Just to let you know if your coming to Piegon Forge this week end... Sept...12, 13, and 14 to shop...eat....etc.  That there will be TRAFFIC....... and if you dont like car shows ya might just want to pass up exit 407.

If you do need to get to pigeon forge go through Townsend you won't hit traffic till your less than a half mile from the strip. If you come from the interstate you will hit traffic shortly after you exit all the way through Sevierville

I am originally from Sevierville, spent 30 years up there.  Have lived down in Monroe county now for 15 years, and no regrets!  I am 55 mins from my house to downtown Sevierville!  I do not miss the traffic, tourists, traffic, tourists, traffic, tourists, and did I mention that I do not miss traffic, tourists!

There was a rod run a couple week ago too.  Traffic was heavy everywhere.

That area has terrible traffic without a car show.

If you are on I40, you will hit a traffic back up well before you get to exit 407. Usually it will back a mile or two before you get there.

This will be the first year living in East TN that I will not be working in Pigeon Forge for a car show... I will not miss it.

I think the only time traffic is "normal" here would be Jan-Feb. Not many tourists. The construction should be done by next June.

This just in, a gun show is in Knoxville this weekend, I wonder if the roads will be clogged, and bumper to bumper traffic in Ktown?

 

I wish something like the famous Shotshow came to Pigeon Forge, for like a week.  I bet the forge could pack in people for that show like a car show does.

I would love to go, but my bel air is without a heart right now.

They had a preppers convention at the Sevierville convention center not too long ago. There's plenty of room for a good sized gun show there or in the new one in Pigeon Forge. I'm hoping that it happens, from what I read, the trip to Knoxville wouldn't be worth the effort. I might brave the traffic for a gun show, a car show, not so much.

I would love to see a large NRA event, Shot Show, or a 1500+ table event in Sevierville.  That would be cool!

I did FedEx Ground in PF for a couple of years ... since I'm not an auto nut, I wouldn't drive down there on a Car Day for less than three or four bills now, either!
