Christmas at Hersheypark - Christmas Candy Lane - Ride Themed After Laughing Sal

[@srnmb2569]

Laughing Sal at Kennywood Park's penny arcade located in West Mifflin, Pa. This theme park also has rides open during their Christmas event in December. It is about 3.5 hours from Hershey.

[@lissachocolate]

I love the beautiful Christmas events at amusement parks.

[@arc4ne_ann1h1lation]

I remember going to Hershey, PA each year when i was in the KHS band for ACC's

[@lennamolter2401]

Since you are in thie Hershey area you should see the drive thru Joy Thru the Grove at Knoebels

[@haskellburks]

Hello Jacob. You do an awesome job showing us all of these theme parks and other places that you go to.

[@amerbooboo1...]

I'm so glad you come to Pennsylvania

[@dawnbenchley7237]

Love Hershey chocolate!!!

[@aprilgreggjean-louis2795]

I haven't been there in years

[@leslietonn3181]

I miss your Christmas intro where you're Santa in a possum-pulled sleigh.

[@rcharlton1973]

I never knew they were open for the holidays. Thank you for sharing 😁 I hope and pray that you and yours have a blessed and safe holiday. 😊

[@terrymessner2940]

Aww you were right here and I missed you!

[@lisalasota8115]

Hi Jacob, thanks for sharing the Hershey park Christmas, Carmelo is my favorite chocolate bar too, love you

[@bookhooplawithmrsa]

Caramello is my absolute favorite too!

[@EBThisThat]

Seeing the lights from Hershey park was a true treat ! Thanks for sharing your fun with us !

[@pamesu7712]

Hi Jacob, Kennywood Park, Pittsburgh, has a laughing Sal.

[@mizu_the_floatzel]

[@robylove9190]

[@meganpeveich8407]

[@LostInSpace175]

[@prettycindy1001]

🎄Merry Christmas Jacob!🎄

[@jummylee8889]

Marry new Year!!!!!!!

[@paulfuryes203]

Cool place love all the lights, nice one.

[@viviennemorgan7217]

i went to hershey park when i was younger.

[@RubyofTrinity]

AFAIK, my grandmother (who lived in Hershey from 1950 - 2010) confirmed that the Laffing Sal under glass at LaffTrack is indeed the original Laffing Sal who used to preside over the Hershey Park walk-through funhouse "Whoops!" It was closed in the late 60s. You can see photos of it on some of the murals in the Boardwalk area of the park today. It might be fun to drive out to the Allen Theater in Annville. It's a 1930s movie theater that has been restored to its original glory. You might want to call ahead, I have no idea what their post-COVID schedule is like. The owners rescued a large number of Hershey Park animatronics. HP never had that many, but those on display include Laffing Sal (currently on loan to Hershey Park), a knockoff Rockafire Explosion band of bears similar to the one at Knoebels, and I think they may also have acquired Mimi the Mermaid from the now defunct Kid's Cove area near Zoo America (it is currently a picnic pavilion). Also: the monorail was intended to replace the old Trolley system (check out the Hershey Historical Society behind the outlet malls for more info on that) that existed from about 1900 - 1960. The last trolley rail was torn up in the 1990s. Sadly, the monorail could not compete with the American auto industry, and was never expanded beyond its present route around the Park and the old Hershey Department Store (now Houlihan's) and the Hershey Bank (I think it's a PNC branch now).

[@markwebster5749]

Awesome 🦭

[@christophermartin1138]

Love it when he does the snow globe bit , always makes me smile

[@goofyrulez7914]

Did you know they couldn't remove those people on the roller coaster from their seats because they were frozen there! 🥶😝

[@ginav2011]

Thank you so much for doing this video. I've never been to Hershey's Park, PA, so seeing this was wonderful to see. I'm 60 and don't travel anymore. Thank you, Gail Van Miert East Rutherford, New Jersey

[@godse573]

The Bears were actually playing at home both Saturday and Sunday nights, I was at both games. Small world!

[@marybmccormick]

Oh so much fun today ☺️😘☺️ awesome time thanks for sharing this love Mary have a wonderful blessed day today

[@lizlocher3612]

Very cool place to video even in the cold!! Loved your addition to the Laughing Sal family portrait!!! The monorail ride that also goes through the town is fabulous n the lights n decor you see from it are awesome!!! Attaboy, Carpetbagger!!! Merry Merry!!! Happy Christmas!!!

[@listenuppeople1]

When Hershey bends down the shadows make it look like the candy is blinking!

[@zerxilk8169]

We enjoyed this very much.

