Awesome Video!! We had so much fun hanging out with you two.....looking forward to more adventures and one day after one of us hits the lottery we can go back here and afford a wristband lol

We had so much fun with you two! You're literally the best.....great video!

41:36 - This is false, the storytown sections remain there today in 2024. Alice in wonderland, the storytown train, the storytown swan boats, the story town cars, and the desperado plunge are all still operating daily and there is NO plan on closing any of them. The town was rearranged a bit and moved closer to ghost-town which is also still open and operating. The whale is still there. The castle with the princess is still there. The shoe house (the old lady who lived in the shoe) is still there, and they have story reading for kids 3 times a day. While yes, this park was purchased by Six Flags it is being well maintained and preserved as a local family park.

It's like living inside a Residents video for 5 minutes

This is a great attraction. A lot of fun. That balcony overlooking the street is the "high" point of the experience (pun intended). The comforting feel of fireproof cement walls all around for safety. The IB train goes thru this building and has some animated characters, so do not miss them. Peace

Thanks for posting. With the news of this place closing in October it’s to have a record of what it was like.

hey dude remember that place enchanted castle well, there animatronic band is actually back up and working so if you wanna go back and see them you can you have to ask a employee to request a show

Great footage. Very surreal and David Lynch like.

As a proud Zonie, I'm desperately waiting for Defuntland to do this one. We desperately need to bring back Legend City to the Valley of the Sun!

I fondly recall Gas Light Village in Lake George at night time in August. The smell of the food, the bright lights of the amusement rides, and crisp night-time air as summer was inching on the calender making way for fall and back to school. Kids today, no interests other then tech.

Anyone else remember a trip to Storytown USA before it became the Great Escape? Almost every vehicle left the park with a Storytown USA bumper sticker stuck on their bumper lol. Soon after at some point the sicker wasn't stuck on but instead wired on lol. Charles R Wood, what a great guy for the region. Wealthy yes but 💯 % community guy for the people.

Wildwood has two - TWO - haunted houses now. Dante’s Dungeon and Ignus Fatuus. They have a boat ride - The Pirates of Wildwood. In the early 80s, each pier had like two of them!

I didn't care about Shrek 4D, but Villain Con is such a waste of space. It looks so dang boring and unimersive. It's definitely a ride used to balance out wait times and keep the kids interested in the IP. That's the only reasons it exists.

I’m going to Florida August 10

As a Junior at ASU, 1969, I heard that U-Haul bought Legend City from the Japanese so they could reopen it. I right away went over and signed up for a summer job…and because I was the 1st one, they hired me to write the script for the “River of Legends” ride but also the “Dutchman’s Mine” experience. It seems that during the purchase from the prior owners, all the “live” scripts had vanished! As it turned out, as “Sgt. Abel of the River Scout” I spent the summer taking boatloads of families around and around that river. I’ll never forget it.

This is so great!!! Thanks for doing this !!!!!❤

Awesome!! I went to Roosevelt Elementary in Mesa and remember going to the wax museum in either (this impresses me) Mr Stewart's 5th grade class or Mr Berman's 6th grade class. I have soo many awesome memories of Legend City as a little kid and a young teenager. Those were good times...

You definitely did Gatlinburg right. 👍🏻

Recently got to go on Earthquake: The Ride for the first time and it was so much more fun than I expected! Love a good (or so bad it's good) solo dark ride.

The penis opener and penis sheathe made me laugh when I saw them 😂😂😂

The Circus Golf looks really neat! Crockett's have really huge pancakes & I agree that they have a better breakfast than Flapjacks.

this is the same model they have at the EX in Ontario

I live less than an hour from there.

Not bad

Playland is one beautiful nostalgic amusement park in a gorgeous setting. I love taking my family & relatives there when visiting NYC.

More ghost train ride funfair and more ghost train ride funfair Simon l 19th July 2024 until 31st July 2024

🤩 Kooky Kastle was my favorite ride as a kid. It was a great ride! They also had a walk through haunted house. I think the Congo Cruise/Bermuda Triangle chute the chutes was also a Bill Tracy creation. It was mostly a narrow dark tunnel with the occasional show scene, except for the lift and drop at the end.

Loving the videos. I gotta check out Showmen's Museum.. Looks amazing! Ever been to the PT Barnum museum yet in CT? I wanted to go when I was in CT a couple years ago but it was closed for refurbishment... looks like it's still closed today.

3:24 Why is merky from rainbow brite in with the rocky and bullwinklle stuff? Oops.

@1:52 playing the original fire in the hole theme song. 😂

Had the chance to visit this place back in 2019- super cool! Have you guys ever been to Solomon's Castle? It's also in Florida!

What is the name of this song

P

Ahhhhhhh

I wasn’t sure where I rode this as a kid and have been looking for a video of it forever. Thank you ! It was at Clark’s !

Every few years I like to go to Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg for vacation. The last time I was there I went into that three bears shop & I think there was 2 bears in that habitat. I haven't been on a mountain coaster yet, but next time I want to try it. Cool video!

Bro I live here in Tennessee, Even though there is a lot of bears it’s really good here in Gatlinburg

Playland is gorgeous ! I’ve been going there since I was 5 years old . The buildings are from the Art-Deco period in the early 1920’s . Because of those buildings Playland was established as an Historical Landmark . I haven’t been to Playland since I moved to the west coast but I’m planning to get back there in 2024 ! This park has seen a lot of changes over the years . Some good some bad . They removed a lot of the classic rides that made Playland great . I keep mentioning this in my posts hoping that management will take notice and Listen to my feedback . Here are some Rides that Playland should consider bringing back … The Roc-o-Planes , Over the Top, The Spider , the Flying Scooters , The Turtle Chase . They also had an in-ground pool with dolphins . The original Monster Mouse . Should also bring back the original Trains on the Dragon Coaster !

There used to be 4 other mini golf courses. The fort had one there used to be one behind the one restaurant that serves pasta and spaghetti they had one in their parking lot and behind and then at the corner of Ontario Canada Street across from the arcade that used to be minigolf on the roof of the building and then down the street a little ways there used to be an indoor mini

I'd rather be a drunk Boomer biker than some limp wristed, low testosterone soy boy who sleeps with a purple haired pig !! Have a nice day !

The video is great I turn down the volume and it’s enjoyable.

There was never a train going thru the tunnel to the ghost town. You are mistaken. A lot of the little houses came from the land of makebelieve. And not every little house is not a school house. And not all the houses have been these since the 40’s the park was open in the late 50’s and there was no ghost town then.

This was awesome!!!

Legend City, the zoo and the wax museum, were all right there close together and they were fun places to visit. Phoenix was a great place to grow up in the 60's thru the early 80's. I moved to northern Arizona in the mid-80's and I really hate the valley now. It was bad enough when all the Yellow Fronts closed down, but once Metro Center was phased out it is like the place will never be the same.

🎶He fought like a bear and he bit like a crocodile. 🎶

It was Gatlinburg in mid July, And I'd just hit town and my throat was dry, and I thought I'd stop and have myself a brew! Where my J.C. fans at? Ain't talkin Jesus Christ!

We all want to see. He's just a scared

Saw 2 kinds of bear ursus and human.

It's not uncommon at all, actually.
