That's funny, I had a guy walk up to me late last summer and asked "You guys sell beer?", but he did it in a tone of such conviction and confidence that I'm certain he expected me to immediately ring off our many options by bottle or on-tap. It seemed a silly question to us, but I always remind staff that we are so used to "how a drive-in works" (and why selling booze to drivers might be a bad idea), we need to remember that for many, this is entirely new and something they do very rarely, or haven't in many years.
The flip side of that is all the people that say "Wow, not many of these left, hope you can keep it going." To which I always say, "No danger in us closing so long as people continue to enjoy movies." It's true way more of us were built than could ever be sustained long term, however at this point, we're just another fun place to watch a movie. I've heard of a few places that sell beer and wine, I'm sure it adds a nice bump to sales but I don't think I'd ever touch it.
