Instead of settling for the usual overpriced-multiplex movie experience, why not travel back to a much simpler time and get more for your money in the process? Head to Amarillo's Tascosa Drive-In Theater. The retro-style venue touts itself as the home of the double feature, meaning that you'll get two big movies for a great price. Blockbuster movies, a comfortable seat (in your car, of course) and a great concession selection all make the Tascosa Drive-In Theater a classic tradition that's worth revisiting.
