PIGEON FORGE - An attempt to break the world's record for largest group hug on Saturday may have technically failed, but participants walked away feeling warm and fuzzy anyway.
Taking place in the parking lot of Boyds Bear Country, 149 Cates Lane, the attempt needed at least 5,118 participants to hug each other 10 seconds to succeed. Almost 2,000 had registered shortly before the attempt took place.
The failure to set a record did not bother Charles and Carol LeClair, who did some hugging of their own during the event."
