The drive-in was seen in the 1957 aerial view, meaning that this opened during the 1950s.

50sSNIPES commented about Scott City Drive-In on Jan 4, 2026 at 5:05 am

1981 aerial view shows the drive-in in operating shape, but traces were completely fading by 1985. I cannot confirm if it was still operating at that time. As of 2026, the projection booth/concession booth was still standing, but the screen had been timbered to the ground ever since as early as 2006.
