This is day 2 post Dixie Stampede and am still sick as are my husband and niece. The show was okay but the food was horrible. Way overpriced. We feel like we were fleeced by the best con men. The food was hot but inedible, they used the same seasoning salt on all the food. We used the doggie bags provided and tried to feed it to the crows but they had more respect for their digestive tracts and refused it so it will end up in the landfill. I love Dolly Parton but she should be ashamed to put her name on this. I will never go to Dollywood after this experience and not only will not return but will actively discourage others from going. If we could get our money back, I would have more respect for this business.

Visited here while on a visit to the Smokies recently. Â This was my second visit, came on my honeymoon 10 years ago and brought the kids back this time along with the in-laws. Â The show has not really changed, but we did have a good time. Â It is expensive, but we had already decided that this was the one show we were going to do.
There were 13 of us in all. Â I think each section of tables (they are in long rows) seats about 14, so we called early and made sure we got reservations for all of us. Â Â
Both the preview show and dinner show were entertaining.
Only drawback for me was that the main show was too loud for one of the 6 year olds. Â She kept her ears covered the whole time, this proved rather awkward with no silverware, but we made it work. Â If I had thought about it, I would have brought ear plugs for her, then she could have ate. Â A little boy in front of us had some and he seemed to enjoy it just fine.
GREAT bluegrass music in the saloon before the show - I would rather have listened to them all night and forget the rest of the show. Decent horse action. Some of the races were goofy. The food was very average - anyone calling this food excellent hasn't been to a top restaurant. WHY no silverware - stupid idea.  WAY over-priced. They try to get your money at every turn - photos, plastic drinks with juice for $5, required to  exit through the Gift Shop. Overall decent but too much money.
Review Source:There are some really good reviews already on here. I will just add that their comments are spot on. Â We went because our daughter wanted to go. Â We were surprised that we enjoyed it as much as she did. Â Good family fun. Do not think we will go back as its $50 a person (we got discounted tickets for $40) but we do think it was worth the one time experience.
Review Source:Hubs and I were dragged here with the rest of our group thinking it was going to be a lame show, and horrible food. Â TOTAL surprise!!
Well worth the cost of a ticket!!!
Soup and biscuts are awesome!! Â Everything else is great too! Â Food was HOT, served fast, and very tasty.
There was plently of entertainment. Â Before the "main" show there was some great blue grass music. Â Then once we were seated in the main theater there were wagon races and other stuff. Â
I was going in expecting to hate every minute of it, but ended up loving it!
I know you can get tickets at a discounted rate at a few spots (Pigeon Forge Visitors Center) too!
My husband and I attended the 6pm show. Luckily we arrived very early. Tickets were sold out by 5:30pm. We enjoyed the preshow. The main event was okay. We didn't like the fact that horses were jumping through hoops of fire. A few of the horses in particular had longer tails. I cringed each time those horses jumped through the fire. Other than that, the show did keep our interest. My husband wants to return. I could take it or leave it. I do not think however that the price of the show was worth it, especially with regard to the food. For about $50. a person (we got a military discount so it was $5 cheaper), they give you a whole cornish hen, a SLICE of pork roast, a small bowl of creamed soup, a small biscuit, 1/4 Â of a wedge from a whole potato, a small piece of corn, and an apple turnover for dessert. The quality of the food was good, the service was good, the food was hot, but the portions were small. I think if we had paid $15 or $20 a person, I would have enjoyed this show much more. The performers were good, the animals and kids cute. I just feel like it wasn't worth the price they were asking. Maybe you will enjoy it more than I did.
Review Source:We went on Jan 1 to see Dixie Stampede. Â I was expecting a horse show with trick riding and some horse races, not lumber jacks, chicken races, toilet seat throwing, and the like. Â I'm not from the South, but live in Atlanta and grew up with my grandmother having a farm that we were at every weekend. I am not sure what makes these things funny or fun. Â Maybe if you're a 5 year old boy, but to me this was not a good time.
The best part of the night was the Bluegrass music before the show. Â I wish I could have listened to the guys play a lot longer and skip the Stampede show.
The food was okay, but not kid friendly. Â It requires parents to pick their children's chicken before eating their own and eating cold food. Â Not sure why these places insist on not giving silverware. Â With germs on our hands, I was not comfortable with this, and I am no germaphobe. At least give people something to wash hands off with before eating. Â
It's nearly impossible for you to use the restroom once you are seated, so make sure you go before you sit down to eat. Â
I was hoping for more horse riding, tricks and races and not chicken races, toilet seat throwing, lumberjacks, magic, and a dowse of Christianity because it was a Christmas show. Â Wish that we would have saved our money.
