The Highway 270 Drive-In opened its gates on May 17, 1949 with Red Skelton in “The Fuller-Brush Man” along with an unnamed cartoon.

The drive-in was still intact in 1980. By 1995, the screen was gone.

I’m not sure what the term “evergreen plants” mean in the description. The 1955 and 1980 aerial photos only show a few trees and no plants of any note around the drive-in.

The 270 Drive-In is listed as a Robb & Rowley property in 1950

Update: The address for this theater is now 302 E US Hwy 270, McAlester, OK 74501 per Google. This points directly to the drive in itself. The address above is incorrect.

Please update.

The actual address (at least for Google) is 332 U.S. 270, Krebs, OK. Although demolished, you can still see the outline and ramps. http://tinyurl.com/j8n7qyv

Photo isn’t right. The 270 Drive-in in McAlester was in Krebs. The address is right though, 302 US 270. Us Mac kids would go out with a car load to watch B porn. The last movie I watched was “Reform School Girls” and “Oriental Vixen.” Just some soft nudity and all of the good parts cut out. We even had some of the guys from Camp Hudgens come out with us. They got in so much trouble when one of the kids was shocked and told the camp director, Bro. Paul McCullough. But he just said, “Look, I can’t be here every weekend, I’m going to leave it to you guys to pick the right movies.”
