I go to Holiday World every year, it really is amazing! I've never been to any other theme park, but I have a feeling I'd be disappointed by anything other than Holiday World.
The tickets for this place are rather expensive for what they offer so none of it is really free. You are just paying extra for it with the ticket price.
@@callmemarc to be fair they do have world-class wooden Roller Coasters. The kids seemed very happy. 50$ admission is a tad high. a trip to the fair could cost more if you don't car pool this has better rides.
My son met you and got a selfie at Holiday World. You made his day! We both love watching your videos. His birthday is on the 14th and I think you made his a good one. Safe Travels my friend
The fact that they give away sun screen, soda, and free parking, gets people returning again and again. Very kid friendly with a lot of those rides too. Great business model they have going. I would enjoy a nice fun day at that park and I'm 68. Well done Jacob and Holiday World! 🤘🤘🤘
Whoever worked on the theming, the ride sign, the queue design, and the overall decoration of Good Gravy! needs to be promoted, hired by Busch Gardens, Six Flags, Cedar Fair--I don't know who, but for a ride of this smaller scale to have THIS level of creativity and immersion is not common at all and I'm here for it!
Fun fact; they did a test run of Good Gravy with giant turkey plushies in the seats. You'll probably have seen these turkey plushies in most of the park games as top prize.
I was very impressed with the theming of the Good Gravy line. It invoked memories of Thanksgiving spent at my grandparents, or my cousin's, or at home. It made me very nostalgic. If anyone from the park is watching this, my hat's off to you. Incredibly well done. And free soda too!
The original antique cars were definitely one of my favorite attractions at Kings Island. Its definitely meant to give kids the freedom to drive cars and I'm here for it! 👍❤️
It looked like a pleasant park 👍 hopefully they will continue to attract vary large annual crowds to the park , so people 50 years from now can enjoy being young at heart ❤️
When my Aunt Shirley moved to Tell City , Indiana and when we visited her she took us to Santa Claus Land back then, remember having a good time, thanks for the video 😊
AWESOME! I met u that day but didnt want to disturb u too much. We watch u everyday. I have planned many trips from ure vlogs. It means alot to us that u do this. That area also has many caves. Marengo, Wyandotte, Squire boone. U will be hard pressed to find a prettier cave then Marengo. I am so happy we met u. Thank you!
Hello Jacob I love your new camera. I don't understand why people are complaining about the audio it sounds perfectly fine to me. I understand every word you say.
Jacob, you’re very trusting setting your camera down and leaving it. I would be concerned someone would steal it or not notice it, walk by and accidentally kick it.
The theming of Good Gravy! reminds me of that meme, where one panel is what people think the 80s were like (loud day-glo colors etc), and the other panel is what the 80s were really like (wood paneling). The 60s were before my time, and I wonder what the average household looked like back then, vs. our stylized memory of it
How Clean, Vibrantly Colored and Impeccably Detailed everything in this park seems to be. All the attractions you showed in this video look brand new. Whomever owns this park seems to really LOVE what they are doing and are offering a phenomenal Theme Park experience to families. Much Praise to them!
I love holiday world 🥰 Make sure you come back the first week of October for the fall festival in Evansville,IN. It’s the biggest festival after Mardi Gras
We visited yesterday too and got a selfie with carpetbagger it was a super fun day and the good gravy ride was super smooth I even rode some rides that I’ve been too scared to ride for years all in all a great Mother’s Day for my mom and an awesome experience for my dad and I getting to meet carpetbagger!
I rode The Voyage back in in 2022 and I did not care for it seemed too rough even rougher than the Beast at Kings Island before the retracking. I love that turkey themed dark ride.
Putting on the Bluetooth mic while the camera tracks you to a face hole is the perfect use for it, although leaving the camera alone to ride the tiny roller coaster gave me anxiety about the chance for somebody to steal your new camera. Free sunscreen and free soda are amazing! Also, I don't have kids, but that park looked perfectly suited for small children, with plenty of rides they could enjoy. It seems like most theme parks just have one small section for kids and design the park around teens and adults.
This place does look fun!! The theming was well thought out and without being “too much” it’s cute & creative. I love going through the family home for Good Gravy.
Camera is working well here. Putting it down and having it track you while you walked to the photo op was seamless. You’re probably not after more camera feedback but I thought it worthwhile that I noticed and it was good.
I have to absolutely applaud Holiday World on creativity in theming. I feel like most theme parks that aren't directly tied to some kind of movie IP always default to being themed around either genres of fiction (fantasy, adventure, western, etc) or some kind of region of the world or some combination of both. Disney did the former before its IP library got strong, Busch Gardens did the latter. But Holiday World is just like "Nah, we're doing holidays". Particularly big props for a roller coaster that evokes Thanksgiving dinner in general and gravy in specific.
I never been to Holiday World in Indiana, I'm in Louisville Kentucky I grew up in the 80s and 90s going to Kentucky Kingdom were they would have the state Fair later in August but you go anytime to Kentucky Kingdom. I'm 48 now just had a birthday May 6th. Thanks for sharing this Jacob 🤓📸 your awesome 👍
I absolutely enjoy your videos brother...i havent got thru all your older videos but i will...this makes me think of my late mother she loved Christmas more than any human being ive ever known..she always wanted to go to Santa Land in NC but we never got to go..do you know if its still going? Lots o love to you n yours from your Southeast Tennessee neighbor
If anyone is wondering what the coasters here they are. Good gravy: first custom vekoma junior boomerang, good ride Thunder bird: b&m launched wing coaster, pretty good ride. Howler:just a zamperla gravity coaster. The legend: focused on laterals, great cci coaster. The raven: focused on hills and turns, again great cci The voyage: focused on airtime, anything you could want on a coaster, top tier, best ride in the park.
Thank You so much for sharing your adventures. I had so much fun watching you. I have watched about 4 or 5 so far. I cannot wait to watch more. Take care.
Your daughter is very smart! ❤️ Great idea about the sunscreen! She needs to find a way to market her idea!! Because you know a place like Disneyland, is not going to have free sunscreen.
Free parking, free sunscreen, and free soft drinks? Amazing.
I go to Holiday World every year, it really is amazing! I've never been to any other theme park, but I have a feeling I'd be disappointed by anything other than Holiday World.
And Disney only charges two arns, two legs and your first born. 😂
@@goofyrulez7914 Very true, but to be fair, the quality of the attractions is better than a coaster going through an empty gravy can.
The tickets for this place are rather expensive for what they offer so none of it is really free. You are just paying extra for it with the ticket price.

