I believe dallasmovietheaters, but I just found this note.

Motion Picture Herald, July 12, 1952: “Joe Sikes opened his new 250-car, $50,000 Stockade drive-in at Chadron, Neb., on July 5.”

The Stockade Outdoor Theatre opened July 8, 1952 with Vincent Price in “Bagdad” and Dick Powell in “You Can Never Tell.”

Adding emphasis to the closing date. Boxoffice, March 16, 1957: “The Black Hills Amusement Co., which recently bought the Stockade Drive-In, Chadron, Neb., is dismantling the ozoner.”

Found It!

The address is 5 Stockade Road, Chadron, NE. The address points to where the old entrance/exit roads used to be, but no longer exist.

A 1966 aerial shows the drive-in demolished, although you can clearly see the outline, ramps, and entrance/exit roads. Today it is private property, but you can still just see the outline.