This place is just what it says it is. It was a good show, good food and great service. The price is on par for anything as of this caliber. It isn't fair to say they overcharge people. Prices are clearly marked. The food was good, nothing fancy. Â I'm glad we took our 3 yr old and 4 month old there and the 3 year old enjoyed himself
Review Source:This is a GREAT dinner show! This is the dinner show, you will want to bring the kids too. And it is Mmmmm Good!
Guests will be put on either a North or South side of the dinning theatre/hall. Each side has components that play crazy games, to win the championship of the night.
Beautiful horses, amazing food, and a special video appearance by Dolly! How can you go wrong?
This is not just your average country music show. But a full fledged dinner spectacular. And one you will want to make travel plans for.
The show also changed to a Christmas Show (done in the same style) for the Christmas Season.
Let me start off by saying, buy your tickets elsewhere...you can get them for a discounted price. We stopped at the Pigeon Forge visitor center and bought the tickets there for at least $7 less with no tax than the price on their website.
Anyways...they tell you to get there one hour before the show so that you can file into a room to listen to some bluegrass music while tempted to buy drinks and snacks..Don't give in! Oh even before that, you're waiting in line to get your picture taken so that you can buy it later for $25+...I noticed all through the night that they're really good at selling you extra things while there. The show was alright..a little cheesy, but some good mountain music nonetheless. Then you file right upstairs into the arena. Be sure to get upstairs to the red curtains since seating is first come first serve in your row.
I must give props to the waiters and waitresses that work here. They're able to keep track of their line of customers drink orders, and are able to keep on top of things. They serve everything one at a time while holding a big tray of food and walking down the line. It was very impressive. The food was really good and filling! A whole broasted little chicken which was perfectly smoked and seasoned, the pork loin was a little dry, the soup and the biscuit was really tasty and the potato and pie! I recommend getting the iced tea! Really good with the meal! They also provide doggy bags so don't feel the need to finish your whole meal. Be sure to leave them a good tip!
As for the show...horse races, barrel races, pig races, chicken chases, lumberjack races, etc...it was alright, funny but very cheesy. It's all in all very kid friendly. There's a lot of stomping, clapping, cheering, etc. I had the privilege of sitting next to this little boy from North Carolina who was very very excited to be there for the second time. There's really a little for every type of person out there. You should at least check it out if you're in the area or planning on going there!
All I can is outstanding dinner show! Â The performance was top notch. We got free tickets from someone and I loved it. The food was good. the cream of veggie soup was amazing, and the chicken was nice. Â Eating with my hands was a fun experience. Overall I loved it. I wish the seating wasn't as tight but other than that great job Dolly!
Review Source:Dixie... Stampede...
Not sure what those two things have in common. It was a stampede for my friends and I to get out of the place.
The best part was at the end when we were corralled through a hallway and plastered above was Dolly with her giant acrylic red nails.
I also loved the exploitation of American patriotic undercurrents.
Everything else made me wish I was more drunk. I am sorry I made my friends go.
If you are a blue state person... I do not think you will like this show. It is probably on par with something you slept through at your local county fair.
I got dizzy with the pace of everything, the food, the show. The servers are a constant reminder that it'll all be over soon. You leave feeling completely empty inside, like you helped destroy a rainforest of baby monkeys.
It's all a bit hazy, I'm going to throw up now.
Great place to take kids to enjoy the show but if they are picky eaters, they may leave hungry. Â Meal includes corn soup, biscuit, whole (small) chicken, pork loin, corn on the cob, half of a baked potatoe and apply fritter for dessert. Â The food is good and hot and served quickly one piece after another. Â The best is apple dessert.
The show is great for everyone and is very enjoyable.
Been the last three years in a row and will go back again whenever we are in Pigior Forge!
