One source is a user-submitted review, one is a primary source, and one is IMDb. Absolutely no reliable sources found at all. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many otters • One bat • One hammer) 16:56, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
- The sources are weak right now, yes. But a quick google suggests that the claim of being a historic attraction are not complete BS. Why not give it some time to improve? Friday (talk) 17:02, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
:*Anything can be a "historic attraction" according to the locals, including the 50something-year-old Dairy Queen in my hometown. But I'm not even finding local coverage. It's just another fancy drive-in restaurant on the mother road, and searching News, Books, etc. turns up only directory listings.

::*Did you check the book Route 66: The Mother Road? It's mentioned in the article. The author's article claims it's a bestseller. If this drive-in got significant coverage in that book, that's a good source in my view. Of course, if the claim of coverage in that book is BS, that's another story.
