On Sunday, Dollywood Theme Park experienced crazy floods due to volatile weather in Eastern Tennessee. Guests were seen wading through waist high water and mud to escape the park
Believe it or not, this didn't stop the park from opening yesterday after sustaining five inches of flash flooding the day before. Dollywood can take a licking, but it'll keep on ticking.

"Taste of Country" recently asked a great question to their fans on Instagram. "If Country music had its own Olympics, what would the events be?"

Here are some of the best responses:

1. Beer Chugging. If you can't shotgun a beer or chug a beer super-fast, how would you expect to place on the podium at the Country Music Olympics? Luke Combs would definitely be the front runner for gold.


2. Line Dancing / Square Dancing. Sawdust on the floor is mandatory.

3. Beer Can Smashing. After you chug the beer, whoever can smash their cans the flattest wins.

4. The Note-Holding Contest. Hold a high note, as long as you can. Depending on how drunk you are from earlier rounds, this could be quite a show.

5. Banjo String Breaking.

Some people might consider this gross . . . but others will recognize its BRILLIANCE: Ore-Ida, the frozen potato company, worked with "GoodPop" to create a new, limited-edition "Fudge n' Vanilla French Fry Pop."

It's frozen vanilla oat milk . . . covered in a chocolate fudge shell and rolled in crispy potato bits. It's supposed to taste like dipping a fry into a milkshake.

The mashup is available for nationwide shipping from GoodPop's online store. Each box costs $9.99. The first run has already sold out, but they say to keep checking back every day.

Bring it on !
