Li'l Abner DogPatch USA Theme Park Arkansas

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. "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. Al Capp owned part of Dogpatch USA.

A statue of the local hero Confederate General Jubilation T. Cornpone was located at the park. Supposedly Gen. Cornpone was so incompetent that Union soldiers paid for the statue.
