Wow, where do I begin? Well, my wife, my son and I decided to go here for the first time to…read morecelebrate Father's Day weekend (Saturday night into Sunday morning, Father's Day) and watch the new Toy Story 5 movie. We rented one of the three campers on the grounds of the theatre in order to make the night extra special, as my this would be my son's first time camping. I call the owner of the theatre, who states that the camper would be $100 a night plus a $50 cleaning fee and that it would include the movie tickets. I thought, "Hey, not bad!" My family and I were looking forward to this outing all week! We got there at 7 p.m. the evening of the show and got checked into the camper. It was not clean as we had anticipated. The smell was horrendous, and I'm not trying to be crude when I say this, but it smelled of mold and strong odor of urine. The door handle is almost broken off of the door, so it didn't feel safe staying in there during the night, and someone could very easily break if off and come right in. After we got settled in, I decided to go to the concession stand to get everyone food. The inside of the concession stand had to be close to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, everyone in there, including the staff were sweating profusely. The line was wrapped around the building (which is to be expected during a newly released movie), but they had only one door open for everyone to enter and exit through, making the scene even more of a madhouse. They had another door they could've opened for people to exit, why not use it? I paid $45 for a hamburger with fries, two slices of pizza in a RaceTrac box (for some reason, did it come from the gas station??), a box of Skittles, four chicken fingers, a large popcorn and a funnel cake. The food for the large part was not good. The popcorn was actually stone cold! The pizza was also cold and stale and tasted weird. The funnel cake and the fries were actually decent as was the burger. The toppings for the burgers, however, were just sitting out in the heat and left uncovered in the middle of the crowd, which needless to say is a huge health hazard. I will say something positive, however, the kids running the stand were very nice and respectful, trying with all there might to get everyone served. All three of us ended up getting food poisoning that night unfortunately... The movie itself was good, but they should've started the show a few minutes later than they did (9:00 p.m. sharp), because you couldn't see the screen for the first several minutes of the movie, which felt like a ripoff! We enjoyed sitting out under the stars during the movie though, that was a very peaceful experience. My son enjoyed going to the park on the property, but where the park is located is pretty dangerous in my opinion, the kids have to bob and weave through traffic coming in and out of the theatre to get there. I was so afraid some kids were going to get hit. The playground equipment also left something to be desired. It was dirty and in desperate need of repair or replacement. The bathrooms were also pretty unclean. There were only two restrooms (that we saw), one for ladies and one for families. I can say that the family restroom ran out of paper towels and toilet paper pretty quickly and wasn't replenished. Trash had begun to pile up in all the cans without anyone trying to replace them. We stayed there until 1:00 a.m. that morning to only leave out to go home because none of us could bare the smell in the camper anymore! For an experience costing around $200 for the night, I'm sorry to say, I expected better Tiger Drive-In. I highly doubt we'll be revisiting unless some changes take place first or we're wowed next time if we do go back, and I hate to say that because I'm really rooting for the future of drive-ins, they're a dying out piece of Americana.
