampa was the address that I listed, 1432 E. Barnes St. just down from So. Cuyler.

The Top O Texas Theater was moved from the north part of town to the former Pampa Drive In site in the early ‘80’s because a Wal-Mart was built there. The new one was a twin drive in. They just added another screen to the original one. There were even plans to add a third screen if it had been successful.
