TDW 1526 - Forgotten Failed Indoor Theme Park

[@adamthewoo]

Thanks for delving into the overwhelming world of Dragon Con with me . Trying to get to a couple other downtown things outside the convention but the black hole of nerdy is strong. Only another day or so and back to basics

[@jackiecolin515]

DragonCon makes for some of the best people watching ever! Thank you for allowing us to come along. My husband and I love watching your videos!

[@antisketch2274]

the cartoon network bears thing is a show called we bare bears and the show is located in San francisco....where u currently am

[@antisketch2274]

+random nobody I am

[@karenlindsey5988]

I love seeing the different costumes! I used to love Alf! I named my Guinea pig after him. Haha

[@robertholtz]

That was crazy busy over there. Stay safe my friend.

[@Frazzzld]

I feel sorry for the people who work in those hotels. Holy crap that's a lot of people! Thanks for braving the crowds and taking us with you on this journey, Adam.

Sid & Marty Krofft - The Best Thing to Ever Happen to Saturday Mornings!

[@Thomas116-m2n]

You're making me feel nostalgic. My buddy worked in that building and we'd meet there and eat at Chick-Fil-A in the food court before heading to a Falcon's game. We'd all go down to DC for the day and it wore us out, but it's great fun. We were wagering on FB about where you were headed next. Many guessed Disney World with Tim.

[@Caderic]

That is way to many people for me...at least for Dragon Con or the like. But I'm glade you took the time to show us. Thank you Mr. The Woo.

[@adamthewoo]

its out of control

[@jillgarlick2122]

Couldn’t possibly do that, but it is interesting to see, especially relaxing back in my lounge.

[@robomaster53]

Adam, I use to work for the person who designed the Fantastic World of Sid & Marty Krofft. I helped him put together a Documentary DVD on it's history. It was a coll project to work on. His name is Stephen P. Ehlers.

[@ItsAllForYouDemon]

The Sid & Marty Kroft part was amazing. Very cool. Thank you for filming these.

[@kszeigler]

Thank you for letting us hang out with you everyday!

[@samwasteaway9852]

Adam, thank YOU for bringing us along. Your daily vlogs are a positive part of our daily lives, something we look forward to. So thank you Sir for what you do.

[@adamthewoo]

thanks for watching

[@bonniebrown6960]

I never heard of this before . I never know the store about H&R puffnstuff story either and I live in GA . Thanks for sharing that .

[@MrJgp2012]

Thanks for sharing the DC adventure! Btw, I've started watching TDW going back to day 1. I'm truly amazed that you've been posting a vlog everyday for over 3 years. You have traveled to soooo many places. Remarkable!

[@BeardedApeDad]

Thanks Adam for helping us see the world through your eyes. I never heard of places like pigeon forge or heard of dragon con until your videos. Now I have some vacation ideas. Found you and Justin Scarred on KZbin about a year ago and have watched you both almost daily with my wife and kids. Keep up the great work!

[@dennissmith5807]

I have so many memories in the Omni/CNN center. Ran Into Ray Harryhausen in 82 or 83. I first saw The Beast Master at the theater that is no longer there. The Last Battle of Atlanta was in the Omni before it became the Phillips Arena.

[@adamthewoo]

very cool !

[@myfamilymatters]

Wow! That was unbelievable. I've never seen that many people in any one place, in my entire life. Truly amazing Adam. I don't think that we could have done it. You are a real trooper, to endure the crowds, for your fans.

[@m3trooper]

I've officially become addicted to your videos, and have donated to the cause 😊

[@adamthewoo]

thank you m3 . Glad you enjoy the videos

[@francinescott5686]

Don't forget a T-shirt or two , lol

[@maryclisham7021]

Glad you're having fun. Just looking at the crowds invoked anxiety in me. Love you too!

[@rparret]

Awesome coverage of this event Adam. Thanks for bringing it to us.

[@bradtrounson]

It might be just that I am sick with a cold right now but dude that was awesome. Your videos are getting better!!!! I enjoyed the old exploration ones of closed down theme parks as well but your videos lately have been great.

[@asbrand]

Thanks for the video again, Adam! Got a big smile on my face when you filmed the parade, and the truck with the "KISS" chicks rode past. The one standing up, giving a big thumbs up is a friend of mine... :-D Have fun at the rest of the con!

