Great place - has everything. Two floors of everything, actually. They have Christian items and tons of home decor that I didn't see in other souvenir shops.
6 million pieces of expensive souvenir crap that your kid will want. But the bears are so worth it - go during feeding time. You can throw stuff to them, but there are feeding ports downstairs.
Tons of anti-Obama stickers such as "Barry the Kenyan." I get it, the south is conservative, but for a place with Jesus Saves at the entrance it sure sends a non-Christian message.
This place is so big and so crowded. Lots to look at. Of course very touristy. The bathrooms were horrible. I didn’t like the enclosed bears either. It was eh.
This site says they close at 11... Got there at 8:40 and they turned us away saying they were closed. My 4 year old stood there at the door crying since we told him we would go right after dinner.
Get the food for the bears at the register when you pay for admission. Been there twice and they don't inform you that they actually have the food there.
