Default COVID-19 Idea

Might be a good time to think about bringing back drive-in theaters coast to coast.

It is a great idea. Unfortunately the land where previous drive-ins were located are now mostly condos and McMansions.

But . . . those states still having them may definitely see a resurgence in their use. Just have to close the concession stands and advertise bring your own food and drinks which will drive up the per person/car fee.

How they will get around the lines to the bathrooms could be dealt with.

Default Pee pot

The bathroom line situation is an easy fix. When we were kids
mom n dad take us to the drive in mom would take the old white metal pee pot n set it in the back floor board of dads 56 Chevy. Times were simply back then.
