Does anyone remember the Westbury Drive in or the drive in that was located in Bayshore. Share your memories.

I went to the Westbury drive in a few times in my late teens and early 20's.It was fun. I am sure there wer others on LI but I don't remember.

The Westbury Drive-In was in Jericho ("Westbury, NY 11590" mailing address).

You'll like this site (attached URL). Your question reminded me of the old drive-in I use to go to in what I could have SWORN was Amityville ... I found a mention of one old drive-in located in Massapequa which closed in the '70's - but that's not the one I'm thinking of. Anyhoo, enjoy the link!

I think you might be talking about the the "Johnny All Weather Drive-in" in Copiague;
Johnny All-Weather Drive-in Theatre was located in Copiague, New York

(It was also on Sunrise Hwy and closed down around that time... and had a shopping center built over it).

I remember going to St. Patrick's mass at a drive in on 5th Ave in Bay Shore and our mom telling my sister she has to give her the Wake Up Little Susie 45rpm record by the Everly Brothers because the lyrics contained a verse about Susie getting home at 4am. I assume the priest was giving a sermon about immorality.

I remember going to the one by the LIE in Huntington, on Rt. 110, I think.

I went to the one in Westbury many times. One person would drive in alone and the rest of us would hop the fence for free. They would make the guy driving in open his trunk to see if there was anyone hiding in there. Fun times!
