Anyone Live in Chattanooga/Northwest Georgia Area?

About 30 years ago, I was on a family trip. We were heading north towards Chattanooga and got two flat tires, so we were stranded at an exit in Georgia, maybe three or four exits from the Tennesee line (near the huge mansion that you can see from the interstate).

My questions is, the exit we were stranded at was some kind of freakshow museum/vintage arcade. It had stuffed two headed calfs and other freakshow memorabilia. Is this place still open?

Been here 30 years and never heard of such a place.

Sounds like something you'd find over in the Lookout Mountain section of Tennessee.

There is an old time amusement park near the border. Lake Winnepasaukah Home [Lake Winnie] Went a few years ago but no freak sideshow. Just vintage and new rides.

There is a head mount of a 2 headed calf born in Georgia. It is at the State Capitol Building in Atlanta.

I would like to move back to North Georgia. Are the properties there cheap compared to Atlanta?

Trying to remember where the stuff for Ripley's Believe It Or Not is at in Tennessee.

This place is the most memorable thing from that trip. We went to Gatlinburg that year, but that freakshow sticks in my memory. I remember the arcade games were either a nickel or a dime.

The building was like an old Stuckey's or something. It was right on the interstate, somewhere south of Lookout Mountain.

I have been going through those exits most of the last 18 years and have not seen anything.
