Comment
The Dogpatch USA amusement park opened in 1968 and closed in 1993. The park was located near a town called Marble Falls in Arkansas. The park was based on the American "Li'l Abner" comic strip and it's characters.Several attempts have been made to reopen the park but has never happened.
"Li'l Abner" was written by Al Capp and ran from 1934 to 1977, appearing in many newspapers. It was about a clan of hillbillies living in the mountain village of Dogpatch, Arkansas, and was the basis for several films and television shows.
