    Grew up in Fullerton. That was in the 1970s. This brings back amazing memories. Knott's Berry Farm is still a relatively undiscovered gem of America. Great vid!!! Love your channel

      I'm from needles. I went their this year and hated it. You have to pay with a card. I love the chicken soup at Grandma's Knotts, but it was awful. It tasted old, like real old 😖 never going again until they get rid of their commie way of doing things.

    Ghostrider is easily my favorite rollercoaster too. That back car is pure insanity, the way it whips you around and drops you...SO GOOD

    one of my favorite family memories was visiting Knotts. Taking my family in March to Disneyland...Knotts...Universal and the beach. We went last year for the Boysenberry festival but all the rides were still closed...can't wait to hit it this year finally after almost 50 years.

    Buena Park born and raised, very nice video Chris ..! Love Knott's, so many memories growing up, I lived off of ... Knott Avenue ..! Boysenberry Punch, Pie, Chicken Dinner ..! Yum! When I was little, there was no fence around the park, that came around in the early 70s ... They also use to have former San Francisco Cable Cars ... And across Beach Blvd where there is just parking they use to have the pond with row boats and paddle boays , a merry go round and the small train that you rode in Camp Snoopy ... I love my childhood ...
    Again, thanks for the great video and memories, Chris ...

    Thanks for doing another video on Knott's. I just went with my daughter for the first time. It was a great alternative to Disney with bigger coasters, shorter lines, smaller crowds and a better price. Not quite the same atmosphere but still a great day.

    When I was in the 6th grade, my class stayed at a camp for a week called Camp Waskowitz. We panned for gold there too! The "gold" was either fake gold flakes or gravel pieces painted gold if I remember correctly. But of course as a kid, I thought it was real lol.

    I grew up in Los Angeles and would frequently visit Disney and Knott's. My favorite ride as a kid was the wacky soap box racers. They are long gone but were so much fun. I live in San Diego now but I have taken my kids to OC for a great wolf lodge knotts vacation. Thanks for the video.

    • @emilywhittaker9414

  • @sekhmara8590
    @sekhmara8590 Před 2 lety +1

    Haven’t been to Knott’s since the late 70’s, but vividly remember panning for gold. It was a lot of fun for us kids. The old west part reminds me of Tombstone Junction, Kentucky. A fav place my grandparents would take us. They had a really cool steam train you could ride. Real blast from the past! Now the adult me wants to go back to Knott’s, ride those coasters, and eat all the things. Thanks for the fun tour!

  • @ChristopherDimitriousPhanara

    I was in Knotts Berry Farm back in the late 60's. But unfortunately we went to Disney First and found, back then, did not live up to Disney. But i did get a caricature of me when i was 15. wish i could find it.

  • @corwinbriere6887
    @corwinbriere6887 Před rokem +5

    I recently went to both Disneyland and Knott’s Berry Farm. I have got to say I had way more fun at Knott’s Berry Farm. I had the fast pass and it was amazing you could completely skip the line and go on way more rides then if you had to wait in line. I can’t say the same for the genie pass at Disneyland I did go on a buddy day but lines were outrageous to get food you needed to wait 30 min and don’t get me started with finding a table that had rain cover or a table at all. I personally didn’t see any Disney characters but I wasn’t personally looking. My sister was and she brought this book that my mom had when she was a kid and didn’t want to spend her day waiting in line. At Disney land the lines were horrible.
    But Knott’s Berry farm is so much fun and if I ever get to go back to California I will be going back also the never go hungry thing was great but we maid the mistake of getting the never go hungry and the food premium and that was way to much food.

    You can still go up to the balcony at the saloon and chill or watch the show. Usually the shows are musical acts and they are really fun and great performers. It’s one of my favorite spot at Knotts

    Time for us to head back here. When we're visiting, we do it all... Knott's, Disney, Universal, Great Wolf, etc. and head south to Legoland, Sea World, etc. They all have something for everyone and nothing better for a parent to see happy smiles on their kids' faces.

