I don’t think so. I think it was the same fault as other places in America that had 2+ drive-in theaters close to each other. For example in Lexington, South Carolina, there were two drive-ins very close to each other (probably in a 100 to 200-foot radius), but unfortunately, it does not have a mention involving them close to each other as I am aware of judging by various papers in Columbia.

Just asking: Since there were two drive-ins in Vivian at the same time, how do we know which is which? Is there a mention somewhere of the Wakea sitting just south of Chapelwood Cemetery, or of the Gay “just another 2000 feet north” like that?
