Dollywood 2021 - What has Reopened? What has Changed?

[@Lipbuzz]

Good Morning Carpetbagger and carpetbaggies

[@enzojayden1]

Yeh It's 4 am here

[@throwawayaccount6042]

I have to say. I absolutely love your Vlogging. It helped me get through my MBA and is helping me de-stress from divorce, my toddler, school, and work while I pursue my second masters!

[@DocDoccus]

I never thought the pinnacle of my day would be seeing Dolly Parton's toilet.

[@kellybenko2828]

It's where she does her poops and what nots.

[@evagengler9666]

Crude, TMI from the Carpetbagger.

[@rodc2678]

A moment where Jacob crossed the line and kept going just a bit more, really funny

[@rebeccaw68]

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@rz9305]

Dolly Parton is a true testament to compassion, kindness, and national treasure 🦋🦋🦋❤️❤️👑👑👑👑

[@amyjames7064]

YES PLEASE REVIEW WATER PARKS!!! My family and I have actually finally decided to go to a couple of places after watching your reviews. Also my 4 year old loves watching your videos just in general. Thank you for staying family friendly 💓

[@silverghostcat1924]

Dolly and Keanu are two of the most kind and genuine humans on the planet in my book.

[@Jivolt]

Fun Fact: In all 50 states it is illegal to not like Dolly Parton.

[@micmagellan5689]

Straight ☝ on American Gods! Know our folk Heroes!

[@macrent2]

It is a federal crime.

[@wildsmiley]

Hell, even I like her, and I really don’t like country music.

[@TeethOfDead]

I like to be an outlaw anyway

[@bonnieharris8112]

My sister and I both love Dolly. She rocks! I love how much she cares about people! Bless you Dolly!

[@Justme-ok3bf]

Everyone LOVES Dolly, it’s the law! 😉😉

[@slickbelge]

Everyone LOVES carpetbagger too! 😊😊

[@michaeldickens7493]

Yes forsure lol

[@Justme-ok3bf]

@420rgb2 2 actually he did a video where he fully explains the meaningof the word and why he uses it....

[@failtotravel]

@420rgb2 2 Nah.. the Civil War ended a long time ago and most Northerners could care less about the petty feud Southerns still have today with the North. It's so bizarre that even today most Southerners have issues with the North and Northerns to the point where you feel the need to be negative. I grew up in the south and was always taught "The north is a bad place and they hate us", but now that I live here I can see thatNortherners have no feelings towards the South and it was all just people still being petty that their ancestors lost a war that happened a long time ago.

[@leetrevino1686]

Do you know any of the you tubers that been to the same sights you been too

[@eringemini7091]

Aloha Jacob! I absolutely adore Dolly Parton, I remember her my favorite movies she did; "Best Little Whorehouse In Texas & "Nine To Five-" The song "I Will Always Love You"- is a MASTERPIECE of songwriting, every part of it!! The BEST thing about Dolly is she has always been sweet & relatable, never mean, never said anything bad about anyone!😊💕

[@jcg336]

The River Rampage is my favorite from way back to the beginning of Dollywood. I’ve probably never laughed more or gotten wetter on any other ride anywhere!

[@firmestshrimp710]

"Where Dolly would make her poops and what not."

[@patrickinthesmokys5165]

xD

[@sandy89107]

Too funny 😅

[@unclemetal8774]

😄

[@kellybenko2828]

The Carpetbagger at a waterpark would give me life.

[@butterflygirl13]

Parking is $20 standard cars & $25 for RV's & etc when I was there in April. But since i was staying at the resort, rode the trolley for free!🥰

[@MikeWeiner]

I have missed you so much! I don't know why, but YT has not been showing me you had new videos. Its SO good to see and hear you again :)

[@heatherkegerreis3264]

Years ago, Dolly’s musical version of 9 to 5 was in previews at the Marquis Theatre at the Marriott Marquis hotel in NYC when I was staying there. I knew the show was about to let out one night and so I decided to people watch in the lobby. Right as they were singing the closing number I saw Dolly being whisked around backstage by her two big body guards so she could give the cast her notes. It was amazing!

