Crockett,Texas is suppose to have a beautiful restored downtown theatre. I have a Classmate from High School that lives there and she said it was a gem. Didn’t know about the Rio drive-in.
As Ken wrote it parked 250 cars in 1956 and the owners were Robb&Rowley. Mary Sue why didn’t you tell me about the old Drive-in?
The Rio opened April 23, 1952 with the first movie “Copper Canyon”. A 35 x 47 screen. Crockett Amusement Company was the owner/operator. Olin Dickey was the manager. Location what is now East Loop 304 and SR 19 (South 4th Street). The old concession building stood for years before being torn down.
