The sunsphere would have been better if Knox county would have listened to the contractors that built and laid out the Fair site My grandpa helped laying out the site he has a drawing of the sunsphere and what is suppose to look like 2x taller and the base is suppose to be Concrete and have shops in the bottom.O well Knoxville only pocketed 20$ after the worlds fair lol
OMG!!!! I remember being there. I remember riding the people mover. Seeing video of that, made me feel like I was there, re-living it. That was awesome. Thank you, God.
Nice footage, especially that couple with matching fluffy 1982 hairdo's. But that fair looked pretty boring and small, no wonder it failed to meet attendance and financial projections.
