The first drive-in theater opened 82 years ago today, in 1933. Do you remember the first movie you saw at a drive-in theater?

Not sure about that. But I remember going to bargin night at our Drive in movie every Tuesday night with my two sisters. One night we were there watching a movie. The bugs were thick. My sister decided to spray off in the car. Yup we watched the movie from the hood of the car after choking on the smell.