[@georges1757]

Welcome to my home park even if you were there yesterday 😂

[@karennolt3325]

The Hershey bears have a night where folks throw bears on the ice and they collect them and take them to the children at hospital

[@ContactBrand]

I was there this Summer. Extremely crowded lol. I could only do the zoo, monorail and lazy river. So in the lazy river I went around at least 3x. But good times nonetheless.

[@TheTheresaYoung]

Wish I knew you were coming. We are season pass holders. My daughter is a Hershey and Hersheypark expert. She knows soooo much about the park and the history. If you ever come down next year give us a shout out and we can give you a tour. 😉 Glad you had a sweet time.

[@dougney3026]

Hello my friend from Virginia 👍 again I used to go there in the 70s great DAYS 🙂

[@mothman4676]

I saw the chocolate bar blowing a kiss 😂😂😂 #couldnthelpit😂

[@talfacprez]

The chocolate PayDay or the Heath bars are my favorite. If the Hershey bar character is a male then it is a Hershey bar with nuts.

[@BennyLlama39]

LOL! If it's male, it has nuts. Can't argue with that logic. 🤣

[@deanatgmail]

we always see this park... go to cadbury world, they also have a educational dark ride that is free

[@MrJohnnyCash1932]

Thank you Mr Carpetbagger! Another lovely vid!

[@patchoulijulie8700]

Pretty!!! Too cute! Thanks for taking us. 😊

[@allenrudisill2082]

Hey Jacob glad to see you visiting near my neck if the woods in pa👍

[@shannonraymartin3176]

😳🤯🥺😭 WOW! IT'S BEAUTIFUL! I wish Fl. would have something this wonderful. ul have

[@josephstanley5138]

Hello Jacob the Hershey Bears are the AHL affiliate of the Washington Capitals. I used to go to their home games when I lived in Lebanon county.

[@Droford824]

For Christmas lights in PA I'd recommend Longwood Gardens. Lots of lights outside and the indoor exhibits of plants and decorated trees is a fun night as long as it's not super cold.

[@Thomasfan239sucksLOL]

check out the Strasburg railroad in Strasburg PA (Lancaster)

[@caldadextra2063]

Donner is the German name for Thor. This is also why Donner being Rudolph’s after is integral to the Rudolph mythos, as Donner’s name is a reflection of his status amongst the other reindeer, which makes Rudolph’s initial oetracization even more disappointing to his fatherhood

[@cliffchurchwell3793]

Donner means Thunder in Deutch

[@marcusblackwell2372]

More Rudolph lore? Fascinating

[@warmlantern0000]

Huh 🤣

[@jeremyheath6178]

🤔

[@thundercat8601]

Nope, Donner means Thunder and Blitzen means Lightning

[@matthewfarmer2520]

You been to Hershey Park I don't know how Many times, awesome video Jacob, thanks for sharing 👍😁🎄

[@Coasterjaminphotos]

Wish I would have known you were going to be there…

[@angelalinderman9985]

Looks wonderful this time of year! I live in Pennsylvania so I should take a road trip soon! 👍😁🎄⛄

[@diecast_MikeEspo]

Very cool place , Hershey Park has a great GIANT Car show , I have been to it a few times . Very cool video. Mike .

[@brendakrieger7000]

Never been there for Christmas🎄🚂⛄🎅🐧

[@LaughingWarriorBrigade]

Jacob, I just got this month's postcard and it might be my favorite ever..! I look forward to that postcard every month and have all of them stuck to the wall in my bedroom... I think of them like souvenirs from my own fantasy back in time road trip... Thanks for the memories..!

[@etzweilerl]

I live maybe 10 minutes from Hershey Park and grew up going pretty much every year. It’s fun to see an outside perspective 😊

[@Drambles77]

From Poop Cafe to Hersheypark, I'm sensing a theme! lol. Thanks for the great video CB!

[@zerxilk8169]

are you saying the next one is a meat-up or some other meat pun??

[@artisticalex1206]

I want to go to this park one of these days during Christmas time. It looks very fun.

[@ajcrx0421]

It is a shame that the lines are always so long for the rides. Laff track we got on only because we went directly there when the park opened the gates to let every one in.

[@wendidallas8213]

Ok please tell me you got the pink jolly rancher cat for Jen? LOL great video again!

[@Bizarreboy10]

Jacob, if your still in Pennsylvania definitely hit up Koziar’s Christmas Village in Bernville. It’s an hour away from Hershey and it’s a must visit.

[@GrimReaper-3]

Your such a happy spirit!!🎅🏼🤶🏻

[@mariabrand4021]

Jacob, there is a Laughing Sal at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk in Santa Cruz, California! Fun place to visit with a historical carousel! 😃

[@peace.love.dolewhip7820]

Live close to Hershey…the way I would have fangirled seeing you! Love your vlogs so much! I have so much travel inspiration from you!

