Connecticut Drive-in Theaters

The Drive-in boom here in the Nutmeg State peaked a decade later than in most of America. By the mid 1960's, there were still more than 40 drive-in theaters operating in Connecticut. But since then, and like all other states, more than 90% of those drive-ins have closed. But the state still boasts 3 operating drive-ins.
