UPDATE: The Crystal Drive-In Was Renamed Back To Crystal Lake Drive-In Only During Its Last Year In Operation Until It Closed At The End Of The 1981 Season
(May To Mid-September) With Rated R Films (A Bit Close For Being X). They Closed The Theater For Good After 2 Fights That Injured 8 People, With One Being On July 11th, 1981.
The First One Is Unknown, But The Second One Is Known. The Second One On July 11th, 1981: McHenry County Sheriff Respond To The Crystal Drive-In After A Fight. The Drive-In Employee Is Knocked Out, And One Of The Workers Was Told to Stop A Movie On The Projector That Happened Around 12:30 AM. Only 8 People Have Minor Injuries (All Between 17-20 Years Old). Crystal Lake Police Said That The Fight Occurred When A Vehicle Struck An Employee At The Parking Row Who Works At The Crystal Drive-In.
Throughout The Late 1970s And Early 1980s, 2 More Incidents Were Reported. A Robbery Occurred At The Crystal Drive-In On July 31st, 1977. And On June 20th, 1979, The Crystal Drive In’s Screen Was Sprayed With Black Paint According To The Manager. That Happened Around 12:30 AM When A Maintained Ladder Had Been Climbed Leading To The Wooden Platform Of The Screen. No Witnesses Or Suspects Have Been Reported At The Time.
UPDATE: After The Screen Was Blown Down In September 1st, 1960; The Screen Was Rebuilt And Opened It A Couple Of Years Later. The Acres Drive-In Was Still In Operation Since 1975 As Southwest’s Acres Drive-In.
UPDATE: The Crystal Drive-In Did Not Close In The Early 1970s. As Of May 1977, The Crystal Drive-In Was Still In Operation, I Am Not Sure If Its In Its Last Legs Or Not Because At The Time, The Crystal Drive-In There Started To Play Horror Flicks As Of The Mid-1970s I Believe. So I Believe Since The Late 1970s Or Early 1980s Is When The Drive-In Has Its Last Operations And It Was Closed. As For The Leftovers, The Pathway Was Still A Bit Visible As Of April 1988.
On December 16th, 1991; Fulton County Police Interrupted A Robbery With 3 Gunmen In This Theater. 2 Robbers Fled And 1 Ran Into The Theater. Patrons Left The Theater, An Atlanta Braves Player Was One Of The Moviegoers At The Time. The Gunman Was Never Found At This Moment.
PLEASE UPDATE: The McKinney Drive-In And The Ritz Both Continued Their Operations Since November Of 1972 With The Ritz And McKinney Drive-Ins Both Switching Themes Of Films. The Ritz Were Showing A Double Horror Flick While The McKinney Drive-In Ran First-Run. It Is Operated By Showcase International At The Time. The McKinney Drive-In Did Not Appear In 1973, But The Ritz Only Did As Early As March 1973. So I Will Say It Closed In The Spring Of 1973 Because It Did Not Appear In The Summer 1973 Gazette.
Lakeland’s AMC Merchants Walk 10 Opened On June 5th, 1987 After AMC Spend Over $3.8 Million To Build The Theater On 3615 South Florida Avenue. It Is Closed On June 24th, 2007 With The Last Film “Knocked Up.” The Theater Closed Afterwards. It Did Display It On The Newspaper Until August 7th With The Words “Call Theater For Schedule.”
PLEASE UPDATE: The McKinney Drive-In (On Its Last Hands And Legs) And The Ritz Both Continued Their Operations Since November Of 1972 With The Ritz And McKinney Drive-Ins Both Switching Themes Of Films.

The McKinney Drive-In Did Not Appear In 1973, But The Ritz Only Did As Early As March 1973. So I Will Say The McKinney Drive-In Was Closed In Early 1973.
The New-Lynn Name I Believe Lasted For A Short Time.

Originally Opened As A 10-Screener Called The Loews Stony Brook 10.
I’m Afraid That The 112 I Believe Didn’t Open Until The 1970s. It Didn’t Appear In Either The 1961, 1968, Or 1971 Newspaper Listings…
The 71 Was Still In Operation Since 1971 According To The Northwest Arkansas Times.
Oh. Now I Get It. Thanks! Do You Know More Or Have More Information About The McKinney Drive-In?
And There Is Also A Loews Cinema 4 Also In Pembroke Pines.
In The Early 1950s It Was Named Family Outdoor Theatre Before Changing Its Name To Family Drive-In In 1955.
I Believe This Theater Replaced The Lakeland Square Mall 10, Which It Will Have Its Own CinemaTreasures Page Soon.
