When L&H ran things, they made more off vendor rentals in one week than the LP made all year as a seasonal establishment by close to 115%.

As of two years ago, the current vendor landlords could not keep up with the vendors demands for power, water and other items of need. Don't know if they have been able to figure it out.

Bike week makes more money for Weirs businesses, than you could believe. Whether it is vendor space rental or actual sales, it is a serious cash flow.
If things are going sooo well then why not dump some of those profits into that run down dump they call a drive-in.
Don’t get me wrong I like the drive in and I am glad it is here, but come on the place is a dump. A new bathroom would be a start; the existing ones are only a small step up from out houses.
It isn't like they are charging a couple of dollars to see the movie.
