Back in April when I was seriously looking into buying an existing drive-in here in Tennessee, the existing operator (not the owner) would NOT give up any numbers at all. I got ahold of a couple of other drive-in owners who suggested calling a film booker, and they might be able to help. We did just that, and we got enough information from his report to decide we would NOT pursue the purchase any further. I was amazed at what information he could get. However, I think what the existing operator "turned in for grosses" vs. "what they actually pulled in" might be a little different. I found it extremely hard to believe that a theatre (drive-in or hard top) could only pull in $3,800.00 (TOTAL) for 3 weeks of Spiderman @ 1 week off the break. ------------------ Barry Floyd Floyd Entertainment Group Lebanon, Tennessee Stardust Drive-In Theatre Watertown, Tennessee
