I still remember the television commercials and jingles for this event. “You’ve got to be there (pause) the 1982 (pause) World’s (pause) Fair (pause) You’ve got to be there!”
I also remember what a problem my parents had finding a hotel after we left the fair. I believe we drove almost all the way to Pigeon Forge. Great times for an eight year old!
You could do worse than Pigeon Forge. Did you at least get to visit Dollywood?
Hey, I was 8 years old when I went to that fair, too !
