I think drive-thru speed dating is an idea whose time has come; you can have a brief chat and form your opinion of someone based on what kind of car they drive, all in one fell swoop. Plus, it will give a whole new meaning to the term "speed bumps".
There's a drive-in church about a mile from my apartment - its setup looks pretty much the same as in the linked blog. I've never seen it in action on a Sunday - I have no idea how many people actually show up. I can't imagine the appeal of it.
Hey, The Climax, that's right down route 22 from where I live. I've driven past hundreds of times but never driven through. It's not just the drive-thru, there's a BYOB stripper bar there too. It's very funny that there are more stripper bars out in the farmland here than in the big bad city of Pittsburgh.
Taz, in Pennsylvania, if a bar serves alcohol they get regulated by the LCB who says that strippers have to wear pasties and g-strings. BYOB bars don't have such restrictions.
There's a drive-thru funeral home across the river from us. It used to be a bank. People got used to the idea of a drive-thru wake surprisingly quickly.
I remember a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away (Southern California) that there used to be drive-thru convenience stores.
In Langley, BC there's a pub named The Artful Dodger that has a drive-thru beer and wine store. It also had a little corral out front to park ..er.. hitch your horse. And yes, I saw horses tied up several times. We lived about five minutes from the pub, and no, although we intended to go there for some pub-grub we never did.
