Thread Name: Arkansas Traveler Skit
Subject: RE: Arkansas Traveler Skit
While not a reference to Arkansas Traveler, the jokes are just as corney and there is a lot more of them find a copy of the book "Slow Train Through Arkansas". One sample: Passenger is complaining about the slow speed of the train. Conductor says, "Why don't you get off and walk". Passenger says: "I would but no one is expecting me until the train gets in the station."

Back to the Arkansas Traveler, the Arkansas Traveler Theater in Hardy, Arkansas has be reopened and presents the skit and more in a two hour show. If there are any diehards out there who find themselves in north Arkansas, I am sure you would be welcome.

Here is a link to what the Encyclopedia of Arkansas has to say about the Arkansas Traveler:
