Joe Vogel, MrDrivein I grew up a mile from the Victory, and unless there was a change somewhere in the late 60’s or early 70’s, it was always located in the village of MF. Butler currently (& when I was growing up in the 70’s) only extended to ~ 132nd st, & not all the way to Lily rd, where the Victory was. Also, as far I can tell, Butler was never a township, but a village, and resided in the old MF township borders. I don’t recall if MF ever was actually a town, but it is based in the 6 mi x 6 mi grid space laid out for towns when the state was developed.

I also fondly recall sitting on our roof & watching the movies at the victory (without sound) through binoculars, and not so fondly recall how seedy it had become by the early 80’s.