[@Heatherofscots]

Loved the video as always .The Hershey Bears are the farm team for The Washington Capitals. As a PA resident, you don't have to tell me about the PA Turpike tolls 💸

[@allenperreault7825]

Hey Jacob, Great video as always.. I worked at Hersheypark during the summer of 2018, loved every minute of it.

[@misshatfield7334]

Hey Jacob, there's a book titled Semisweet, made by someone who lived at the Hershey school/orphanage. I highly recommend reading up on it if you would like to learn more historical facts about it and the factory. 🙂

[@ferg1680]

Welcome to Pennsylvania 🎄

[@randywest5149]

Christmas Candy Lane at Hershey Park in Hershey, Pennsylvania USA 🇺🇲 Looks Soul Cool.

[@purpledragon8368]

My last postcard from you is with laffin’ Sal. Awesome. Thanks Jacob.

[@bobcalderon2534]

Excellent work, once again.

[@EpiCTriPpiNDeAdaHeAd]

Frozen chocolate! Go Steelers!

[@crusadergamer4995]

Great video

[@artandmorewithrachelnicole]

Lovin it 💕

[@stashmerkin9576]

Jacob, children do not enjoy watching Sal laugh. There was one at Myers Lake in Canton Ohio that TERRIFIED me as a child! I think she's still on display somewhere in the Canton area.

[@Spike-sk7ql]

Those things still are creepy.

[@jummylee8889]

Yeah give me diabetes

[@xoxoxoxoxo7997]

Wow I'm surprised they are open in December. Cold in PA this time of year

[@ryansexton3689]

Of course I go the wrong day lol

I’m so glad you did this! My dream was to visit Hershey Park for so long! Finally made it this summer. Was so bummed the monorail was not working. Hoping to go back in a couple years. I’ve always wanted to see Hershey at Christmas time! So pretty! Looks like a good time!

[@pysankar]

Never heard Donner referred as Donder before. Donner is the German word for thunder.

[@bg199083]

I went to Christmas at Hersheypark in 2018. Love the Christmas Lights they have there. My mom and I will be going to the Christmas Spectacular at Six Flags Great Adventure.

[@karenstraw7301]

What A Treat for the Eyes It's great to See that Hershey Park is Celebrating in the Christmas Festivities. Thank you Jacob for A Wonderful Video. I really Enjoyed watching this video its changed so much since I was there in 1994. I bought your Merman Pin last week in Etsy Which I'm waiting on to Add to my Set

[@wynellsuejones7641]

Sweet video

[@ryanOGab]

Technically all Santa’s reindeer have to be female, male reindeer keep there antlers from spring to fall .Most males (bulls) shed their fuzzy antlers before the beginning of winter.They only need them for the mating season,occurs in the fall. Once the male reindeer have used their antlers to impress their mates, they no longer need them and they fall out/ shed them before Christmastime. Females retain their antlers throughout winter until after they give birth to calves in the spring/may time .This gives the expectant mothers a means to protect food resources through the harsh weather and there new offspring from predators and adult males. So any reindeer with antlers at Christmas time are female. Unless they’re steers, castrated males they don’t lose there antlers until February or mid March.

[@TheCarpetbagger]

So Santa castrated them?

[@ryanOGab]

@@TheCarpetbagger unfortunately I think so but you never know mrs Claus Could be a dab-hand at it too .Awesome you replied, my fave KZbin channel of all time. Happy new year carpetbagger.

[@dylanspangler539]

If you’re ever at candylane and you see the 1 red light on the kissing tower that was started by my dad to make the boss angry 😅

[@amytraveling]

You always do a great job with your videos

[@Savagemister]

I like it

[@robrineer6013]

I knew you would love Laff Trakk. It usually has a very long line. Wish they had more Merch for it though.

[@TheCarpetbagger]

I would buy some

[@wwejason]

You should visit The Christmas Casino at Rising Star Casino in Rising Sun, Indiana which is very close to Cincinnati. They have live reindeer, as well.

[@ihopcsx]

I use to go there for birthdays

[@warmlantern0000]

🎄🎅 Hello Jacob 🎅🎄

[@christopherlucas4620]

One place on my bucket list is visiting Hershey PA. Why? I want to give them a piece of my mind in person because they changed the Hershey’s Kisses Christmas “We Wish You a Merry Christmas” commercial.

[@arleenrooney2059]

Had to be fun but cold.

[@connied1192]

The giant kisses are hollow. I thought they were solid until I got it home and broke it. 😥

[@hillorisartin6129]

That's a bummer the store at cupfusion is empty. It was full when we were there several years ago. The twizzler character was there back then. That was 2018 I think.
