In 1942 there were nearly 100 drive ins scattered across America. Then in just 6 years the number increased to 820. So in the 1950s they added concession stands which brought more people and by 1958 there were 4063 drive ins in the US and Canada. Eventually Hollingshead added playgrounds and ramps so that cars could get on different levels to see the movie.And finally people could also bring babies and cigarettes which offered more flexibility and this caused more people to come.

What he did to see how it would work and how he got his invention was he put his mother in a car and tied a sheet to 2 trees and put a 1928 projector on the hood of the car " And thats how he got his invention and a lot of people probably enjoyed it because it was comfortable . Richard Hoillngshead expanded his event-ion like this he created a ramp system so every one could see the movie . A few years later Hollingshead in June of 1933    he open his theater to the public costing 25 cent per person . The classic drive in talier was from 1957 was dancing hot dogs
