History

Tennessee Waltz opened at Opryland USA in 1977. It was located in the State Fair Area.^[1]

The ride was bought by Premier Parks as part of a 13 ride package deal of Opryland USA's attractions in November 1997 after the park's closure on December 31, 1997 for $7,034,000 and was later relocated to the site of Old Indiana Fun-n-Water Park in Thorntown, Indiana, USA. The ride sat in storage for several years and was assumedly ultimately scrapped by 2003 after Six Flags sold the land in July 2002.^[2]^[3]^[4]
