Even though many people prefer to watch movies in the theater, their homes or on their phones now, a lot of people cherish the tradition of driving into a park and watching a movie on a large screen while munching on their favorite food. Drive-in theatres were popular because it was one activity the entire family could do together. Moviegoers could bring their babies, visit, and eat. Before drivein's, movie theaters didn’t allow or frowned upon large families attending a movie. The drive-in was created for seniors who found it hard to comfortably sit in indoor movie theaters. Richard M. Hollingshead Jr. made a small drive-in theater for his mom in his driveway and placed a big screen in his backyard with a Kodak projector on his car. By the late ’50s, more than 3,000 drive-ins could be found in the U.S. When cable TV, and VCRs became popular during the early ’90s, the trend of drive-in theatres began to decline.