[@jaydawgmm69]

Thank you for showing parts of Dollywood that other vloggers have never filmed before. Most just do rides, but you show interesting things. I like that.

[@Hooliquinn]

The little wave the one guy and the young lady gave you 🥰. That was precious.

[@lemonadespice2009]

Time?

[@markpessoni2893]

It’s weird how Dollywood’s parking is expensive, but at Silver Dollar City parking is free

[@jimbos7228]

Dollywood parking is free for active duty and retired personnel thankfully

[@juliecalkins9694]

? Parking is free at Silver Dollar City? Yes, however you have to park a long ways away from the gate to get the free parking. If you want near the gate you have to pay at least $10.

[@derrickm2093]

@@juliecalkins9694 They run free trams all day to and from the parking lot so that's not an issue at all

[@DJDNDK]

Thank you for showing us these places when we physically can't. 💕

[@beckylg8176]

Hahaha when he said (here she makes her Poops and what not). I was laughing so hard.

[@clicheguevara5282]

Me too bc everyone twos that number twos aren't allowed on tour busses. Lol

[@karyn3341]

Really? I get why, its close quarters, but sometimes its unavoidable lol!

[@beckylg8176]

@@clicheguevara5282 no poop on the tour bus, or on boats lmao.

[@juanzapata492]

Dolly Parton is a kind and generous lady

[@jimdolde]

Dolly does not own Dollywood

[@drucifer00]

I like that Dolly has a mirrored ceiling in her RV bedroom.

[@NotBendy580]

Like you lay down and boom it's you.

[@sarahnilla9381]

Honestly I'd love to see you go to some water parks lol.

[@mitchellhalter4]

Same

[@Draven_7]

Your videos about Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge were a great help to my family and I on our vacation last week.

[@Bobherry]

Splash Country is awesome. Also A few days ago dollywood announced an expansion to the resorts and possibly park.

[@craftycoaster7488]

Thanks for covering Dollywood. I spend a bit of time in east Tennessee and wanted to know what was open in pigeon forge.

[@annking8633]

Loved taking a ride with you on Blazing Fury!!!

[@OutdoorsWithShawn]

So glad they kept the old car ride when they put in Lightning Rod. Not all fun rides have to be extreme. They neutered Mystery Mine when they took out that section of track.

[@lillyannpersicke11]

Awesome to see this video because I am going to Dollywood next week with my extended family. Thanks for the tips and tricks 😊

[@suthius85]

Jacob I'm down for waterpark vlogs if you're able to record on the slides. Almost all waterparks are the same. Some though, are indeed unique.

[@BloodylocksBathory]

She's one of the most genuine people in the history of humanity.

[@crueltyfreecolorist1025]

She is one celebrity who has had no bad status. Wonderful lady!

[@joenobody8996]

Heading out there next week!!!! First vacation in 2 years! Very excited

[@OurShowOurStory]

Parking at Dollywood jumped from $15 to $20 this year

[@englishatheart]

Charges out the ass to park, charges out the ass for entry.

[@jasonschannel1315]

Isn't it 25 dollar's if I am correct that he said.

[@KennethGallman1]

Just left there this past weekend. Really enjoyed it. Stayed at the in at christmas place.

[@starrlea8291]

Thank you for this! I've always wanted to go to Dollywood and this informative and amazing video has me all the more determined!

[@mykstand]

I live in Knoxville and love watching your Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg reviews. :)

[@tamsenroberts7201]

J. Love your green Crocs!!! Glad you're doing well!!! Love and Respect Tamsen Roberts in Riverside California

[@marcospisanis739]

Hey Carpetbagger! Glad to see your in my new home state to Tennessee. Still need to visit all the places you have here in this state. Especially some of my favorites tourist icons like Winchester Mystery House and The House on the Rock.

[@Chris77771]

Awesome to meet you over by Mystery Mine. Keep up the great work.

