We still  have a couple drive-in movies in the area.? There is one in 
Moneta near  
Smith Mtn. Lake near the Mayberry Diner.? There is the Star-Light in  
Christiansburg Va.? But the best is Hull's Drive-in about an hour away in  
Lexington.? 


I am a HUGE fan of drive-in theaters!  I've been to every one of the  ones 
you named, and took pictures.  I even drove all the way from Gadsden,  
Alabama to see a double feature at the one in Monetta (nicknamed "The Big  
Mo").  
We do have a few still going here in Alabama as well, including an  
especially nice one in Centre, Alabama called the 411, after Highway 411.
 
I wish we could've seen some of the Mayberry characters actually going to a 
 drive-in, it would've been a perfect fit with their car culture.  As it  
was, we do hear Barney asking Juanita to the drive-in, and we do see Gomer  
taking Carol Burnett (long after he joined the Marines).