[@TommyboyGTP]

Haven't been to ATL since the early-mid 90's when my dad lived there. It was crazy back then. He used to get me cheap flights from Jax to Atl to go visit him. Good times, but yeah even when there isn't a convention going on it's a busy town. Thanks for sharing!

[@JamesAllmond]

It's not forgotten! All of us who work there know about it and the tour even mentions it! There even used to be an ice skate arena that was turned into a sunken studio where the atrium is now! Sid and Marty, where are thee? Enjoy Atlanta, couldn't get me near it this weekend, and I really do work in CNN Center... where the no photography signs are there is generally a studio right behind the glass, you were ok videoing in the public areas...

[@adamthewoo]

very cool thanks for the info

[@Sokatiiee]

Looked at the comments to see if anyone who has been on the tour/ worked there said this! :) Glad you stopped by!

[@ebob1967]

Part of the opening to the Krofft Supershow was filmed in there. As I understand it, the theme park was expensive and downtown Atlanta in the 1970s was not a safe place for people to bring their families.

[@peapicker]

I feel like I am on vacation when I watch your vlogs. Super job, Adam. Thank you! Brightens my day.

[@veronicakristopeit3731]

Missed a couple of days of TDW, all caught up, but felt lost. Keep up the work learning a lot.

[@Jessicanyc]

Kudos to you for handling all those people and madness , I would be having extreme panic attacks !

[@Dewydew10]

So much delight for the eyes! Dragon con is on my bucket list for sure. Thanks for sharing the experience with us Mr Woo!

[@griffinartandairbrushing3174]

You may enjoy the "Atlanta Movie Tours". :0) I have not been on it, but looks interesting! Have fun Adam! Thanks for the videos!

[@tammyosborne312]

Thank you for always thanking us! Have a happy Sunday !

[@jessicak8997]

Love what you do, Adam! Keep keeping on! You are loved!!! 😘😘😘

[@brucebasil4164]

Thank you for these videos. Can't get enough. Thanks for what you do so well.

[@sarg5793]

wow dragon con looked intense! not sure I could have handled the crowds. thanks for braving it for us and taking us on the journey. can't wait to see where we are going next! happy travels x😊

[@shaolincruz2860]

will ALWAYS STICK WITH YOU adam always have always will,its not just a channel to me its a way off someone's life that inspires me in every way keep it up bud really hope to meet you one day here in Florida,👊 see you in the next vlog

[@RuthyD]

Falcor within the first minute? Absolute perfection! That is two days of Neverending Story characters in a row! Thanks, Adam!

[@pimmer]

Stories of defunct amusement parcs are great! Thanks Adam for making my day again.

[@Kempever]

Lovin the Videos it was so good to See Cody it made me a little nostalgic for the old videos, Stay Safe have fun enjoy the holiday.

[@adamthewoo]

the good ole days

[@MsWDWFAN1]

Dragon Con is crazy! I definitely wouldn't be able to handle the crowds! Atlanta is crazy enough as it is! Enjoying your vlogs Adam! You're passion for what you do really comes through! This is your calling. Keep doing what you do!

[@aprildaniels357]

Thank you ..That was so much fun. Since I have found you, I have been soo many places I otherwise would have never seen. Ty...You are #1 in the world of Utube.

[@manchieros]

My grandmother used to take us to an indoor amusement park called Peppermint Park in South East Texas. It was a bunch of rides in an old grocery store. It's long been closed but I'll never forget that place.

[@paulAshtonAKAAsh]

Hi adam thanks for sharing your experiences with us loving every minute of them highlight of my day

[@lockudlad]

Another look at a world I doubt I'll get to see. Great video Adam, keep it up as long as you want to and enjoy it all.

[@jasondore4671]

Just want to say thank you for letting the people like us that dream of being in your position, live the adventures through your videos. If not for you, "The Woo", we would not be able to see and experience so many places. Side note, The reason I personally choose to live vicariously through you, is the kindness that always festooned through your vlogs, it's just majestic. I'm slowly adjusting my life to soon start my own vlog. With that being said, if your ever in the nether regions of South Louisiana, let me know and I will show you a few of my secret locations that only a couple lucky people know of. Stay safe at Dragoncon. Vlog......Over.

[@masonteague1900]

I can tell you exactly why the world of Sid & Marty Kroft closed. It sucked! They basically only had about 3 rides and no real theming. I remember going down to, what is now, CNN Center to go to the amusement park and to go ice skating. I am a native of Atlanta and definitely old enough to remember it all.