[@bunnymorris750]

Thank you carpetbagger for all you do . Makes me so happy. Las Vegas fan

[@kimberlyshalaby1134]

I don't know of anyone who doesn't like Dolly. Enjoyed seeing the changes at Dolllywood.

[@nicolasbettger5747]

7:41 the way he says the “P” in poops to the camera 😂😂 I love it

[@ItsAustin18]

Love the videos Jacob. And yes, you should do water park reviews. God bless you!

[@christian361]

Great tip at the beginning with the park and ride all day trolley. Thank you!

[@mybubba1970]

PLEASE DO WATER PARKS!!!! It’d be so perfect for this summer!!!

[@jasonschannel1315]

@the Carpetbagger Jacob seeing vlogs of water park's would be awesome especially since it's about to be summer time plus with the 2 water park's that Sevierville and Pigeon Forge has now Splash country I have been to but haven't tried the new one yet but yes getting a water case is definitely worth the money and makes for even more excellent new places to try as well and as always a awesome video.

[@jackpmeadows]

Thanks for the update. I enjoyed it as always.

[@theTransAmMan350]

thanks you so much for all you great videos. you are such a down to earth person. thanks for bring me some normality in these strange times. hope all are safe!

[@SAlex-tr4md]

Great Tip on riding the Trolley !! Thank You

[@julierfstorie]

I love dollywood we only live 3 hours from there we are going for a long weekend over Halloween , we were there last October too, now we have a 2 month old this will be his first family vacation

[@Merk_snapbacks_]

Big fan man! All the way from Evansville Indiana.

[@JWCoutdoors08]

I was in dollywood when that chain fell and it hit a 9 or 11 year old in the head and it was a big mess. But I am thankful they were ok and it was not me that got hit with the chain.Stay save out there everyone.

[@bjornemccomb8262]

Love Dolly and Dollywood hope to go again this summer 👊🏻

[@caroleroseburgh1344]

Good morning Jacob 🙋🏽.

[@brittanydiaz5465]

Love Dollywood! Thanks for sharing

[@rocdocs]

Fun fact- my friends band used Kenny Rogers bus after he sold it. It was the exact same kind of bus but in black and silver and wood grain

[@DarkSt0rm009]

That's pretty sad, that halfpipe turn on Mystery Mine was one of my favorite elements! Also fun fact, The wife of Doom's original composer Bobby Prince is the chicken lady here! and Duke Nukem's VA Jon St John voices the vulture

[@fatboyjoe3767]

Mystery Mine and Barn Stormer are my least favorite rides

[@jasonbrock5983]

We were there last week. I was hoping to run into you but it looks like we were a week early. Safe travels. Ps. The lighting rod is awesome

[@UnlicensedOkie]

I’ll be going to Dollywood Later this month Glad to see what the status of Dollywood is

[@kurtporter4796]

Love dolly thanks for sharing Jacob keep up the great work

[@truckermatt4603]

That ride with the tiny cars was my favorite ride ever at Dollywood, when I was a kid I would make my dad ride this ride with me 20 times every time we went there lol ah those were good times. Also the water log flume ride was pretty sweet also and a good smoked turkey leg to finish the day out.

[@gillygillyyt55]

Oh yes, Dolly is the best. We see her a lot on TV and in person (pre Covid) over here in the UK 🙂

[@macw2234]

Marvelous. Thanks Jacob Greetings from the Netherlands

[@melanietroutman3905]

I love Dolly 💘. I don't know anyone who doesn't like her either. Great video Jacob.

[@shady8818]

Carpetbagger on a waterslide I'm here for it

[@MikeWeiner]

Oh! In your signoff, you missed the opportunity..."Helps keep this boat...afloat!" :)

[@melissagillespie5211]

Jacob your awesome all your video take your viewers on the adventure with you I always feel like I’m right there with you as you talk about the adventure and explore each adventure I love your video so much their awesome keep up the great work !!!

