Except this weekend lol

I know a retired HS teacher who taught Laura

One issue is weather; In this part of the US drive-ins really only work in summer. Would you want to sit in your car watching a movie this past week?

Otherwise:

• Real estate here is worth more than the business. The places where the most people are would be difficult to operate.
• Comfort. While I had a drive in close by growing up (Circle Drive In, Dickson City, PA) it's something we'd do once or twice a summer. Granted, we took my father's truck with a cap, so we'd back in, bring foam/carpet remnants to make a bed, and I'd rig up a multi speaker system with a DC adapter with my Walkman radio for decent sound. I couldn't enjoy a movie sitting in my car.
• Timing: You have to wait until it's dark to watch a movie, which usually means 21:00 in summer. The one by me would start at 20:30 but it was hard to see the movie for the first 20-30 mins. Sure, on a weekend you might get some more viewers but during the week you're losing all the people who can't be out late for whatever reason.

Honestly I think the one-off or weekly summer events at the beach or on a rooftop in various places around the state in summer are a better solution than a dedicated drive in.

Or if you go to arrivals, stay in the outer lane of parked cars and have the person come out to you.

Port Authority does this fun thing were they harass people literally mid-pickup to move along but don't say anything to the people with engines off and no passenger in sight

Weird, I've done lots of pickups and it's always been 50-60% full, probably because people still sit in the shoulders

I thought they were renovating/redesigning the whole thing. So that means not renewing leases which is why you see more and more empty stores, but still renting (I assume) temporary short term kiosk space until the main stores leases end?

> Cape May and all that is its own thing.

We once took a Physick Estate tour, our guide was an old lady. As far as she was concerned Cape May was the center of the world, Wildwood was North Jersey, and NYC was outer space

That one is on 195 too
