How I Built A $100 Drive-In Movie Theater To Hang Out With Friends While Social Distancing
By David Tracy
In an attempt to hang out with friends without risking the spread of coronavirus, I’ve built a drive-in movie theater in my backyard. Here’s how I did it.
Right now, Michigan’s strict Stay-At-Home order limits travel between households, so I can’t hang out with my friends—only virtually. But even after the governor’s order lifts, it’s likely that federal social distancing guidelines will remain in place for quite some time. When that happens, I want to find a way to hang out with my friends without spreading this awful virus.
I don’t want to be limited to active, outdoor activities, because sometimes it’s nice to just chill with people and do something that requires very little thought. Like watching a movie, for example. We could do that virtually, but to me, that’s lost its luster by now. Having folks over to watch inside my house wouldn’t really work, because I just don’t have the square footage or the screen size to allow us all to stay six feet apart. Plus, being in the same enclosed space isn’t great.
The ticket, then, is the drive-in movie theater—a relic of the past that, through a horrible tragedy, is getting its chance at redemption. I just built a drive-in at my house, and it is awesome. Here’s what I did to make it a reality.
