The Rio opened April 23, 1952 with the first movie “Copper Canyon”. A 35 x 47 screen. Crockett Amusement Company was the owner/operator. Olin Dickey was the manager. Location what is now East Loop 304 and SR 19 (South 4th Street). The old concession building stood for years before being torn down.
As Ken wrote it parked 250 cars in 1956 and the owners were Robb&Rowley. Mary Sue why didn’t you tell me about the old Drive-in?
Crockett,Texas is suppose to have a beautiful restored downtown theatre. I have a Classmate from High School that lives there and she said it was a gem. Didn’t know about the Rio drive-in.
