No, this something that is being done by Dollywood and has nothing to do with the contest we are currently running.

I can't wait to ride Wild Eagle. I am hopefully going to Dollywood this next summer, I was just wondering when the best time to go is? Like which month would be the best to go to Dollywood?

There really isn't a "bad" time to go to Dollywood. I would avoid Saturdays and Holiday weekends.

A word to the wise for anyone planning to visit during the Smoky Mountain Christmas event. Driving conditions in Pigeon Forge during the day on weekends between Thanskgiving and Christmas are pure congestion.

Actually, the main Parkway expansion project from Boyds Creek Highway to downtown Sevierville where one would turn off to go on Dolly Parton Parkway to get to Veterans Boulevard (the back highway to Dollywood) is about to be completed... 4 lanes in each direction. Traffic should be a non-issue in the coming weeks.
The opinions expressed by me are my own and may not necessarily represent those of The Dollywood Company.

Does Jeff Johnson count this donkey as a credit?

I'm hoping to make the trek up from Georgia in March or April. Really looking forward to seeing (and riding) this thing in person.

That sounds like an amazingly awesome creepy thing to do. I approve. ;)


Jeff Johnson would be proud to have such a shrine.


Actually, I find it kind of creepy too, in an intriguing way. :p

And, for the record - ONE credit.

I know Jeff Johnson, and he would never say this. The real Jeff Johnson counts every seat on every train as a different credit. I have even heard him exclaim that after a ride is rehabbed or relocated, each seat counts as an entirely new credit. I have heard he has at times counted rides as seperate credits after a shift change, as the staffing can create an entirely new ride experience. So my question to you all is, who kidnapped Jeff and hijacked his computer?
