Mayle Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I just heard that there will be a Cabela's built off the Tri Cities Crossing exit on 26 in Kingsport. Has anyone else heard this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mountainman Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 I sure do hope so. Did this info come fromk a reliable source, Mayle?? I dont care for their fishing selection, but 98% of my hunting gear comes from Cabela's. Id be giddy as love struck school boy if they opened up there.....thats less that 3 miles from my front door!!

You'd be broke too I really don't mind Cabelas, you just have to watch what you buy from them just like BPS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 Cabelas and Gander Mt both tried a couple yrs ago to open near Pigeon Forge but every time the door was closed by another chain.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiseguy909 Posted August 10, 2011 Report Share Posted August 10, 2011 A Cabela's would be nice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triton196 Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Its not mentioned here. A little marketing competition wouldn't hurt anything though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulletDeuce Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I'm in the construction biz, so I usually hear & see things before anyone else. This rumor was true maybe 5 years ago before the economy headed South-then it stalled. I have seen no plans or heard anything that would make me think they have decided to go forward. If I see/hear anything I will keep you guys posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 I hope they don't or I'll have to start paying sales tax on my Bargain Cave purchases! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charger Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Last I heard was a couple years ago when they decided to build in Knoxville on Clinton Hwy. They eventually changed their mind and said they decided to concentrate on the midwest market. Havent heard anything about Kingsport.

goinsfishin Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 its funny how many rumors about that place start. We had heard that they were supposed to build in clinton near the interstate behind fox toyota but they never did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJK Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Looking at the store location map, it's obvious they are missing a heavy concentration of fishermen and hunters in the southeast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was told this by Eric Kistner who is director of sales and marketing of The Edinburg Group who is building my house in the Rock Springs area. I wouldnt mind for a cabela's to be at the front door either, I guess we will see if its true or not.
