Opryland

[brachphotos]

An Update from Opryland - The remains of the Grizzly River Rampage have now been removed to make way for a building to host the ICE show.

only went there once before it closed down via road trip. it almost made that drive from gulfport, MS and Memphis, TN worth waiting for. bring it back!

wow!! great video..I loved opryland and screamin delta demon was my fav along with chaos..

[TWMAN454]

Thank you for posting this. I spent many a happy day there as a kid, and was saddened when my mom told me it was closing. Maybe now that the crappy mall's been flooded out, Let's hope Opryland might live again.

Damn you Gaylord entertainment. All you care about is your stupid hotel. You tore down a perfectly good theme park to build a generic cookie cutter mall, which you don't even own anymore. You got rid of the Nashville Network, which the new owner promply changed the format and name to "Spike" and dropped country music. You owned CMT which you also sold. You sold WSM FM, away from WSM 650, and the ratings have dropped for WSM AM 650. Sell it to someone who cares and rebuild opryland.

I was a child then and know im an adult and i wanna go and th emall was closed. surved the mall right! Know tear it down and Build a amusement park. if there is nothing left to build!!!!!!!

[xoxsarahsaurus]

If it weren't for this place, I wouldn't exist. <3

My parents met here. :P

[001GenLee]

I agree, bring Opryland back! Sounds like alot of you are mad about what Gaylord Entertainment did with Opryland, like us fans are mad about what Burroghs & Chapin did with the Myrtle Beach Pavilion arcade building & Amusement park in Myrtle Beach, SC. I wish the good 'ol days would make a HUGE comeback & blow the sh!tty 2000's out of the door!!! LOL

[kyangelusa39]

@001GenLee I totally agree with you, Bring back the Oldies, I miss OPRYLAND...

[almamatters2471]

lovin' the Flock of Seagulls music...great vid.

[redguy222]

I was never fortunate enough to get there when the park was open- but was there recently for business, but you can see parts of the rapid ride trough still there. Really sad- looked like a beautiful park. Funny mall not that crowded either... go figure.

[jholttn]

Thank you Gaylord Entertainment for tearing down what Nashville only had one of to build something that Nashville already had 9 of... DUMB ASSES I hope your mall rots....

[andrewsutherland2002]

@jholttn It has. At least flooded. They get what they deserved for tearing this great park down.

[cbowman61]

[davidarchuletafan21]

R.I.P Opryland.

[firenmagic]

What's this song called???

[cynthiapendley]

space age love song, by flock of seagulls. search youtube, several vids of it.

[jbw9999]

Any way you can slow the video down to normal speed?

[goo83]

over 10 years gone now. it feels like I spent every day of my summers there when I was a a kid. shutting down this theme park still, to this day, tops the long list of GAYlord's biggest mistakes.

[mmdude7]

why did Opryland close down?

[dickkirkland]

Wow, thanks.

I've always wondered what the real thing looked like. I went to Nashville a while back and all that was left was a small part of the log flume.

[ThrillhunterDotCom]

Awesome video

[Jamita1]

I posted this on Myspace, I loved it sooo much!  It made me cry. It brought back so many fond memories that I finally drew I didn't dream that Opryland was really here!

Thanks for the memories~

[dieselducy]

what a damn shame. another MALL!

[Hammytl]

~sad~ I cried......

Great park. Those planes developed my fear of flying. When dad and I went up I closed my eyes and nearly screamed from the vertigo.

[intardis]

Thanks for that shanehuish, good choice

[intardis]

thanks for putting this on, shame its all now just a carpark and another shopping mall.

could you tell me what the song is?

[shanehuish]

The song is "Space Age Love Song" by Flock of Seagulls.

[jbw9999]

Its a live version.