Happy Birthday! It was great meeting you
That's a fantastic birthday present
Never thought I’d see a gravy themed coaster, but there it is! 😂
And I never thought I would love a gravy themed roller coaster, but here we are lol.
The fact that they give away sun screen, soda, and free parking, gets people returning again and again. Very kid friendly with a lot of those rides too. Great business model they have going. I would enjoy a nice fun day at that park and I'm 68. Well done Jacob and Holiday World! 🤘🤘🤘
Holiday World is a lot BETTER than I expected. Great historic (since 1946) amusement park!
What a charming, people-friendly park that doesn’t take your last penny off you 😊
A round of applause for "I completely forgot this restaurant was here." Took me half a beat and then I laughed out loud.
Right - he kept the shot so you had time to register it.
Doh!!! But do they have a basement? 🤔
HolidayWorld is easily one of the greatest theme parks of all time.
Jacob, the giant chicken thing is an egg timer. I loved this video. Very nice new roller coaster!
Came here to say that
And, just like that, another Monday saved by the Carpetbagger.

Saw that it was all done by the daughter of the owner Will Koch....who is now a owner
@@shawnokeefe1580 at least she got a raise.
well, maybe they should theme the sea horse ride over the dirt lmao
Fun fact; they did a test run of Good Gravy with giant turkey plushies in the seats. You'll probably have seen these turkey plushies in most of the park games as top prize.

