Remember drive-in theater and a restaurant car hop?

A Saturday afternoon trip to the drive-in movie with a date and a ride Sunday afternoon was rounded off with a hamburger delivered to shake and your car from someone on roller skates, what we called a great weekend in 1950. This experience is in the depths of our minds, but the good memories alive and safe fun.

was at the height of popularity in the 50s and early 60s is about 4,000 units, in theaters across the United States. So this American icon,in 1934 the country had started a handful of locations scattered around with only had a profit before the possibility for other entertainment, rising land prices and the erosion of revenue has finally closed.

Although some families were free to their children (children), the exhibition with the hope that they would sleep shortly after the film begins at dusk, people tend to be young people. Many of them were about the dates and safety of the Drive-In was the bad taste of favoriteLover's Lane, who led the popular nickname of "Passion Pit". We all remember the windows fogged and other telltale signs that people in cars were doing more than just the "Return of the Creature from the Black Lagoon."

Who can forget the cheese ads with the dancing hot dogs, popcorn and soft drinks reminds us that the concession stand was open and there were only a few minutes, so many left before the show again? Or that the speakers fit on your window and delivered sound badQuality (to start pulling out before returning to the state)? And how dollars overnight in the middle of the week when a shipment was lost in one dollar? These were all part of adolescence for most pre-boomers.

Another fun part of this glorious year was the car hop restaurant. Although the service brake had been around since 1920 and drive-through restaurants on the stage came in the mid 30s, was self-hop began to operate in 40 years, reaching some 10 years later. TheRoller skating servers, the "Show Biz" is part of the phenomenon.

While there are some car-hop service restaurants now, the skaters are long gone. But movies that portray the coup era FAD was greater and lasted longer than it actually did. Can you say "American Graffiti?" The story on both sides of the car hop period is interesting. The precursors of today's fast-food dates back to 1921, when White Castle, a chain of Mid-West, a limited menu of hamburgers offered. AboutAt the same time A & W Root Beer offices in franchising. Over the years, these concepts in food operations, which we know so well developed. However, the term "fast food" was the first time in 1951. Interestingly, no McDonald's drive-through to 1975.

Facts are nice to know, but the feeling then that count. The next time you pass the point where there was a drive-in theater or go to a restaurant with your grandchildren, tell them the good times of our generationis back in the old days. At that moment a truck of your friends have the Drive-In for a dollar and a burger and shake you go under a dollar, plus it was delivered to you on shoes. What fun we had.