    Chris, such an incredible video! Knott's Berry Farm is such an amazing theme park and the last time I have ever been there was pre covid. I remember the horse ride and Sad Eye Joe and this video really brought back memories. I hope to visit Knott's Berry Farm again in the future. It's amazing to know that this was a berry farm selling pies before it was a theme park. I'm amazed to know that there is no reservation system to get into Knott's and that's incredible. Thank you as always for bringing me great content, huge fan as always!

  • @BryanW.
    @BryanW. Před 2 lety +2

    Boysenberry funnel cake has to be the best park treat ever created. Knott's is a great place especially off-season. You can hit everything in one day and still grab a chicken dinner at Mrs. Knotts. Great stuff as always oh bearded one!

    I used to live in SoCal, and we were definitely big fans of the theme parks in the area. We were mostly a Disneyland family, but we also loved going to Knott’s. We loved the rides and the chicken dinners. It’s not my main park but it’s certainly close to my heart.

  • @michaeltaylor1603
    @michaeltaylor1603 Před 2 lety +1

    Anything Boysenberry is GREAT! I had a Snoopy electric toothbrush as a kid & Charlie brown alarm clock that said he was allergic to morning! My 1st ride on one like Montezuma's was in Houston. I screamed like a girl during launch, loop butter smooth, left stomach @ the top of 1st hill. Best ride EVER though (also 1st time ride @ night no glasses!) Yes! The theming of the park is lovingly done. A visit is like putting on a favorite old pair of house shoes. When I go to Disneyland, Knott's is always a MUST as well. I'm ready for some chicken too. Thanks Chris!

    Believe it or not... when I was a kid we went to Knott's berry farm, a driving holiday with family. We ate berry stuff and brought jam to take home but the big deal is I saw Peter, Paul and Mary perform live. Can you say Puff the Magic Dragon. They were on a stage and we were all outside watching the show. My mom liked it much more than Disneyland. We went to Knott's Berry farm before ever seeing Disneyland. Once we went to Disneyland, my brother and I were... Disneyland is the best.

    Your video brought back lots of memories. I haven’t been to Knott’s since 79 when I was still in High School. I joined the USAF and retired in Texas. I also learned that I don’t do well on roller coasters at Knott’s. A trip on Montazoomas Revenge, followed by the Corkscrew (removed) and I had to sit down for 30 minutes. It’s only gotten worse as I got older. I miss Knott’s and Disneyland, I’ll get back someday.

    How fun and very refreshing to show case Knott's. We began returning to Knott's during the early covid period when the park was beginning to do soft openings. Their Seasonal events are truly exceptiona.l I truly enjoy their Halloween much more than Disney. This park is truly a real value for what they offer their guests. A little Trivia back in the day when the log ride opened it opened the iconic actor John Wayne and his kids opened that attraction. My family for generations have had many many wonderful Memories from this theme park. Now in our later years it is truly a gift to be able to return and rewalk those Happy footsteps there. I must give a very resounding shout out to the entire team at Knotts, each time we have visited the park in the past several years years we receive exceptional customer service Across-the-board and every Box is always checked. These folks truly and sincerely appreciate and value the guest that come to visit this park. Best Wishes to you and your entire family as we begin 2022 .👍🥂 Your biggest fans from the desert We will have to meet up at Club 33 again 😉

    Couple of fun facts 1. Xcelerator(one of the all time great coasters) was ride manufacturer Intamin's first ever hydraulic launch coaster 2. Intamin, who made the Calico River Rapids also made the Grizzly River ride at DCA 3. May be wrong here, but based on some research I did Montezooma's Revenge is the first launch coaster on the West Coast(East coast had Schwarzkopf and Arrow coasters a year earlier) 4. A guy who worked on a lot of Knotts, Bud Hurlbut who designed and worked on the Calico Mine Train and the Timber Mountain Log Ride, opened his own small theme park Castle Park in my hometown of Riverside and 5. Knotts Bear-y Tales is a 1975 dark ride which was designed by legendary Disney Imagineer Rolly Crump who did quite a bit of work on the Haunted Mansion among many others, and the new sequel ride was designed with input from Crump, one of the last living original Imagineers
    Great video, I love Knotts and hope it helped some other folks love Knotts too
