Remember the Georgia Drive-In Theater? It was on what is now the campus of Kennesaw
State College. Also in the picture is
Clay Street Crossing the 4-lane, and probably
a slice of Pine Forest Apartments, the Bowling Alley, and I’m not sure Hodge
rothers Army Store was there yet or not.
Back to Georgia Drive-In:
When I worked for the Big Apple after I would get off on
weekends it was a good fun social place to go, it was a good place to run into
friends.
Once Jenky Latimer went.
What was on that night was a good movie, I forgot what. Right at the serious important part Jenky
drove his very identifier car down front, turned around to face all the cars
and turned on his brights. All the cars
blew their horns and we got the hell out of there, we already saw the movie
anyhow.
Another adventure.
Once Monty Calhoun and I were in a car driving north on the 4-Lane. A car with 4 boys about our age rode by and
shot us birds. Somehow we identified
them as Sprayberry High School boys and I think they identified us as Marietta
High School Boys.
We began to chase them.
Finally, the red light at the 4-Lane and Clay Street stopped them. We jumped out and dared them to come out. We even rocked their car. All 4 boys innocently looked straight ahead.
When the light changed, they sped off. And I was very relieved. WHEW!
If they had stepped out of the car, they would have seen me,
I don’t know about Monty, run like hell.
