Thank you for this video. When my dad retired, he moved to West Branson. He passed away 2 years ago. We both played bluegrass. Me the fiddle and he was an amazing guitar picker. He played there often. I have the best memories of Silver Dollar City. We started going there when I was a child in the 60's. I must admit I had some tears watching this, but it all sweet memories. What a shame the original "Fire in the Hole" is being closed for good. Thanks again. Safe travels and Merry Christmas to you and Jen. 🎄

I find it very weird that they didn't let you film the Fire in the Hole ride, especially when it's going to be closing. I could understand the new ride when it opens but... so sad not to be able to document your last ride on it. Also, seeing videos of rides has never stopped me going on them, if anything it makes me want to go on it more so I can experience it for myself properly.

I grew up near Branson, but moved away a long time ago. I am devastated they are closing Fire in the Hole and I won’t get to ride it again before it closes. 😭 The age of the ride was part of the draw for me. The park changed, added fancy new coasters, but Fire was always there. Even the Flooded Mine changed, adding the shooting gallery. I’m not sure the new Fire in the Hole will have the same character which made the original so great. And yes, the dang Baldknobbers stole Red Flanders’s pants.

Great video. Both you and Jen look like you're having so much fun. FYI, an employee of Montgomery Ward created Rudolph the Red Nose Raindeer. Fun fact the stores used to have the story available to buy each Christmas until the stores closed. My Dad used sell plumbing and heating for the store until her retired.

Hey There Jacob. I just want to say thank you for everything you do and done. I've been watching you for years. Seeing your channel grow and grow have helped me through so much in my life. I recently lost both of my parents. Sometimes the only way I can crawl out of bed and enjoy my life is by watching the adventure and road trips you go on! From Milwaukee Wisconsin and now touring the South California coast. I didn't know how much warmth Laughing Sal could bring into my heart! Merry Christmas to you and Jenny. God bless.

I was actually at SDC on the same day you filmed this. My family would go to SDC every year when we were on vacation, but I hadn’t been back to the park since I was 11. Fire in the Hole is very nostalgic for me, so I was happy to get to ride it one last time. Sad to lose a classic, but here’s hoping the new one is even better.

And according to a SDC cast member, the new ride will have a narration through the entire ride telling the story onboard the cars. There will be three main Baldknobbers in the plot, with a few additional scenes that were originally in the classic Fire In The Hole but removed for one reason or another over the years. Also according to a cast member, the burning bridge on the new ride is actually a mini hydraulic drop tower.

Finding someone that understands and likes and don’t mind what you do is important. Merry Christmas to you both and to your families 🤗🎁🎄❄️