the free soda was just gravy...
@@zerxilk8169 LOL!
The big chicken outside was a timer used in many kitchens years ago.
MY HOME PARK!! Been watching u for five years now!
What a fun park. Very coo with free soda and sunscreen, and parking!!
Holiday World is on my bucket list to visit with my family. It looks like it’s so much fun.
I have been sick and binge-watching your videos has helped me. 😷Thank you for them. I love your adventures.
Hope you feel better soon!
@@suemoo22 Thank you!
The original antique cars were definitely one of my favorite attractions at Kings Island. Its definitely meant to give kids the freedom to drive cars and I'm here for it! 👍❤️

The turkey-themed dark ride has to be one of the weirder things I've seen on your channel Jacob.
That would make a great Jacob sit and talk video. The top 10 weird things he's seen.
As weird as it sounds, it actually works well and is a lot of fun. Sure makes it unique to other parks!😂
When my Aunt Shirley moved to Tell City , Indiana and when we visited her she took us to Santa Claus Land back then, remember having a good time, thanks for the video 😊
Very nice editing on the Gravy Coaster sequence.
I agree. Great work around for not being able to film on the ride. The editing and the commitment to setting up the shots over and over are top notch
Thank you! Tried a little something different
I can't believe a holiday themed theme park with a Halloween section doesn't have a haunted house attraction. Weird
I was thinking the exact same thing
Too on the nose perhaps?
My only real complaint with the park, Halloween needs a dark ride or haunt
As a local, I’ve been saying this for most of my life!
I think they do around October
AWESOME! I met u that day but didnt want to disturb u too much. We watch u everyday. I have planned many trips from ure vlogs. It means alot to us that u do this. That area also has many caves. Marengo, Wyandotte, Squire boone. U will be hard pressed to find a prettier cave then Marengo. I am so happy we met u. Thank you!
Hello Jacob I love your new camera. I don't understand why people are complaining about the audio it sounds perfectly fine to me. I understand every word you say.
I always liked the smell of Burning Electricity on the Bumper Cars.
Holiday world seems awesome.
I knew this lame park would attract bigots.
Jacob, you’re very trusting setting your camera down and leaving it. I would be concerned someone would steal it or not notice it, walk by and accidentally kick it.
Yeah, the sound footage while the camera recorded from the ground was cool, but it gave me major anxiety about the brand new camera getting stolen!
So cool you went to holiday world! My hometown! Season pass holders! Hope you had a awesome time!!

The water park is just as big and not an additional admission price.
Very underrated park,
I made the gravy with our dinner tonight, it was fantastic ! Thanks for showing it

The Voyage is my favorite roller coaster in the entire park
The walking taco at Holiday World was always my favorite!
Have a wonderful day, Jacob ❤️
Chicken shaped timer, bud. TY!
The giant chicken was either a general kitchen timer or a egg timer.
The KITCHEN looks like The Brady Bunch show kitchen. ❤
Man sucks i missed you. I live about 45 mins away. You my favorite youtube guy. Thanks for coming to our theme park.
New camera looks great 👍 and thank you for all that you do,it’s very entertaining to watch ,great job
I love holiday world 🥰
Make sure you come back the first week of October for the fall festival in Evansville,IN. It’s the biggest festival after Mardi Gras

Great to meet you!
What a cute theme park, love the gravy boat coaster!!
The ghost pic was perfect, you already look like Booberry.😂
OMG! He really does! 😆
I guess we have the same hat
Thanks!
Thank you!
Great video as always... I am looking forward to seeing Bemidji and the start of your route!
I rode The Voyage back in in 2022 and I did not care for it seemed too rough even rougher than the Beast at Kings Island before the retracking. I love that turkey themed dark ride.
They just retracted a bunch of it and it’s so smooth in those parts
Carpetbagger, Holiday World looks very beautiful. Very colorful and looks like they spent money to make it look right.
You’re back! Glad to see you back!