[@BBsAdventures]

Wow I was at the CNN Center months ago and didn't even know it was a theme park - Nice information adam !!!

[@rangerkillertiamat6705]

Wholly Bat Cave, Wonder Bread! I cannot freakin believe you posted this Adam. I was born in 69 and my whole life I remembered this theme park, but alas, it was like a dream memory. I could remember it but because I was so young, I didn't know if it was really there or a dream. Right where your finger was pointing near the globe there was a dark ride, at the top of the escalator. This place was trippy to say the least! At least now after all these years I know that I am not crazy and this failed Sid and Marty Krofft Park really existed. I can truly once again "Sleep Well"

[@Merc-vv3de]

That's a lot of people, bet your ready to get back on the road! Love the videos and the petunias gets me everytime!

[@ebk197]

watching everyday, been watching for years, keep up what ya do Adam me and my wife love your videos!

[@RideFaster]

Pretty much one of the only REAL bloggers left....doing what I wish I could do everyday....live life!!!

[@davidfoose5899]

1526 vlogs without missing a day! That is freakin' impressive!

[@JaxsonDiesel]

I was just watching some old videos and I forgot how funny it was when you rode down the slide and crashed into oblivion. No joke, my stomach feels broken cause I laughed so hard.

[@tinarowena]

I remember HR Puff n Stuff! I watched it when I was little. There is no way I could spend time at Vid Con. Just too many people. Way too crowded! Thanks for another great vlog. Looking forward to more adventures on the open road!!!

[@thefinalfrontier318]

I was scrolling through the recommended videos for this video. You have made too many damn great videos!

[@mjsmith1223]

Thank you for taking us along to Dragon Con. It's much nicer experiencing it from the comfort of my couch.

[@bradmad8346]

Yikes, the crowds would flip me out, I live in Idaho, and sometimes it is too busy here, but I am glad to see what happens outside my cave. Back in 74 Evil Knievel came here, and that was the most crazy people I have ever seen, yeah I am old.

[@oigeeeni]

Great vid Adam! Been really enjoying every day of your being back on the road!

[@patigiddens1314]

Wow it was crazy all the people!!! Got my WOO fix for the day, thanks Adam you rock!!😀

[@ClawBoss]

You're awesome Adam!!!!

[@Goldiney]

You make such great use of the word festoon. I think I will adopt it into my daily vocabulary.

[@raizedbynerdz8718]

I remember the skating rink as a kid. By the time we moved to Atlanta only the carousel remained from the park

[@justinschwendiman3242]

Adam,been watching your videos for some time.I love them.Just subscribed.

[@BillRiccio]

the body odor at that convention must be off the charts!

[@bonniekaye]

Great vlog, Adam! Those crowds would have overwhelmed me! Enjoy your time there! Stay safe. :-)

[@jeanettebyrom1289]

Greetings from the UK, totally addicted to your channels,

[@colinfrommanchestergillesp8579]

to many people better when your off on your own exploring finding interesting things keep going mate

[@jeremyh683]

Thanks for the wonderful videos!

[@pappy4075]

Though after about 2 years of following u I get and now enjoy cosplay. Thanks.

[@k.t.overton1525]

Thanks Adam. I wasn't familiar with Dragon Con but looks like a great time, except for the herds of people. lol Stay hydrated out there, as I know you will with your water bottles. The Daily Woo is part of my day.

[@mikemedlen5504]

what a great adventure...glad i found you on you tube.

[@adamsarna3521]

I love that Back to the Future shirt

[@CG-kb2ii]

The best part of waking up, is Adam the Woo, NOT Folgers!

[@dmdj7296]

That's amazing had no clue Sid & Marty had a theme park! Great tie in with the brochure!!! So interesting...

[@kerrypallier1972]

OMGosh!! crazy busy there. A lot different seeing you in that situation lol give me the open road and quiet little country towns any day. Well done Adam

[@GazmoSin1960s]

Your encounter with the unfriendly Alf was nothing short of hilarious. Asking him if he was getting all liquored up before he starts his cat hunting.... haha.

