Do NOT go to Gatlinburg while there is a Rod Run in Pigeon Forge
"We'll just run up there real quickly. There won't be a big crowd since its the Tennessee - Florida game." I couldn't have been more wrong! It too almost ten hours to "run" to Gatlinburg and back. All for a bottle of hot sauce. I love my brother and he better know it! He did end up getting four bottles of hot sauce so I can't say he wasn't excited once we got there.
I saw thousands of people sitting in camp chairs watching the traffic back up. Wow. Talk about having NOTHING to do on a Saturday. These people had so little to do, staring into traffic sounded like fun.
Oh well, at least I can say I have now been to a Rod Run. There were neat cars there, but it did not warrant sitting in the heat all day watching traffic. I wondered who else was accidentally caught in the mess or if we were the only ones.
We did get some killer hot sauce and it was interesting to people watch, so all was not lost. At least not until AFTER the Tennessee-Florida game.

Whats so hot about this hot sauce and avail only in PF?
ITs just a really good brand (Hula Girl Island Hot Sauce), and its not just available in PF (it was actually in Gatlinburg), its just that thats the nearest Hot Sauce store (Pepper Palace for those interested, www.pepperpalace.com). Most grocery stores carry only the Tabasco brands and a few other main stream brands. It has a recipe on the back that we had tried and it was really great. We thought about using a substitution of another variation of island sauce, but decided to go get the real thing. We didn't realize it would be a 10 hour trip!
