About me: Hello, I'm the 1982 World's Fair. I took place in Knoxville from May 1st-October 31st in summer of 1982. I certainly left my mark in my short time around downtown. I brought nations from all over the world to raise hell in Knoxville for 6 months or so. Some hated me, some loved me, but they all knew I was around. Anyway, since it's been 25 years since then and I know so many people, I thought I'd join this myspace thing to see what happens. I'm also selling my t-shirts and such at West Towne Mall over the holidays. (OK...I'm a sell out, but so what?!? Proceeds are going to the East Tennessee Historical Society. If you want to give me props, just put your best memories of me in the comments. I love you all very much.
Here are some home videos of myself for your pleasure.
Also, Check out the .. store at www.1982worldsfair.com More items to come. WoooHoo! Proceeds from here will benifit the ETHS as well as the mall store....
I created my own profile using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM and you should too!

Well it's hard to believe it's been 26 years ago since the fair took place at Knoxville. I went to this fair aprox. 20-25 times. I had a season pass. I was 16 years old in 1982, as of 2008, I am now 42. I was at Knoxville on July, 2008. I went to the top of the Sunsphere to the observation deck. I remember doing that in 1982 at the fair. Check my profile out, all in public view. I would like to meet some former fair goers.
Oh and by the way, My Daddy's company roofed the Sun Sphere. William F. Martin Co. Both my Daddy and Brother Halden Martin were up there. It brings a tear to my eye, every time I see it.
Aloha From Holly Martin-Baker!! I worked in The Union Carbide exhibit, demonstrating battery powered toys! I miss all of you whom I had so much with!! XOXO Holly
1982 was my Sr. year at UT. Worked at The Fish Market waiting tables. Made tons of $$$$ and spent most of it next door at Ruby Tuesday's where some friends worked. Now my oldest is a Jr. at Ut. Talk about a blast from the past!!!
