Gatlinburg Anakeesta Chair Lift Ride

Don't do it! The experience ended with my wife calling the police on an employee and a customer brandishing a firearm. Meanwhile we were hanging on the lift about 4 seats from landing watching the whole thing unfold. The police arrived in 1 min from every direction.

That was the grand finale.

We payed $80 for 2 adults and 2 little girls to go to the top and look at 3 shops and 90% unfinished shops.

We are going to the comedy barn tonight, I'm sure that's better.

Pap, you have about the worst luck of anybody I know. Do you ever have a good day?

They have a road that goes to the shops you know.

Take them gals to the Aquarium up there. It is surprisingly impressive.

If it gets worse, you can always go over to the fake moonshine place and get plastered on those samples.

From what we could see, the employee was being held back from another employee. There was also another employee holding the customer back. We were still in the lift coming down, almost down. There was screaming and cussing. When we got down the employee and customer were still having words and being restrained.

We skedadled to the parking lot and the police came. They asked what happen and we told them. Then another family came up to us/police and said the customer was showing his pistol in his waist band. They were getting ready to get on the ride when it went down in front of them. They ran too. Police ran to the chairlift.