This Place is an excellent example of a good Ol' Southern "Supper" . The Show is Great and is produced in a totally Dust free environment so if you have asthma or an aversion to dirt in your food you won't have a problem. Â The show is comprised of several horse tricks and has a north verses south theme that caters to the redneck in all of us! The have other creatures in the show as well and they do revamp the show each year, so it does change. They even offer some crowd participation. This is a super family friendly place so every one from birth to the grave will have a great time as long as they Don't mind loud noise and Eating with their fingers because Dixie Stampede Does not offer silverware. The Dinner you will Receive is as follows:
Creamy Vegetable soup & A Garlic/Cheddar Biscuit, A Whole Cornish Hen, A Piece Seasoned Pork, Potatoes,Corn & An Apple Turnover for Desert. They offer Tea, Coffee and Pepsi Products to Drink. They do have a veterinarian offering for dinner though I have never tried it. This Place is not for you if you can't endure at least to hours of good Ol' Southern hospitality,Some Country music,Eating with Your Hands,and some of Those Awful Forced Pictures tourist traps insist upon. I loved It Personally and I have never taken a kid here that didn't love it. Be open to the Cliche' and have a Freakin Blast!
This is absolutely one of the most horrifying spectacles I have seen in my life.
I went with my family when we were vacationing in Gatlinburg, and they had bought tickets to the Dixie Stampede before we arrived. I have come to expect to do (and actually usually DO enjoy) touristy activities with my family. For instance, when in Key West, go to Margaritaville; when in New Orleans, go the amateur drunk route and have a hurricane at Pat O'Brien's.
But this. THIS. Is the single worst experience I have ever seen money spent on. I in fact think the proprietors of the event should pay for their customers to sit through this spectacle. Below is just a summary of some of the problems with the Dixie Stampede since I don't have all day:
1: IN THE SPIRIT OF THE SHOW, IT SEEMS, YOU ARE PACKED LIKE CHICKENS IN A CAGE FROM START TO FINISH. That's right. Once you walk through the doors and have your photo taken (which they will try to sell to you during the show), you are shown into a large room with tables packed together closer than an overcrowded middle school lunchroom. There is a raised platform in the middle where three clearly failed musicians try to rouse the crowd and play hokey folk show tunes and zany bluegrass reinterpretations of Michael Jackson and Ozzy songs. They try to distract you from your new existence as a sucker who paid way too much money for what is not only not a GOOD or even just okay time but is very much a BAD time.
Then they release you and about 800 of your new pals into a fire hazard situation where everyone is trying to squeeze upstairs to sit in the arena. There you will sit uncomfortably close to your neighbor--there are two plates set out for what SHOULD be one place, but think about how much more money they are making by making you much less comfortable--and you will have a small choice of nonalcoholic beverages. If you are taller than 5'3", you will bump your knees on the bottom of the table in front of you.
2: IF YOU ARE NOT A WHITE CONSERVATIVE, YOU WILL SURE AS SHOOTIN' BE OFFENDED BY SOMETHING. If you are reading this critically, it might be easy to write me off as "a damn hippie" or someone "with no sense of humor," but I'm not really either of these. But I think the Dixie Stampede offers the kind of history lesson that was propounded by Frederick Jackson Turner in the late 19th century and has been dispelled ever since for its, you know, lack of inclusion of Native Americans as human beings. In the show they dance and release white doves, and Andrew Jackson never makes an appearance to illustrate how whites pushed them further and further west to make a "peaceful, pure land." Also, slaves never make an appearance at all, and the program pits one side of the audience against the other as 'North' and 'South.' Women are all of them dainty belles, and the stupid guy (surprisingly, they don't name him 'Cleetus') is white and southern. So rather than dispel any myths about southern stupidity and nonwhites as 'the other,' the Dixie Stampede rather revels in the myth--for your entertainment! Thanks for the money, right, Dolly?!
3. YOU EAT WITH YOUR HANDS, AND THE FOOD IS NOT EVEN THAT GOOD. The meal starts with gruel that you have to slop from a plastic soup bowl. Rather than tell you it's so they can save money on utensils and more dish washing, they tell you it's the authentic experience of.... what? The South? The Barn? Couldn't quite figure this one out. Anyway, the server comes by with tongs and a big bin, and he/she quickly dishes out throughout the arena 800 chickens, 800 pieces of corn on the cob, 800 cheese biscuits, 800 slices of ham, and 800 apple turnovers. You will eat these with your hands, which quickly become gross and waterlogged, and then you will be looking at a greasy plate of chicken bones and greasy gruel, and you will have plenty of time to become disgusted with yourself before the server comes to remove your plate. And you will not once think to yourself "Wow, that was a great meal!"
4. THE PRICE OF ADMISSION DOES NOT INCLUDE ALL THE JUNK VENDORS WILL TRY TO SELL YOU THROUGHOUT THE SHOW. You will be forced to sit for a photo, someone will (twice) try to sell you a souvenir flag, someone will try to sell you the photo of you taken earlier, you will be asked to tip your server, you will exit the arena through the gift shop, and you will be shouted at to buy a t-shirt.
