As many drive-ins did in the 1950s, the Vegas filed a federal anti-monopoly lawsuit because it couldn’t get first-run movies. That was reported in the Denver Post on Nov. 23, 1958, when the drive-in was owned by Las Vegas man Gus Daskalos and Green River WY’s Steve Nitse.
Boxoffice, April 8, 1950: “Gus Daskalos and Steve Nitse reported capacity business at the opening of their Vegas Drive-In at Las Vegas, N. M. The new drive-in, with 350-car capacity, cost about $50,000.”
The address is: 2805 Las Vegas Blvd, Las Vegas, NM 87701. That address is on the wrong side of the road. The drive-in was located underneath I-25.
