New Style, cost of 7 EELS: $49.99
Old (Classic) Style, cost of 7 Swans: $7000.00.
Okay, the cost of the eels. Well, those eels were in the Ripley’s Aquarium of the Smokies, and I figured your true love would want you to be able to see them all year, right? So the cost of an annual pass is $49.99 per person.
As for the swans, wow! Those are expensive! I found a pair of trumpeter swans at CM Game Bird Farm and Hatchery for $2,000 and thus I figured $1,000 each for 7 swans a swimming.
Today the Classic style is MUCH more expensive than the new style!
Total to date:
New Style – $2049.89
Classic Style – $8,585.74
That puts the cost of the old, or classic style, way ahead of the new now. But how will it all end? Wait and see!