But then, luckily, you will be LEAVING, which is the best part of the show.
I will return to Gatlinburg, and I will likely take my children there. But for goodness sake, next time I will do more research about the things to do there. I am frankly disturbed that there are so few negative reviews of the Dixie Stampede. I know it is popular, but here's proof if there was ever proof that the bandwagon is not necessarily a good place to be.
AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
I enjoyed the Dixie Stampede, its a fun concept and a fun atmosphere. The food was pretty good and plenty of it! The show was fun and entertaining! My only complaint would be that while trying to watch the show and eat you have the server walking by, a person selling flags, another person selling photos, then the server again, then the photo person again...it distracts from the show. But it was a good time anyway!
Review Source:It was actually pretty fun! Â I went a few years ago with a tour group and thought that it would be cheesy because of the name (Dixie? Â Stampede? Â Indoors?)
I walked in and heard the country music blaring from the place. Â The restrooms had a horse stable sort of feel to it (it was very clean).
When the show began, they started serving the dinner. Â The soup came first, the pork loin came second, and when the "whole rotisserie chicken" came, the server joked saying that it was a pigeon because we were in Pigeon Forge (they were actually cornish game hens). Â Unfortunately, some of the gals didn't figure that it was a joke and didn't eat it thinking that it was actually a pigeon! Â The baked potato, corn on the cob, and the biscuit came last. Â The portions weren't awesome, but some people couldn't finish. Â They only had four options for non-alcoholic drinks... Water, Pepsi, Tea, and coffee, all with free refills. Â As for a dessert, the dessert of the day was apple pie.
The thing that I didn't like as much was that we all ate in the dark. Â There were literally no lights except the ones pointed at the stage. Â The waitresses must have had night vision goggles on!
At the end of the show, Dolly Parton sang the national anthem (it was a recording, not the actual Dolly) and we all left happy and full.
To sum it up, DINNER AND A CIRCUS!
It was quite expensive, and a very fun show, but I probably won't go back again.
As will all things Tennessee expectations are key. We expected totally cheesy Americana horse show and we was not disappointed. It is very hard to rate this because the food was as good as it can be given that the Dixie Stampede serves something like a 1000 people a show and does so almost at the same time. Given that volume having food that is warm is a victory. However taken by itself the food is extremely average.
The show is likely great for kids, the under-educated and the blissfully ignorant. God Bless Dolly Parton for not letting anything stand in her way...not gravity, age, taste, animal rights folks, or historians. It costs a small fortune but everyone should experience this slice of Americana once in their life. When you go marvel in the fact that all that corny country fits into that building and your show was likely sold out.
I have a theory about hospitality management. You shouldn't mix things. Here they mix comedy, Southern revisionist history, horses, buffalo, magic, 'dinner', theater and Dolly Parton. Just two of those things would be enough. All of them together is like eating your entire Halloween candy bag at one siting. You might need to throw up.
Was a cool experience, I would have to say it was a 1 time experience though. Â The show was somewhat entertaining and the food was good with large portions. Â
The only drawback I saw was that the show could have been more entertaining. Â It could have been more of a show and little less just dragging fans down for contest.
Hated this from the moment it began. Â You are corraled into a big stadium with dust flying from the stampeding animals in the arena. Â To add to the old time authenticity, you have to eat your meat and potatoes meal with your fingers - no silverware offered. Â Not to mention that any show that has offers the potential for the south to win the civil war is inherently flawed.
Review Source:This place was fun. Â I was a bit skeptical as it is very touristy (what place isn't in Pigeon Forge). Â But I am a fan of Dolly Parton and she is the owner of this establishment. Â While she doesn't appear in person, she does comment and sing a few songs via video/recording and that is a welcomed addition to the entertainment. Â
With Horse riding tricks and flying doves, not to mention decent grub (and lots of it) this is a great place for families and singles.
Hands down the best show in Pigeon Forge. Great theatratics, fireworks, Horses, Awesome Food. One good thing is that they mix it up here at this show unlike the majority of the shows in town, so no worries of sitting through 2 hours of some kid on a stage going country crazy :( I found a site that sells discount dixie tickets without sitting through some time share, <a href="/redir?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.dixiestampede-tickets.com&s=1b6a6ff967f71d63d84d7a11fcff02d4abd725e5fc6b6400b055ac0c9608045d" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.dixiestampede…</a> well worth it, we picked up our tickets at Dixie Stampede's Gate and saved a fourtune! See you next year!
