Attended every year at Chillahowee park plus the year before in Pigeon Forge. Went to the first one after the move and was very disappointed. If I want to sit in a Parking lot I will do that at a local show. Chillihowee Park was nice with grassy areas and nice amenities. Also the "all Ford" is a joke. I have pictures of Dodges and Chevys at the Pigeon Forge Show. I believe the Dodge even won a Trophy.

I went last year and then a couple years before that when it was still in Knoxville. Personally I liked the show alot better when it was in Knoxville, well there was a lot more stuff there anyway. The show in Pigeon Forge was nice, but honestly unless you just want to take a vacation(there is tons to do in Pigeon Forge and the areas around it I wouldn't fly from anywhere to come to it. Honestly you'd probably be let down if you drove three+ hours to get there.

Doc's statement is very accurate. The last few years Pat Ford owned the F100 Supernationals the attendance was dropping way off as NumberDummy experienced. The last year the show was held in Knoxville I believe there were only around 400 or so trucks that showed up. Given the fact that there were over 700 trucks last year, I think that the show is improving. So, the move from Knoxville back to Pigeon Forge was a good move. I agree that there probably is a better location than a big parking lot, but have heard rumors that Mr. Cobble is working on something much better.
