My takeaway... the actors and people associated with the movies truly enjoyed meeting the fans. Thank you DB for taking us along.

Absolutely loved everything the man did camp is by far my favorite

A great adventure. Thanks for sharing

Thank you for sharing this great event. I loved Jim.❤

Fun day thank you for bringing us along

I always enjoyed Ernest movies. Glad you enjoyed the event.

Love this, seeing the tribute to such a great entertainer and a wonderful human being. Thanks for taking us along for the ride! 🍻

Thank you so much for taking us to see this. Ernest was a staple viewing when I was growing up!

Nicely done, great looking state park.

I loved Ernest movies. My children loved Ernest movies. My grandchildren love Ernest movies. Looks like fun.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks so much 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Oh my gosh, I am a huge Jim Varney fan! My dad was, as well, and could do a spot-on imitation of the Ernest character. He always dressed (and acted) as Ernest P. Worl at Halloween every year. I really miss that and your post has brought back some sweet memories. I might have to attend this event next year!

Now, THAT was a great Daddy-Daughter trip. Good on you for bringing this event to the attention of those who never knew about it.

He was a hoot! Sure do miss him. Thank you for bringing this!

Great video! He is a true legend. Thanks for sharing 😊

Awesome! Brought back some great memories of watching the movies as a kid!

That's delightfully nerdy. I'd forgotten those movies, which is sad because I loved Ernest. Thanks for sharing this, I'm going to try to go next year. It looked like fun.

Beautiful filmed and highly entertaining video.

I grew up watching all of Jim Varney's movies and I adore him as an actor! Definitely miss him. Thank you for sharing. Adding another thing to my bucket list haha

DBA I grew up watching Ernest movies with my grandpa and Dad, what a great adventure to have.

I like the Ernest movies, don´t know how popular they are over here in Europe, but I watched a lot of them over the years and they were fun to watch, the actor seemed like he was a good guy. Lovely place, a lot of green and water, reminds me of my hometown, I grew up near a river and small lakes.

Nice video DBA, thanks for taking us along. JT

Like the change of pace videos. Thanks.

Some of my favorite childhood memories. You know what I mean Vern?

Thank you so very much for this deparure from the madness of everyday. Brother, your content keeps getting more diverse, and intertaining as you go along. Jim Varney was a National Hero who was loved by all. I have a brother that still to this day says " know what I mean Vern" . Love It. Father/Daughter time was refreshing to see, all else fades, but Family is forever. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

Thanks for the great video! I had no idea this event existed! Such a beautiful location. I kept expecting to see his runaway utility cart driving itself around in the background.

One of my favorite movies growing up. You did us all proud casually talking to the VIP folks and reintroducing us to all the parts we remember.

I love Tennessee. I used to live in Chattanooga and Nashville. Back in ole Virginia now.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane...I loved the ernest movies when I was a kid. nice vest btw😂

I only saw maybe part of one of his movies but I remember his commercials were on a lot of comedy shows back in the 80's

I was there, had a blast

I sure enjoyed all of his movies

I'm taking my 3 girls next year! They love Ernest!

COOL PLACE DBA, THANKS FOR SHARING......Z

This video triggered a bunch of memories for me. I went to a one week summer camp at Montgomery Bell in 1986 and it doesn't look like much has changed in the camp area. But I never realized the movie was filmed there. Thanks for the information about this event. I will have to write myself a reminder to try to attend it next year. Also, I would have never guessed that we are the same age as you look at least a decade younger than me.

Great video Jim Varney rocked

i got my kids in to the movies they love them

I ❤ Ernest.

Getting lil girl as cultured as big sis! Way to go, Mom and Dad.

That was very cool 😎

good times there

Do you have to sign up or pay for tickets?