Review Source:I think it was around 1990 when I first visited. Â Adult tickets were $25 at the time and I thought it was outrageous. Â I didn't want to go, but everyone else in my party wanted to go. Â I thought, "Okay--I'll go just this once, but never again." Â Well... I've been about 6 or 7 times now. Â It cost much more today, but I feel it is worth the price.
It's a good 3 hours of entertainment if you count the pre-show. Â The show is full of country music, comedy, and competitions that are rodeo-style and also not-so-rodeo-style. Â Honestly, I'm not a fan of any of that on it's own, but it's one heck of a show.
The food is not the best, but it's good. Â It's mass produced several times daily, so don't expect the fine linens to come out. Â You'll have no silverware. Â It's well known that you'll eat your fixins here with nothin' but hands. Â Most of the servers are very funny. Â If your server is not that funny, you'll still enjoy the show. Â Your food is delivered assembly-line style. Â I enjoyed watching the food delivery as much as the show!
Out of 5 trips to Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge, I will visited Dixie Stampede 2 or 3 times. Â Some of the routines in the show never change, so you may become a little tired of it if you visit too much. Â It's a definite "must do" if you haven't been before. Â Though, if you are a first time visitor to this touristy area, this will take a chunk out of you day--you may not want to invest that much time if you are only in down for a couple of days.
Tip: Â Don't buy the souviner boot mug. Â They will try to sell it to you when you make reservations (rsvp is a must) or during the pre-show. Â Just skip it. Â You'll save a few bucks. Â I see these mugs at thrift stores all over the country for 25 cents. Â If you buy one, rest assured, it'll probably end up in a thrift store like all the rest.
Dolly Parton is one crazy chick - crazy enough to create a cheesy dinner show like the Dixie.
They give you a lot of food, and it's an extremely casual environment. Very family friendly. This isn't my cup of tea at all, and if my mother didn't force me to go, I gladly would have eaten at a goddamn McDonald's instead.
However, I am also a healthy food addict and spend most of my time watching Sportscenter, not Walker Texas Ranger.
Yes it's corny, yes it's overpriced, but hey, if that's what you like, be my guest. I personally wouldn't come here again, but I can name many foodloving showwatchin' Americans that would.
I was actually super excited to go here. Â I had been to the one in Orlando and LOVED it in all its cheesy glory, but it was shut down soon after... so when my boyfriend and I headed to TN, I pretty much forced him to accompany me to the Stampede.
In Orlando, the pre-show was much better... this singing cowboy and his horse wearing Christmas lights from head to toe. Â This one was cute/talented enough (an old-timey country band with a female singer) but not as fun or unique.
The food at Dixie Stampede is not very good at all, but not horrible... kinda like cafeteria food, I guess (minus any silverware). Â I think parts of it grossed me out, but there was enough edible stuff to soothe the savage beast within.
However, the beast came out when my waiter decided to trick me! Â I told him how excited I was to see the ostrich race, which was my ULTIMATE favorite part of the Orlando show, and truthfully, the main reason I decided to come back for a second viewing. Â He told me they "didn't do it anymore," thus breaking my heart into a million. little. pieces. and making me quite grumpy for most of the show.
Of course, he was lying. Â So when the girls came out riding ostriches right before the end of the show, I was all, "WTF, waiter?!" Â I was so annoyed that I couldn't even enjoy the ostrich race. Â (By the way, it really is cool. Â They have girls literally sitting on these ostriches and riding them around the stadium). Â But I did not appreciate how he ruined my good time...
All in all: I guess the Stampede is worth a visit. Â The food isn't great and the service is spotty, but the show is pretty high-quality for a "cheesy dinner show." Â Truly some talented performers (human and animal alike) and a great program with a nice blend of comedy and sappy stuff.
Food was ok, but I got a medal.
Horseshoe Champion
I never really win anything, especially sports events. I chalk up my lack of athletic success to the effects of gravity on a 250 pound frame. Chances are you'll never see me in an advertisement for Nike involving hang time unless they take into account the waistline of my jeans. That being said, it wasn't always this way... I clearly remember winning the three legged race in First Grade, but I was sharing the glory with Jonathan, a soon to be athlete with skills. Skills that included dragging my butt across the finish line.
