Updated Flyer with the class order
This will be a fast paced show. Drivers meeting @ 4:30 Line up starts @ 5 Pull will start @ 5:59 Two sleds will be in action with a backup on the grounds. There will be multiple camera crews @ the event filming. The pits will be open. We have plenty of room for haulers but we are gonna park everyone neatly & tight. Haulers will be able to park anytime after 5pm on the 12th. I do ask that all refreshments be in cups & I ask that everyone be professional. 3 armbands per puller. We don’t charge a stupid admission price ($10) There’s a lot of tailgating area at our facility & it will open @ 4pm. ($4 to park inside before the show starts) Our guys & gals are working their tails off to make this a great event. If there’s a pull question, please feel free to call & ask me anytime. 931-212-3602 All of the event updates will be posted on the Facebook page. [facebook.com] Edited 2 time(s).

Regardless if this is your first visit to Eagleville or if you support the event every year, we just wanted to illustrate the changes we have made in the flow of the event. The blue highlighted area will be Puller Parking. This will be the first entrance coming from the East. There will be an upper & lower parking lanes. (If you’re lucky, you’ll get a shade tree).
We ask that pullers be very considerate when parking haulers because we are gonna probably need all the space available. The other highlighted area will be the staging area. There will be two sets of scales set up on the horse show track, one on the East side & one on the West. Those pulling Wesley Simpson’s sled will use the West side scales. Justin Collier’s scales will be on the East. This will allow plenty of staging area after the scales for both sides. You may need to swing wide turning in off the highway & we are probably gonna extend the culvert a little further just to make sure Jon Hancock can land his yacht. Event Address is: 747 Chapel Hill Pike Eagleville, TN 37060 If you get lost, just stop & ask anyone within a 20mi radius where is the “Eagleville Tractor Grounds” ....chances are, they’ll know. |

I drove 3 hours sat in line for an hour and a half and likely another hour or more wait to get in...I turned around and went home. I got out of line at 7pm CT and a friend in line behind me got in. The pull started at 6pm and if the Eagleville police and Rutherford Co. Sheriff started turning people away I understand.
Here is a LINK to video of the backed up traffic. The total line to get in, from each direction was likely over 3 miles long. Am I upset? Yes...upset at myself for not leaving my house sooner. This pull should clearly show how thirsty people are for pulling and an opportunity to get out and about. No one, and I mean no one knew the crowd would be like that, but now we know and the question is: will other events get this kind of response and should they be prepared? My hat is off to the TVPPA crew for handling the event as they did. They are by and large a group of younger pullers who have a heart for the sport; we need more young people like them to step up and keep this sport alive for years to come. Bryan Lively -
