I can’t believe we’re at the end of “Going Home”! You’ve seen so much of my life before KZbin, but I saved a very special moment for the end. This channel began in a small dorm room during my first year of college at Michigan State University. I had so many amazing memories there, so it was an honor when they asked me to be their Homecoming Grand Marshall. It all came full circle, as I go back to the room where it happened and celebrate a truly special homecoming. Like + Comment Below your favorite video from “Going Home!

This is so inspiring as a current uni student. Nowadays so many KZbinrs don’t even go to college and then Tyler is there getting honored by his school. 👏🏻

[@kevinrogala5577]

I love that his room number was 420

[@bellak46]

I’m crying. I’m in college right now and it is such a struggle. Videos like these really help me remember that I will survive and I will be able to look back at this time and smile. Im so proud of you Tyler! 💗😍

[@theirwatchingyou2244]

Bella Kok just study and reach your goal don’t ever stop studying until you finish then you have time in your phone I just study and put study music on really helps me focus

[@davidcouch6514]

Or you won’t lol

[@BadBiscuts]

Room number is 420... Hmmm

[@HannahG-nk2mf]

Leti Mercado Our KZbin queen always knew how to have a good time

[@Kevin-vw5ho]

I loved that room 🤣

[@andreamackeypw]

I love that it took us like 4 takes to do the “Go Green, Go White” cause we were laughing so hard!! Btw Sesquicentennial Swirl is the best

[@ahoysoph]

IM SO SAD THAT THIS SERIES HAS FINISHED, SUCH AN AMAZING KZbin SERIES

[@chateau7]

That girl at McDonald's with you was pure wonder and joy all around. I liked everything about this series: it was a full menu of gratitude.

[@faithbaron2607]

I cant wait to have a successful career then go back to college and be like what upp im back

[@TheJamjam90]

I attended MSU (graduated just one year after him), and I knew a few of his friends. I don’t think I ever met him though. Watching this video brought me back memories of undergrad!

[@merritthaddock6954]

Loved this series!!! You looked so genuinely happy and I’m so glad you got the recognition you deserve!

[@fojanpris]

Love that you visited MSU. Crazy that we went to school at the same time. I was in Hubbard for a year then a sorority for 3.

[@anthonywyattStylist]

420 really??? lmao

[@savithaar2866]

this entire series was so special!! loved that we got to see so many places that you wrote about in binge.. this one is probably my favourite.. made me emotional to see how far you've come!! 💕💕💕

[@leahalfaro6714]

I just had my prom at MSU at the football stadium and just looking down on it I was like wow. If only Tyler was still here lol

[@hatorigirl1202]

I love seeing people who've left the midwest letting their midwest shine through. LA especially seems to be the kind of place you move to and start acting like it, but then you go home and you're shouting Go Green at the top of your lungs, which just feels so oddly midwestern to do and I love it.

[@sarahgeist5228]

That's because Spartans bleed green and white.

[@DisheswithLexiFullwood]

Tyler is so frickin cute. Like Him being happy is life🤗

[@CodyWhitlock]

I’m living for the new haircut! 💇‍♂️

[@alijahgopalakrishnan1039]

I loved this series! We got to see all the wonderful places that made Tyler an amazing queen! I have to say my favorite episode was this one, I loved to see you smiling and see the place where it all started!

[@adristein84]

sorry i'm sooo late! loved every minute of "Going Home" especially you taking us around your hometown. this series was very heartfelt and made me laugh lots and almost cry a few times too! thanks for being your awesome self, tyler! can't wait to see what you bring us next..... making the world a better and happier place one video at a time. damn, i freaking love you!

[@ReannaRoses]

As an MSU spartan I am SO proud 💚 AND I GOT TO SEE TYLER!!! Omg thanks so much for being our grand marshal (and visiting the Wharton Center 😜) ❤️

[@dembacisse3268]

I liked the video where u worked at McDonald’s

[@arihyonaorosco981]

my step mom went to college with you! her names kristy deloof, (now orosco) when i first told her i watch your videos a few years ago she told me she knew you & i couldn’t believe it! i would always get so happy/jealous when you used to like her facebook photos

[@kelseynuthals9823]

Loved this series! And I love that you never forgot your roots 💕 you are such a kind, down to earth soul!

[@cara_skinner]

I can’t believe the series is over 😔💛 I love this whole series so much, it was such a good idea and I love itttt

[@Rayowag]

I loved the video of you going back to your high school and meeting all the teachers and students 😊 But this was also so cute!

[@naff_tm]

This made me smile from ear to ear the whole time. So proud of you, Ty!!

[@d4nny-san130]

Lol i can't believe that it's the end of the series. The Going Home home series has made me smile and cry, because it's making me think of my own reunion. We don't have them here in the UK but shockingly i've just realised that it's 14 years since finishing high school and in 3 months it's 10 years since i finished college. I wish we had reunions here otherwise i would go to one :( Love you soooo much, Tyler!

