Dollywood Discussion Thread

[HTF]

I'd hold off until Lightning Rod opens if anyone is planning to visit on a weekend. The crowds have been huge, lines have been long, etc...Lightning Rod should help crowd levels & wait times throughout the park once it opens.

 

I'll be there next Wednesday and Thursday for the first time in years. How have waits been during the week?

 

As for LR I'm keeping a very positive vibe about it opening next week

If it's not open by July all hope is lost haha.

 

Prepare to have all your hope lost!

How can you be tomorrow, and who is yesterday?

[Guy T. Koepp]

Not me guys. I have been home all day doing pre production work for the Monkee's 50th Anniversary tour.

 

I have witnesses.

No doubt it's the same guy who set the town on fire at Blazing Fury!

Let's just hope no cinnamon breads were hurt in the fire.

^ Now THAT would be the real tragedy.

Don't ever leave us, cinnamon bread.

^ Now THAT would be the real tragedy.

Holy carb heaven

If you've never had it, you'll never know the pleasure.

Alright, I'm gonna come clean about Cinnamon Bread.

 

It's delicious. It's really, really, REALLY damn delicious. However, it's also so delicious and wonderfully warm and fluffy that you can't help but devour it in thirty seconds. Once you see the empty plate you get depressed and them immediately buy another loaf. And then another. And another. Soon you're some blubbering, bloated loser crawling on the ground with stomach pain just outside of the bakery craving more but knowing you shouldn't have another because you might die. Park guests look at you and turn their children's heads away. Skinny guests look at you with pity. Fat guests look at you and have flashbacks to when they experienced the same pain, which then turns to more pity. Finally, finally you're able to relate to Crackhead Jim living in the dumpster down the alley behind your apartment building.

 

And then you get up. And you buy another loaf.

 

Cinnamon Bread destroys lives, people.

As a follow up from previous page, I would say the park today was crawling with Jr high kids everywhere. This being said my longest wait was 15 minutes for FireCHaser Express. Everything else was about 5 minutes but I did notice Thunderhead did get longer aft I rode with 1 train ops.

[DoinItForTheFame]

Well, I guess Dollywood realized they made a mistake and that LR is never going to open. . . Looks like they have started to dismantle the coaster.

A friend of mine who lives in Knoxville said she was in Pigeon Forge today and was at Friday's behind a couple DW workers and overheard them talking about a soft opening on Friday. So maybe #ItWillOpen

[slickpoetry]

Seems legit.
