The Twin Drive In Theatre was my home away from home in my teen years. It was located on Milwaukee Ave. just S. of Hintz Rd. in Wheeling IL. This was a pamphlet given to cars at the ticket booth. The Twin Drive In is long gone. Built in its place is vacant office space.
Once Illinois had 120 Drive In Theatres now only 12 remain open. M&R theatres had another location of a drive in close by in Palatine IL. called 53 Drive In which is closed also. Heres information on the Twin Drive In
