The El Patio Drive-In in Cairo, Illinois, began as the Cairo Drive-In in June 1949, on U.S. 51 about a mile north of town. A postcard from its El Patio days shows a huge white screen tipped back like a sail, with two palm trees painted on it. Palms are not native to the southern tip of Illinois.

By March 1952 it was called the 51 Drive-In, after the highway, and that name stayed. A 1967 aerial shows it apparently still operating, and by 1982 it was closed. The land is now an open field.
