The Hatfield & McCoy "Dinner Feud" in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee





SKP Acre Rally attendees
meet for the Hatfield &
McCoy Dinner Show er...
Feud in Pigeon Forge.








Chickens & Rabbits roam
the front yard.

Ma McCoy has been
 decorating.






Cousin Cletus greets
visitors.












Grumpy & Peg "set a spell"
 out by the drying laundry.












Ginny Hatfield & Eric McCoy
before the feudin' starts agin...



 Ooops....





Someone didn't close the
Out House Door.

It's a two seater; maybe he
wants company.













We are seated in the Hatfield
section of this 748 seat
dinner amphitheater.




McCoys say... You Might
Be A Hatfield If...

People Hear Your Truck
Long Before They See It










Dinner is served Family Style
in pots that are passed
around the table.






Ma is quite the cook!  The Fried Chick'n, Barbecue Pulled Pork, Southern Style Creamy Soup, Smashed Mashed Potatoes, Corn on the Cob, Homemade Bread and No Tellin' What's In It Coleslaw are dee-licous!  The Chocolate Pudding has bits of cake in it...  Yum!






We enjoy dinner as tonight's
feudin' starts.







There's lots of dancing...






... & lots of fighting.








Did you know that Pa Hatfield and Ma McCoy were in love all those years ago?

They were supposed to meet under the Elm Tree, but someone was sitting under
the Sycamore Tree instead.

With no girl to pitch woo with, Pa Hatfield went and stole the McCoy's pig.

There's been nothing but fussin' and feudin' ever since.....






Everything's a musical
instrument deep in 
the woods.











Smoke shows there's an
unfortunate Out House
incident.... 







The Winner of the Talent Show takes home $1,000.00.





Hatfields play their best
Country Music.








The McCoys play Rap Music
 with a Country rhythm.





This is a first down in the holler...

The Hatfields & the McCoys
win the talent show,
together.






To celebrate, the families make
 sweet music together.







And.... 51 years later, there's a wedding...






... & a joyous wedding
reception.







The Hatfields and McCoys will be feudin' no more, until....  the next time.
