Love the show, like the food pretty good. But the prices!!? Outrageous! Don't get me wrong, I adore Dolly Parton. She does a lot for the town & county that she grew up in. I'm sure she donates to other charities that I don't even know about!! But I think she's forgotten what it's like to grow up poor in this area! I just feel there's an injustice when children from all over this country can come here to East TN. & spend days or even a whole week at Dollywood but the unfortunate poor children who call this area home, can't even afford the ticket for parking!! And yes, I know about the 1 or 2 days a year that Dollywood has an event called " Sevier County Day" when anyone who can show that they reside IN Sevier Co. can get in the Park at a DIScounted rate which, Miss Parton, is STILL TOO HIGH for a large majority of the children in this area!! I think Dolly has lost touch/reality or just needs all those billions of $$ in her pockets!! Do you really believe that really poor families & children don't exist in these days & times??! Look a little closer in these hills & hollers. There's plenty of them out there, but ONE place you WON'T find them is in your parks or theatres!! They might be allowed to work there some day.
