Just drove from nashville on i 24........the line on 24 is 16 miles long exited on 127 at 1 am got diverted to hwy 41 1:48 am now just got on brushy banch....sooooooo lucky feel soooo bad for those in that f#cked up line
I don't want to be a bummer for all those getting off on exit 117 onto the back road.. We were directed to that road last year and it took six hours and ended up in bfe.
I almost regret starting this thread. Was it a bad idea?
Ok for anyone who has had success coming in from the east (Nashville) what is your suggestion?? Last year I got off at exit 111 and it worked perfectly......is that exit closed??
Any advice would be appreciated, I'm about 40 miles out.

In Nashville about to head that way on 24. So 127 would be the best exit. We are coming from fort worth, all first timers and would love to avoid an extra 7 hours of car time if anybody has any advice.
In a (most likely) feeble attempt to avoid the clusterquack that is 24, we decided to take 41 in from Murfreesboro....I used to live in this area & know they drop you in relatively close proximity in manchester.
What I'm hoping does not happen is that they've got this road blocked off & routed onto 24 anyway...I'm about 20 miles out now & will report back as I get closer.
Thanks so much to everyone for the updates!!
Any word on the status of BFE? At this point, I don't care where I end up...as long as I'm in my tent & not watching the sunrise from my car in bumper to bumper!
Got in line on 24 @ 2:50 am est, mile marker 136. Didn't move for about 20 min. Ended up being a broken down car... got around that and moved up to about mile marker 127. After another 20 min or so, moved up to mile marker 121. Been in line just over an hour. Be patient... festival doesn't start for another 12 hours. Sorry to those who have been waiting but they will get us all in. I would rather be sitting on 24 than sitting at home!
Not traffic related but is it just me or are there A LOT of underage looking kids walking by, many with beer in hand on the side of the road. I'm thinking broo will regret scheduling the rap acts.
Wow man that sucks. It sounds like the bad lines are definitely coming from the south. Coming from the north we got straight through to exit 114 then hopped into line. Should be in in about 1hr or so if all goes well.
Update: came up 41, were directed straight into the line by police who are directing traffic - in line now but not moving. Seems like a good option for people coming in from Nashville for now...
I'm in Bell Buckle right now. Can't sleep and trying to plan my morning in an hour or so. I'm thinking maybe just hitting up 41 instead of getting on 24E. Let me know how the 41 route goes whenever you can. How far into the line are you being placed?
