Is this the most retro place on Route 66?

from Only in OKlahoma Show

Today we are discussing The Tee Pee Drive-In in Sapulpa, Oklahoma. Enjoy a nostalgic, family-friendly experience when parking your car and watching an outdoor movie at Sapulpa's Tee Pee Drive-In. Originally built in 1949, the theatre provided old-fashioned fun for over 50 years before its closure in 1999. With new ownership and extensive renovations, the Tee Pee reopened to the public in April 2023 as a full drive-in with concessions, a playground and on-site Spartan trailers that can be rented out for overnight stays. During your next Route 66 road trip, just look for the giant neon sign as your guide to the big screen. Billed as the "Heart of Historic Route 66," Sapulpa hosts visitors from across the globe. Oklahoma's bustling downtown area draws in plenty of travelers seeking out Mother Road adventures. Sapulpa's history is steeped in a lively mix of Native American soul – the town is named after Chief Sapulpa, a Lower Creek Indian from Alabama – and the early days of oil. While exploring Sapulpa, see 1920s automobiles inside the 1922 Waite Phillips Filling Station Museum, located just one block off Route 66. During your visit, be sure to enjoy natural beauty found at Pretty Water Lake, featuring trout fishing opportunities and the half-mile Pretty Trail.  Also discussed Friends of Nicoma Park, Heritage Farm and Ranch, Redbone Indian Tacos, Medicine Park & Frankoma Pottery.