[@mollygarrett5838]

It’s crazy to see someone so famous come from the same place as me

[@rachelwaters2244]

I liked this episode the best because I was there at the parade and you waved at me! #fanmom

[@abbykryeski2896]

I loved this series sm!! ❤️

[@JoshuaChowabc]

You're proof how far it's possible to go! Thank you! I liked your McDonald's video! It made me go for the first time in a year....

[@rachelm1113]

AWWW this is so wholesome! Congrats, Tyler

[@audreyyu8531]

LMAOOOO HIS OLD ROOM WAS 420 ok I’ll stop

[@kreviews101]

Fun fact: I became a caller at Grand Valley State University's alumni association two years ago after you talked about it in your book! I love that job so much and am still doing it in my senior year! thanks for inspiring me, Tyler!

[@sarahmurrayy]

i loved this series too much wow. i loved this and the mcdonalds video the most. the tea guy was the highlight of the month

[@sallywhelan]

Love these videos!! Thanks for making this series!❤️

[@fatimek5198]

I loved this series so so so much and I’m so happy you did it!! In the process we learned more about you and it was just so nice to see where you’ve come from❤️ I love you so much I’m so proud of you and how far you’ve come❤️❤️

[@angelthrash1064]

this series made me so emotional because I also have such a connection with my home city. I can go around everywhere and everywhere has a specific memory to me

[@renatacolagrossi1632]

Absolutely loved your series, I think McDonald’s one was my favorite! Enjoyed seeing your past and getting to know more about your hometown and growing up into the person you’ve become!

[@r.ooooni]

I loved this series! You got so much recognition (which of course is what you deserve) and im glad u had fun with it!

[@Zoffi95]

Loved this series! Really shows how genuine and thankful you are! Good call with this whole home coming thing! V cool! ❤❤❤

[@Tara-ys3ft]

My favorite part of the series is definitely how pumped you made all the students! In multiple episodes you made so many students show spirit that they probably wouldn’t have otherwise. Oh, and also the food parts.

[@jaydenc1417]

I love this video series it's very inspirational seeing that tyler was just a normal uni student. Now Tyler is famous but he's not taking it for granted he's going back and honouring his roots he doesn't forget where he came from ❤️

[@JulietLippman]

Loved this series!! Gonna miss it

[@manateemamma4999]

Great series Tyler! Enjoyed every episode...looking forward to another series soon!

[@carleewoodard]

Gosh I love you so much!! Seeing all of these videos made me smile ear to ear!! Love you so much!!😘😘💚💚💚

[@mellovesurmomlol]

Ilysm this journey with u has been the best!❤

[@Aarb57]

i go to msu and this video just makes me love our school so much. with all of the horrible things that have been happening it has been difficult to wholly enjoy being in EL, but this helped me remember a lot of the good thing about State, so thank you ❤️

[@Madison063]

This was an very inspiring video and I'm proud of you and hope others can watch your content to realize everybody matters. Thank you Tyler!💚💙💛💜❤

[@TheLatios]

I see myself fan girling at 4:57 Lol Love you, Tyler. Was nice having you back at MSU. #GoGreen

[@Fluffycloud41]

I was at MSU as an exchange student from Sydney when you came to visit, and seeing you at all my favourite places brought back so many good memories. Thankyou.

[@slen182]

The Dairy Store is the best. I used to go there all the time.

[@machotaco9011]

[@blackvbird]

[@amysheu]

I loved this series, Tyler! It’s so cool to see just how far you’ve come since that first video. I admired you in Yearbook and subscribed early on just to see what you were up to, and what a journey it’s been. You continue to inspire me and so many others. Keep up the amazing work. ❤️

[@jennaeckenrod5797]

I love this so much! I think that it's so sweet for you to be going to these events and reflecting❤

[@videoloqui8012]

What a great way to end the series! So epic! Loved it.

[@taylorreid6158]

[@emilywalker4638]

This was the best series ever! It was so amazing to see your experience, thank you for sharing it xx

[@alejot9]

Absolutely love this series and hope you do more like this!!!

[@rachelbraun1246]

This series was one of the best things you’ve done.. loved it and love you!!

[@shelbyl15]

I loved the tour of your town and this video. I have a couple of high school classmates who are at MSU, one of them you may have met at the homecoming game, she’s a cheerleader, but this was so awesome! I love being from Michigan for many reasons and having someone as famous and sensational and awesome as you be from Michigan is definitely in the top 5 of my list of why I love being from Michigan. Would love to see more videos like this from you in the future!

[@rosethorn4851]

I love this series so much and I'm so happy we got to see what made you who you are today ❤❤❤

[@pinky211996]

Watching the going home series, it's amazing to know what you did growing up, get to know you for who you are. thank you for putting it out.

[@tss6295]

This honestly made me cry my eyes out! This is something I would love to do with my high school and college when I get older. It’s so cool to think about how everything got started for you and seeing your success! This video is definitely my favorite 😊

[@gabrielrexiel7661]

I'm crying. I loved watching the series. Lots of love from Finland. :)

[@kurtsiecolferites2160]

I love that even though you’re famous now you’ve never forgotten your roots. This was a great series, thanks so much for sharing it!

[@aino8958]
