The concession stand was removed in 1982, otherwise the theater itself was almost attached, but I am not sure if the screen was standing at that time.

I spent quite a bit of time in La Follette growing up.I sure thought it was gone way before 1975.It must have been located off the main drag,because,The SKYWAY Drive-in,in that city was clearly on the road leading to 1-75. I wish i had the time and money to just hit the road and clear up about these Drive-ins I submitted.

Was open from ABOUT 1955-1975?

THE FILM DAILY YEAR BOOK OF MOTION PICTURES, 1967

Drive-In, Tennessee, La Follette, lists the Starlite, so it must have been open around 1967. Does anyone have any better info on dates or it’s address?
