The Fox Drive-In Theatre was named after its operator, Billy “Fox” Johnson who raced with the Joy Drive-In to see who could open first. Billy and the Fox won opening July 7, 1949 with “A Date With Judy” while the Joy opened months later in November.
In 1957, the operators of the downtown Don Theatre took on the Fox and renamed it the Don Drive-In. The theatre lasted into the video age.
