Since Steve Fitch says he took his photo of the old Fiesta on Jan. 1, 1981, its move to a new location had to have been later than that.
There are a zillion notes of drive-in burglaries, but this one was different enough to share. Motion Picture Exhibitor, April 18, 1962: “Police arrested three men and their wives looting the snack bar of the Fiesta Drive-In, El Paso, Tex., which is owned and operated by William M. Burke.”
Billboard, June 26, 1954: “Bobbie Harris, manager of the Fiesta Drive-In, El Paso, was knocked down in a clash with a picket. The drive-in was being picketed following dispute over the discharge of a projectionist.”
