Your channel was for sure an inspiration for me to start my own channel. Also, my daughter is autistic so I do appreciate you putting yourself out there to talk about your experience. Great video as always and I can say that Kennywood is my local park and I've never rode Old Mill and had the lights come on.

The building for Kandy Kaleidoscope opened in 1970 replacing the park’s Rotor ride. During the 1970s, a burger counter was downstairs while the second floor was used as an ice cream parlor, a puppet theater and even housed an historic display sponsored by the Smithsonian on roller coasters. It’s longest lasting use was that of an.arcade (Kenny Arcade). Most recently, it was used as the locker rental area. It may be replaced as a location to serve beer possibly.

It’s funny that when the old mill got changed to Garfield’s Nightmare, it’s arguably a better ride. Had way more theming and better quality ride. It did feel out of place for the feel of Kennywood, so it makes sense that older people missed the old theme. This is one of the few times a ride got downgraded back to its older self. Still fun to go on. Nowadays I keep seeing people missing the Garfield theme lol

Found on "Kennywood behind the screams" In 1927, the Grand Carousel replaced the park's 1913 carousel. The new ride was too large for the park's original 1899 building, so a new carousel pavilion was built with iron framing, the one still there. Meanwhile, an adjacent Soda Fountain and Grill moved into the old and empty round carousel building. This structure, the park's oldest, has offered food service ever since, including the open-air "Carrousel" Food Court and, since 2014, Johnny Rockets

Fall Fantasy is when all the local high schools' marching bands come out and march in the evening parade. I did it three times, and my mom did it when SHE was in high school, in the 50''s! All the local band geeks looked forward to Fall Fantasy, because we got a day at Kennywood. EDIT: "Lee Cachot " on the tombstone is a nod to an old, long-gone dark ride called "Le Cachot." Jacob, you would have LOVED Le Cachot. It was meant to be super-scary, but basically, you just rode around on these crazy-looking ride vehicles that clacked on a chain, and you looked at vampires and stuff. It was a classic.

Featured in the great 2009 film Adventureland. Absolutely among the best parks in America. Incredible blend of old (in some cases one of a kind old) and new attractions, plus the park is on the National Historic Register. Home to the world record breaking Steel Phantom (which had loops removed and became the hilly and fast Phantom's Revenge), and yes the Potato Patch is legendary! Thunderbolt is my favorite coaster there but I love the uniqueness to the mobius layout and look of Racer. I will go to places like this and Knoebels any day over ones that are mostly just coasters. Even Cedar Point got away from a lot of classic family rides and dark rides ever since the 90s when they really started to push coasters.

Kennywood used to be better. I feel like they are changing/removing some of the older rides (which are a huge part of the park's charm) to appeal more to the younger generations, but people aren't crazy about the changes. Hence why they brought back the Kangaroo after removing it, and changed the Old Mill and Noah's Ark so they're pretty close to what they were before.

Kandy Kaleidoscope used to be Riding the Rotor, which made it's debut at Kennywood Park near Pittsburgh in 1955. The Rotor is an amusement park ride, designed by German engineer Ernst Hoffmeister in the late 1940's. The ride was first demonstrated at Oktoberfest 1949 and was exhibited at fairs and events throughout Europe during the 1950's and 1960's. The Rotor is a large, upright barrel rotated at 33 revolutions per minute. The rotation of the barrel creates a centrifugal force equivalent to almost 3 g. Once the barrel has attained full speed, the floor is retracted, leaving the riders stuck to the wall of the drum. At the end of the ride cycle the drum slows down and gravity takes over. The riders slide down the wall slowly. Most Rotors were constructed with an observation deck. The Rotor was in operation at Kennywood from 1955-1958 and again from 1965-1994. To replace it, they turned it into a Double Story restaurant. Over time, this became the Candy Kaleidoscope and lockers.

Kennywood is just one of those great historic classic theme parks.Not far in Ligoneer Pennsyvania is Idlewild Park and Storybook Forest,kind of an older historic classic Legoland type of a park for a more younger crowd.There are no shortage of attractions in the Pittsburgh are.There's a really nice water park near Kennywood Park, forgot the name of it though,I think it's called Sandcastles,not sure.

We used to have a Kangaroo (not sure what it was called, but same ride) at Waldameer Park in Erie PA. That was one of my favorite rides! Since then they have auctioned off most of the classic rides and the 1908 Mueller-Dentzel carousel animals in the name of modernization and for expansion of their water park. At least they still kept Wacky Shack. I loved Waldameer back in the old days.

I’m a Yinzer through & through. So glad you went to Kennywood. For us in the Burgh we all have special memories of that park. I went on school picnic day & Polish day with my family. Then when I had my own kids took them there. My son even worked there. You didn’t show if you rode any of the coasters. Jack Rabbit is my favorite. Thank you for sharing 😊

Hi, Jacob, my name is Alan and I reside in Weirton WV as well as a lifelong resident of Weirton. Kennywood is my home amusement park. It takes a little over an hour to get to Kennywood from Weirton, 1 hour 15 minutes, 1 hour 20 minutes depending on traffic. I really like your KZbin Channel, really interesting videos. I'm going to Kennywood tomorrow on Saturday, with some friends of mine. Kennywood is a great old amusement park. Have a great day! Take care, Alan.

Hey, Jacob! I grew up in Pittsburgh & went to Kennywood all the time as a kid so it's always great to see these visits to such a beloved, nostalgic park. Just wanted to answer your question on what that space used to be above the Kandy Kaleidoscope store. It used to be lockers where you could keep your personal belongings because of the water rides, roller coasters, etc. Pretty sure it was coin operated, too. Hope that's interesting! Thanks for the awesome content!
