Happy Times at the Fiesta

Where's the speaker? At left is the Fiesta Drive-in of Pico Rivera.
Stop by for your choice of 4 movies (or 8 if you count the double feature)!
If you stop by the swap-meet before-hand, watch out for the birds!
The drive-in movie theatre scene has been reduced at an alarming rate
in Los Angeles County and now there are just three. Well wait... actually
two. With the demise of the Fiesta 4 drive-in in Pico Rivera, just the
Vineland and Azusa Foothill survive, albeit tenuously.
The former "Whittier Drive-in" ran headlong into a bulldozer
the 1st of August. So when you cruise Whittier Boulevard at night from
East L.A. to Pico, don't look out the window for the familiar movie lights
on the open air screen. The lights are now left to flicker in memory.
