Let's face it, with the internet, and digital technology, companies are looking to advertise anyway they possibly can. If that means sponsorship banners on the outside fence then so be it. However, I don't think we have to panic just yet. I wouldn't call this a slow leak behind a big dam, but rather a simple shift in the river. Were almost in 2011, the economy is rough, Silver Dollar City is trying to pay a few bills, and there are companies out there who want our business. As long as they remember their limitations, I think everything will be okay.

I don't even know why you are discussing this; those banners that bthomas saw were for Run to the Lights.  They were the sponsors of the event and those banners were showing off their sponsorship.  I see it at every other marathon event.  

So you can seal up the leak in your dam, bthomas!

Advertising did exist in the 1880s.  As long as ads are appropriate, I'm OK.  I'd even welcome them if a creative, tongue in cheek approach is taken.  This would be a great idea for an andy Top Ten list...Top Ten Ways to Advertise 2010 Products and Services in the 1880s.

The ironic thing is, Silver Dollar City is jammed with ads all over the park! Granted, most of the ads are fake, and are simply a joke, or gag on 1880's culture, but they are still there. I think there are like over five ads just for the dentist alone!

Have you seen the teeth of hillbillies?  They need some dentistry.

Someone mentioned the coke American Plunge. I got to thinking... Which is always dangerous... but shouldn't they rename it the "Nestea Plunge"  I'm sorry, couldn't resist
