    His home he had before that is in corbin ky where the original restaurant is. I am just a few miles away from the original restaurant and museum. Col.Sanders was a very nice man, i use to see him all the time.

    Jordan you were looking at that bucket light in the case. When I was little, that's the lighting they had in the restaurants. That was a nice blast from the pass. I remember the packets of honey, the paper hats, and stuff too. Thanks for the video. 🥰

    In Japan Fried Chicken is a big thing for Christmas. You have to put your order in in November to get it for Christmas. Most places run out of chicken. I love this museum. Scott Michaels should come visit it. He'll never want to leave. Lol. Thanks for sharing this with us. Take care.

    • @donnap587
      @donnap587 Před 5 měsíci

      Yes, I didn’t think the bust looked like the colonel at all. It is creepy looking.

    Great video, Jordan. The animatronic Colonel is a cool way to greet visitors but, in my younger years, I got to meet Colonel Sanders personally. I was a teenager and the Colonel was appearing as a guest on a TV game show at NBC Studios in Burbank. I waited next to his limo after the show and, when he came out, he gave me a big smile, a warm handshake and an autographed picture that I still have to this day. He couldn't have been nicer. I'll definitely have to visit the museum sometime.

    @rwieber79 Před 6 měsíci +2

    Hey Jordan your coming towards my neck of the woods in Louisville. I used to work at Winston Industries and we made the collectramatic pressure fryers Col Sanders used for KFC. He and the owner Winston Shelton were good friends and worked together to build the pressure fryers that are used by most KFC stores to this day. Winston just passed away a few years ago. Also we did alot of business with the Claudia Sanders restaurant and actually had company dinners there several times as well. Anyway one time when your in Louisville it would be cool to meet you and say hi.

  • @mickeywarnock3249

    I love KFC! It tasted a lot better back in the 70 & 80's. It was always a treat when Mom would come home from work on a Friday night with those red and white box dinners for us. I remember they used to have a buttered corn on the cob wrapped in foil with with the chicken, biscuit and mashed potatoes in the box. And also the little butter packets for the biscuits. Not anymore on that and the corn! Also back in the early 80's the had desserts which were these parfaits of either strawberry or chocolate....so good! You could also get chicken livers and gizzards if you asked (since it wasn't on the menu)...which were really good with that original recipe coating on them! That went away also by the late 80's. At least in CA. On a road trip thru TN back in 2007, me and a friend stopped in at a KFC there and they had them on their menu there! Yeah, love KFC. Just wish it tasted like it used to back in the day!

    • @alaricabercrombie2692
      @alaricabercrombie2692 Před 5 měsíci +1

      Yes, you're right. I remember how it tasted back in the 70s & 80s, and you could smell the aroma of the fried chicken 2 to 3 blocks away from the restaurant 😋👏👏. Now, I can't smell anything whenever I pass by a KFC 😂👎.

    His grave is also in Louisville, in Cave Hill Cemetery and the original restaurant/gas station is about 2 1/2 hours southeast of Louisville.

  • @rwdplz1
    @rwdplz1 Před 5 měsíci +1

    8:15 It's a little more complicated than that, he shot the guy in self defense. The same guy was later shot and killed by a deputy.
    14:05 Also true! People order their chicken ahead of time, and stand in line to pick it up, you can see the commercials here on CZcams. The Japanese call him 'Kenta-kun' (Kenta = Kentucky). Japan used to have statues of the Colonel outside the stores. One of these statues was thrown in a river when some sports fans got too rowdy, and 'The Curse of the Colonel' supposedly led to that team's subsequent 18-year pennant drought and 38 year title drought

    I'm glad it didn't close. I forgot about that cool amatronic. Thanks for bringing back memories of my childhood with the light-up bucket. Those buckets were lights in the restaurants back in the early 70s. Surprise, they didn't have the Playskool Kentucky Fired Chicken playset in there. We got one in Toyland that I still play with. 😅

    There was an old TV show based out of NYNY in the late '60s to early '70s called Wonderama hosted by a man named Bob MacCallster, and I remember him being on that show. He told the children how he started with hard work and that they needed to work hard to succeed.

    Colonel first restaurant for Kentucky fried chicken was in Corbin Kentucky. The Kentucky candies are delicious not everyone can make it properly, it is so creamy and melts in your mouth. I do think that is my favorite candy of all time it’s so rich you can’t eat very much.

    In Japan in the 2000s they threw any statue of the colonel, they could find into canals about 50% of them have been recovered and are proudly preserved water damage and all the recovered statues are seen as great monuments in history and honored in Japanese tradition!

    • @DanielThureskog
      @DanielThureskog Před 5 měsíci +3

      Miraculously, the curse of the Japanese baseball team Hanshin Tigers was broken this year, after had lost many times before. They won the Japan series championship.
      "The curse was said to be placed on the team because of the Colonel's anger over treatment of one of his store-front statues, which was thrown into the Dōtonbori River by celebrating Hanshin fans before their team's 1985 Central League pennant. As is common with sports-related curses, the Curse of the Colonel was used to explain the team's subsequent 18-year pennant drought and 38 year title drought. Some fans believed the team would never win another Japan Series until the statue had been recovered." It has been a tradition to eat American Fried Chicken every Christmas in Japan. The queue to their KFC is usually record-breaking.

    him a deal in having a restaurant that served chicken only.
    And they laughed and said a restaurant that serves only chicken that will never catch on.If they only knew the out come of that thought.

    A heated argument ensued with guns on both sides being pulled and the whole thing devolving into a firefight in which Sanders successfully shot Stewart, but not before one of the Shell managers, Robert Gibson, was himself shot and killed.
    Luckily for Sanders and all of us who enjoy KFC, however, as Stewart had shot at the trio first, Sanders would get off scot-free. It was self-defense, you see… Despite, you know, the trio being the ones to approach the lone Stewart packing their guns.
    And so it was that Stewart went to jail for murdering Gibson