Everything changed for me at the Dixie Stampede dinner and show in Pigeon Forge, TN. After picking on our server, Kevin (quite possibly the nicest guy in three states), he chose this moment in time to change my life. Kevin asked me to come out and be part of the "competition" between the North and the South. After questioning him about my proximity to horses, buffalo, and mules, he assured me that there would only be a couple of jackasses out there.
We were to play horseshoes... at least that's what Kevin said. So, just off "stage" I meet the competition, a nice man from Illinois who informs me that we're not playing horseshoes in a conventional sense of the game. Instead, we're going to be using standard commercial toilet seats for horseshoes. Needless to say, I see that I've been HAD. Kevin, the former nicest guy in three states, has just cost himself a big tip. I was looking forward to telling my boys about how I practiced all the time when I was younger, just so I could win this... and how hard work always pays off. I'll get you Kevin.*
The first throw from my opponent was off to his right, but dead even with the post. My first attempt was thrown "just a little long", say about 12 feet. After taking my criticism from the Master of Ceremonies, I knew I was ready. My opponent decided to put a touch more on his next one and threw it long, but both of his attempts combined didn't add up to the space between my first throw.
Then came my next attempt... Dave Meggyesy, a former NFLer says, "The zone is the essence of the athletic experience and those moments of going beyond yourself are the underlying allure of sport."
In slow motion, the "horseshoe" left my hand. It had the same feel about it, it was definitely going to be going long. I don't really know what happened immediately after, but it was a dead ringer. The crowd went wild, and I did my best to find my wife and kids in the stands to give them a thumbs up. I would have run a victory lap, but like I said earlier, I weigh 250 pounds and I don't like running. The final throw from my opponent was a half-hearted attempt, he knew he'd been beaten. I tossed the last one, much like the first... long and to the right, but it didn't matter. The South was victorious.
For my trouble, I got a small medal and the adoration of my new fans. My wife was rolling her eyes as I did my best to be humble and shrug off my newfound greatness with the disclaimer, "I know my way around the toilet seat."
We'll see who rolls their eyes when I wear that medal to bed tonight.
*Kevin inadvertently made me a "champion" in the eyes of my children... he got his tip. No servers we're harmed in the production of this article.
My husband and I went here on our anniversary trip. Â We went here on our actual anniversary, and I wish that we hadn't. Â The food was awful! Â Milky soup with no flavor besides milk and bell pepper, tough pork, flavorless tough potatoes, the list goes on. Â The show was ehhhhh. Â The inside of the arena really does smell strange- like mold or mildew. Â For the price paid, I wish that we had ordered pizza back at our cabin. Â I am writing this review because I read tons that said it was fun and worth it- not for us. Â We enjoyed the comedy show down the road a lot more!
Review Source:We went last night my mom dad sister her hubby and my 2 lil nephews and we had the best time!! Â The staff was super friendly our waiter was 1 of the best we have had he was so friendly.. The show is amazing it was very entertaining and keeps your interest through the whole show.... Â Â The food was surprisingly good and very filling they give tons of food and the soup is so good.. Â We all had a very good time I highly recommend this place for good food and great entertainment....
Review Source:As a first time visitor, I would say yeah go ahead and check out the place. Do this only if you're a tourist. That's exactly what I did. If you have been to Medieval Times or Arabian Nights, the food and style of show is pretty much more the same. Eat with your hands while somebody zooms by to give you each entree. I was there for Christmas so it was the whole North Pole and South Pole Santa Theme. The North won when I was there. The redneck character (part of the show) was pretty funny. Kinda wish I could have seen more of him. During the Christmas show they also Incorporated some ice skating. Gotta admit this show was one of the better ones. But....(of course) they only had Pepsi and the southern sweet or unsweet tea. I don't drink either but I would have settled for some sprite at least. I ended up having water. Oh by the way, if you need a vegetarian meal call ahead. Poor mom got suck eating corn and biscuits.
Review Source:Another spot wrought with unintentional comedy value...
I went here YEARS ago, but, like many ideas in the South, I am quite sure the concept hasn't changed. Â Go here for a look into Deep South culture. Â Not only do they sell the experience dining concept a la Medeival Times, but they have an awesome Southern twist to it where the North and South compete against one another. Â Guess which side invariably wins? Â :)
I havent been here in over 10 years but from what I recall was a fun family outing. Dinner and a show. The theatrical part of the evening was the south vs the north. They would split the audience up into two groups and one side represented the south and other the north. Dinner wasnt so bad either.
