Review & FAQ:
Knightstown is a small rural town known best as the filming location for the movie Hoosiers about a small town basketball team winning the state Championship.
The Hoosier Gym has now been transformed to a community center and museum and maintains the same look from the 1986 movie. Home to Jellystone Park, visitors can visit with Yogi Bear, rent cabins, or enjoy swimming pools, paddleboats and a playground.
Try panning for gold at Bonnieville Gold Camp within Jellystone Park. The downtown business district boasts historic American architecture, including a 1938 mural in the post office painted by Raymond L Morris.
