Dollywood Rules and Security

[Magiccarpetrides]

They do have armed security typically made up of off duty and retired police/military.  They also have sevier county on site too.  I would wager its one of the safer parks.

Could be. But anyone whom is hellbent on causing harm & mayhem can pretty much do so. There's no stopping some nut case, IMO. 

So party on, Garth!

I have been 3 or 4 times in the 40 plus years I have lived in the area of TN. If invited back I will go, but someone else will pay and get approval for me to carry.

I am going also In Dec please advise of. Tips your experience how crowded thanks 

Sorry I forgot to follow up. I had a small nearly one inch blade locking folder that had a ring on the back to give some purchase while using the knife.  A finger would not fit through there.  They wouldn’t allow it because of the ring !?!? On the rear of the knife.  Had to put it in the truck or toss it.  Ridiculous really.

A one inch blade and they had a problem ??  What did they think you were gonna do with it ?  Maybe attack one of their chipmunks or something ...sometimes people really take things over the top ...

If you remember correctly, on 9/11 they took over airplanes  with a box cutter.

 

Just stating facts, I think Dolly want a little overboard.
