rosarito is busy building a drive-in theater on the beach what a great idea to keep folks distanced, they've had one in tijuana for some time, walmart is building 160 drive-ins in their parking lots..... anyone else in baja have one in their town?

i'd guess you dont get out much...

you watch movies and tv on your phone

Nahhhh. Going to the drive-in will be great fun. Making out in the back seat. Popcorn. Really bad speakers... Acne.

I'd go. Just to support the idea.

Drive-in theaters are great! 2 things i like to do on road trips in usa to fill time in evenings: drive-in movies, minor league Baseball games.

nearest drive-in theatre us is the Clantee (nee Santee) drive-in, always a good experience, but a bit grimy due to san diego dry climate not washing the pavement very often, and sometimes a bit of east county redneck vibe.

My favorite drive-ins are the rural unpaved theatres that have mowed grass parking area.

As a kid we used to go to a drive in where people built camp fires by their cars... haven't seen that in a while....

Minor league baseball! Those are great too. Ten-cent beer night and/or ten-cent hot dog night (Thursdays?). Smell of freshly cut grass. Local groupies chasing the ball players. All good fun.

I live in san diego, so only got sterile big league stadium, impersonal, seating too far away, overpriced, it’s just blah....

Can only see real baseball by leaving town...

Yeah, but that's California.