I prefer parks where everyone in the family can enjoy the rides, not just the kids.
@@jankk Most kid rides can be ridden by adults.
This place does look fun!! The theming was well thought out and without being “too much” it’s cute & creative. I love going through the family home for Good Gravy.
The microphone on while you ride the coaster was awesome!! Hahaha I love your vids
The theme of the good gravy que is so good! I've never heard of this park but would love to visit it! Thanks for the videos Jacob!
Wow what a unique dark ride
Loving the new camera that follows you when you move around! Kudos for trying something new
I was lucky enough to get to visit this park a few years back. I love the vibe.
I appreciated to tour of the park and the running commentary!
This place is incredible I have never heard of it. Everything looks so new and done really well.
It is the cleanest park in the nation, I assure you. And it’s a lot of fun!
I was just there a few weeks ago and Holiday World and the town of Santa Claus is my favorite place in the whole world
Ah, man. We JUST missed you at the park! We live thirty minutes from here and we go multiple times a year! I love this place!
Hallow Swings ride and area looks amazing in the evening. Makes you instantly feel like it's an Indiana fall when you see it at night . Love it
Camera is working well here. Putting it down and having it track you while you walked to the photo op was seamless. You’re probably not after more camera feedback but I thought it worthwhile that I noticed and it was good.
What a great park! I was hoping there would be souvenir gravy boats in the gift shop, lol! Pretty and clean park, too! Nice coaster footage!

30:13 That's a kitchen timer.
Going there on memorial day weekend for the forst time ever!
This reminds me of the holiday trees from The Nightmare Before Christmas. This place is literally all of them lol
I never been to Holiday World in Indiana, I'm in Louisville Kentucky I grew up in the 80s and 90s going to Kentucky Kingdom were they would have the state Fair later in August but you go anytime to Kentucky Kingdom. I'm 48 now just had a birthday May 6th. Thanks for sharing this Jacob 🤓📸 your awesome 👍
they also sell big red in parts of Kentucky as well
I love anything free at an amusement park. I would like to go to Holiday World one day. Have a great time Jacob!
I absolutely enjoy your videos brother...i havent got thru all your older videos but i will...this makes me think of my late mother she loved Christmas more than any human being ive ever known..she always wanted to go to Santa Land in NC but we never got to go..do you know if its still going? Lots o love to you n yours from your Southeast Tennessee neighbor
If anyone is wondering what the coasters here they are.
Good gravy: first custom vekoma junior boomerang, good ride
Thunder bird: b&m launched wing coaster, pretty good ride.
Howler:just a zamperla gravity coaster.
The legend: focused on laterals, great cci coaster.
The raven: focused on hills and turns, again great cci
The voyage: focused on airtime, anything you could want on a coaster, top tier, best ride in the park.
I really enjoyed this holiday world video, Jacob! 👍👍👍👍
What a fun amusement park.
The Voyage is the second longest wooden roller coaster behind The Beast. Holiday World is the roller coaster capital of the world for a reason.
Love your Dinosaur Land shirt - we just visited that amazing roadside attraction two weeks ago!! Such a great place and the owners were so friendly.
And the audio for the train ride. mwah
Holiday World is my favorite!❤👍
Good Gravy at Holiday World looked a great park with some really good rides there too Jacob 👍
Love the mascots
Good Morning Jacob 🙋🏽
Great video, Jacob. love the mascot that place looks like a lot of fun. Till the next one safe travels my friend and take care.
The Christmas part was the original park, Santa Claus Land. I loved it back then! Still family owned, and the cleanest park I’ve ever been to.
I haven't watched for a few weeks... or months... and WOW! The camera quality is looking amazing!!!
Im a sucker for roller coasters 🎢 luv the nostalgia at this theme park
Good Morning " YA ALL " JACOB the CARPETBAGGER..!!
Thank You so much for sharing your adventures. I had so much fun watching you. I have watched about 4 or 5 so far. I cannot wait to watch more. Take care.
I grew up when it was Santa Claus land I’m from Vincennes Indiana
Sometimes simple is amazing 😊Enjoyed! 😊
Hi Jacob Lovely park old school vibes nice everything !!!!!! XXXX
Your daughter is very smart! ❤️ Great idea about the sunscreen! She needs to find a way to market her idea!! Because you know a place like Disneyland, is not going to have free sunscreen.
You had no mashed potatoes with your Turkey??!! That's criminal!!
Also no cranberry sauce
Holiday World is really the best park ever.
That chicken is a timer to time your fiod
Haven’t been here in the last few years and I totally miss it
We plan on a two day visit for first visit! Great park you present!
Now all we need is a roller coaster themed to cranberry sauce.
