Satellite Drive-In T-Shirt (Premium Lightweight)

The Satellite Drive-In in Thief River Falls, Minnesota, opened in 1952 as the 59 Hi, on U.S. 59, with room for 250 cars. It had taken the name Satellite by 1967. Its sign was a big white globe studded with short spikes on its own pole, next to a script banner with a spiky star at the tip. Church services were held on the roof of the concession stand.

It closed in 1986. A photo shows a crane truck taking the sign apart, with the marquee reading open 1952, closed 86. The Minnesota Historical Society now holds the marquee.
