    In the 1970"s many people worked at The Magnavox television factory in Greeneville Tn. Their activities club made a deal for discounted tickets to The Land of Oz. Since it's a short day trip to North Carolina it was very popular. This gave the 3000 or so workers a nice place to spend a Saturday or Sunday, and insured good attendance all summer.😎
    I was around 10 then but I do remember everything was new, clean and brightly painted.
    Seems like back then there was always somewhere to go and things to do.
    Today many people seem rushed unhappy, 😡 and unfriendly. 😤

      The monkeys sort of scared me when I was little (am 56 now). But what REALLY scared me was the Abominable in Rudolph (his roar and that one scene when he climbs over those jagged mountain tops). Makes me shiver even now thinking about it.

    • @mattford6848

      Alyssa Vermette Because it would cost to replace everything that was destroyed or stolen over the years so there's no point just be glad it's open at all when it is.
