It's kind of sad watching them tear apart something that has been a part of my life for so long.

Arg, I knew this was coming and I still forgot to post notice about it.

I hope they post some highlights on Youtube eventually since I don't have cable.

Seems they could have still used this:


Here's a sign I will not miss (Was it supposed to be a joke?):

Except for a good reference to Outlaw Run, and some video on it....   I was disappointed on the show, LOL...

Not sure what I expected to see....  Have never seen it before.

What you saw is the same format as all the episodes.

I guess I missed the point of not only the episode, but the whole show - but that's fine.

So who else is having to restrain themselves from bidding on some of that stuff? The prices and shipping are exorbitant, but you can't exactly put a price on nostalgia. I think a reasonable amount of this stuff is going to end up in the possession of this board's members.  ;)

Stuff like the girl target really gets to me, because in my mind I can still hear the giggle sound effect being played over and over again and the hours I used to spend there. But on the other hand it's a rusted piece of crap that will immediately go into storage. I think the target is the only decent collectible, and I'm sure that will get driven up in price. Wish they had gotten more of them so we could all get one.

Where in the world would you put the "fountain" (as they call it) or the windmill or the barrel of toys?  On the other hand, that giant skillet is pretty usable for a restaurant somewhere.  They probably could have unloaded it right there in Branson instead of toting it back to the warehouse (unless they're really just storing it somewhere nearby).

fyi the giant skillet is fiberglass. It's to my understanding Bill Bailey is the one that made it. We were told last year that they were making a "sculpture" of GG items to unveil at the grand opening. THAT didn't happen...

^Sure it did, the Fireman Monument is made with a few smaller pieces of Geyser Gulch. It's small, and the GG pieces aren't obvious, but when you look at it closely you recognize it - and there's a plaque that mentions Geyser Gulch and Salvage Dawgs.
