Drive -In Nostalgia Baby and An Awesome Giveaway

Ah the nostalgia of the Drive -In, get dressed in your PJ's , load the car up with more snacks than you can imagine, load the car up with bodies , lawn chairs ,and blankets ; and head off for the outdoor theater movie experience.

To the times when you had to roll down your window and put the speaker on your car window, make all the kids pile out until the movie started and play with all the kids on the have been since banned scary but best fun park equipment , and at the same time watch your head for baseballs flying past. ( ...seriously don't go back to the car till the first movie beginning credits roll. The unspoken but don't mess with this parent rule, and unforgiving esp. if you want that bag of Twizzlers)

To the smell of the concession stand where the best popcorn , burgers , hot dogs and fries were filling your senses making you zombie fill line to the concession and grab yourself that snack .

And to the final hilarity when it is time to go home. Cause by this time kids are asleep and sprawled all over each-other (having fought half the night for who gets the best viewing seat) . The ones asleep outside , in the cab or on the roof are picked up and shoved in where they will fit to go home . Let's be honest seat belts weren't a thing back then so if you are sleeping sprawled across the back seat or floor; there is a 99% chance that is where you stayed for the drive home . Come home and drag yourself inside with popcorn and gum and candy in your hair and anywhere it managed to make it's way back in .

So over the years a lot of these outdoor cinemas gave way to abandonment and people started watching inside in style more than at the Drive-In , and then of course came stores like Video Stores ( gasp) and you could watch in the comfort of your own home. But some stayed , and stayed they did.. sure you no longer get to put the big martian looking speaker on your window and pray that it doesn't shatter your glass  , it is all radio waves now, but the tech age children can still have the Drive -In experience.

You may be thinking where can you get such an experience and to that I say through Premier Theaters Mustang Drive-In in London Ontario. ( hint hint  insert website HERE ) . Of course the other locations HERE ( hint and SPOILER ALERT you can use the price at any one of the Premier Theaters)