Ahh I just missed you! We were there the Monday and Tuesday before Memorial Day. Heavy crowds but got a ride on most of the attractions, beautiful and the food at aunt grannies was great!

[@jimbos7228]

Going up to pigeon forge next week. Trailer camping and all, gotta keep my eyes open for the mythical carpetbagger

[@totalvamp792]

Blazing Fury is my favorite ride. I always ride it no matter what.

[@fierydawg5888]

I do agree with you my friend. Blazing fury will always be my favorite ride

[@dannyberkebile5952]

Awe man I’m heading down next week man I wish I could have seen you down there 😭

[@iponedu5296]

Im right there with you on the blazing fury, one of my favorites!!

[@rebeccaw68]

Good point. I have never heard of anybody disliking Dolly Parton. That is a feat in itself especially being a celebrity for so many years.

[@lion.7460]

The carpetbagger in splash country would be so cool. Ive heard of other waterparks in Tennessee that would be fun to see as well.

[@Quacking-Goose]

never too old for toilet humor

[@sewashburn0529]

I was there on Saturday 6/5. Sorry I missed you! Looking forward to another meetup soon.

[@memberberry2728]

Seeing you in a speedo and a floaty looking like cousin eddie from vacation movies, I’m thinking water parks are a most. 👍

[@mermaidzoephiahart]

Must*

[@scottthomas6202]

Everyone I've talked to that's been to Dollywood loved it. Haven't been there myself. Attempted it once years ago, but traffic just stopped...I mean stopped,,, at the turnoff to Sieversville. I wound up going to the Smoky Mountain Knife Works...

[@gmed2]

Great tip about the trolley!

[@thunderbird233]

Enjoyed this very much, really enjoy your narration. ty!

[@HeidiDepp1989]

Would love to see the Carpet bagger tour of water parks, it would be amazing!

[@blstravlr]

Very Cool Jacob love it I been to Dolly’s Pirate Show in Myrtle Beach lots of fun. Your the best

[@medicatedmenorah]

The top bunk was Judy Ogle’s. She has been Dolly’s best friend since they were in grade school.

[@drewtongol8066]

Watching from the Philippines. 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

[@kristencarlbon4561]

She is an amazing Person. also love your videos ❤️❤️

[@slashvortex7397]

The yellow hot rod was in American Graffiti and the car you were in on that ride was a red 1959 Cadillac

[@Taikofan04]

We’re actually going tomorrow so I’m glad I know what is and isn’t open

[@kingali-el4416]

"It was snappin ppl's heads back oh that's a bit graphic, it made ppl's heads uncomfortable"😂😂😂

[@morty105]

I always wondered why Jacob avoided most of the Dollywood rollercoasters like the plague.

[@annking8633]

We all agree, Dolly rocks. Love her so much.

[@grfeld84]

I would like to see some water parks! Just to see all the different slides and rides! Love your videos!

[@micmagellan5689]

I love your intros positive vibes. From the South! 😂 the great American adventures...

[@christines4880]

Just watched a different video about Dollywood. Next time you go look for old timey signs bill board styles on buildings. They represent employees that have worked there for 30 years. Great video! Thanks for taking me on your journey 💛

[@originalredneckgirl]

Speaking of the 5 and dime, You should have went downtown Branson to their old 5 and dime, still the way it was years ago, you can buy all those things you used to could buy in the old 5 and dime right there in down town Branson

[@wildsmiley]

Absolutely do the water parks, just remember to swing over to my neck of the woods and go to Water World near Denver. I still have such fond memories of the park, though I haven’t there in more than thirty years. And you’re nuts, log flumes and river rapid rides are the best amusement park rides ever, it’s fun to get soaked. You’ve just gotta ride em.

[@xzodicdripz2134]

jacob you should start going to all the amazing waterparks around the states

[@candysmith8724]

Schlitterbaum in New Braunfels, TX #1 in the nation

[@justinmurray9854]

Yes on the waterparks. Not as people do them, and they are always interesting.
