    Question Pigeon Forge?

    Is Pigeon Forge just a redneck Disneyworld? I'm going on a short roadtrip to Tn. and wanted to get some info on places to visit. Pigeon Forge is the first thing that came to mind..lol. The south has nothing worth seeing.

    Pigeon Forge is fun if you are into video games, putt putt, go carts etc... they also have some nice attractions in Gatlinburg (which is next door) nice aquarium, riplys believe it or not, haunted house, etc... there are some good resturants/shopping too.

    yeah go to Gatlinburg, but i would go to the Nascar Cafe in Pigeon Forge, even if you are not a fan, it has great food and very cold beer.

    I'd like to visit the aquarium in Choo-Choo. I don't think I'd enjoy the NASCAR Cafe since I'll be wearing my "Non Athletic Sport Centered Around Rednecks" shirt..lol. That Ripley's Museum actually sucks. I went to the one in Arlington, Texas and it was horrible. It was $20 to get in and the tour took 20 minutes..lol. Are there any natural attractions? I'm gonna take me some Ansel Adams styles pics.

    Default pidgeon forge

    I would go to cades cove and the other one that is the other way cant remember. Bring some comfortable shoes though.

    We went to the aquarium this one was better than the tennesse aquarium in chatanooga.

    We went on our honeymoon and spent most of the time in gatlinburg not pidgeon forge. We spent maybe a couple of hours in pidgeon forge.

    I'd like to get up there and visit Dollywood. I have seen a program that showed parts of their birds of prey show. Eagles, hawks etc. I want to get some pictures of the Eagle with some of the raptors.