[@Robyn62NC]

I vaguely remember the 6 months this lasted. I lived nearby but it was closed before I got the chance to visit. A town is my town ❤

[@GypsyHeart2012]

Thank you Adam for going to World of Sid and Marty Krofft location.... It should have succeeded.... it wouldhave been amazing to see... plus all that great merchandise

[@WakanaDick]

My Little Dude said Awesome! We love you, too, Adam! Thank you for sharing all of this stuff with us. Personally, I'd love to go to Dragon-Con, but those crowds are just so prohibitive! This allows me a glimpse of something I will probably never experience myself. Hugs from Amarillo, Texas!

[@adamthewoo]

tell him thanks for watching

[@WakanaDick]

+adamthewoo I did. He's practically beside himself now! Thank you for making his day. :)

[@fredwhitmore3737]

Thanks Adam good memories from a long time ago

[@davidcrazyrides]

so CNN is on area that used to be a Theme Park that says so much now

[@TheMultikitty8]

im from georgia and seems like i remember people talking about that theme park along time ago..very cool..good video

[@kelsix1]

I am loving your Vlogs, Adam, they are really cool, I watch them religiously

[@thetotallyrandomadventures9265]

Good to see your coffee routine again! Ren & Stimpy, Monster Squad and Candy Corn!? Count me in! Thank you for the awesomeness, Woo!

[@ZackSeraphicOFFICIAL]

I'm so glad that I'm not hallucinating and H.R Pufnstuf actually existed.

[@pinkelefant4ever]

www.sidandmartykrofft.com/

[@josephallington6838]

Sid and Marty are my heroes its such a shame their theme park isnt there anymore

[@steffrankboit_lev5844]

Merci Adam tu nous fait voyager à tous les jours thank you☺

[@timmc6009]

That is just nuts!!!! Kudos to you Adam. They should move Dragon con to a bigger venue.

[@johnnoakes6784]

your videos always cheer me up when I'm in a bad place Adam...

[@willy7369]

I wish the historical Theme park would be there. HR Pufnstuff , Sigmund the Sea monster and the other great shows they brought to life but, an entire theme park would have been Amazing. adamthewoo Love your videos.

[@bull24471_va]

I think the people in charge of the Dragon con need to scout out a much larger Venue in the future. I have never been to one but seems to be a lot of fun! Thanks for the great video's Adam your doing a great job!!!!

[@Vampirebear13]

Love you too Adam!!! The Jay and Silent Bob Stormtroopers were a cool and unusual idea :-)

[@Helen-eq7es]

Dragon Con looks a lot of fun but all those people! Loving these daily vlogs

[@MrZashiratori]

I love cons I truly do, but the ones here all year round in FL are nice because they have cool vendors with cool people but they arent maxed out to capacity. I think a con is much more fun when u have room to actually breathe and can actually look around n meet new people. It looked like you could barely move around let alone get into the vendor room.... finally. If you're dressed up in an already hot costume n can barely move around... idk how you guys do it in there with it maxed out to capacity. hats off to ya!

[@robertmoore8076]

I got my daily dose of The Daily Woo! Thanks, Adam!!!

[@tinafern]

It's pretty cool to see videos of dragon con and see people who I've watched on KZbin for a while go to places near me. Feel pretty sad as an Atlanta native for never going.

[@rileyodonald3034]

Makes me happy to see so many Dawgs fans in one place other then a stadium, GO DAWGS

[@HeyHoHolly]

Out of curiosity I watched last years vlog and guess what. It happend to be the day I subscribed to the daily woo.

[@ginamaria2579]

Love these vlogs !

[@adamthewoo]

thanks Gina

[@BrendanTheGent]

Adam runs on Dunkin. New dunkin donuts slogan lol this is great, looks like these past couple days you have been having some amazing fun

[@karenlindsey5988]

When he looked down at that guys crotch area and said " are this petunias?" I literally lost it!! Haha. That was a good one.

[@atlanticity]

festooning and majestic used in a single sentence. nicely played.

[@wipammy]

Holy cow The Krofft Bros had a theme park? Dang that would have been cool to see. Not only Puff but The Sea Monster, Bugaloos, Sleestaks... Can you imagine??? 💖💖💖💖 Thanks for that history. 👍👍👍👍👍 Looked so packed but the vendors always blow me away too. Such geeky goodness. Great drawing too !!!! Have fun today? And no costume? 😢 next year yes? 😉

[@fettkane]

love vids, going to disneyland at the end of the month, will shed a tear for you, love the tim tracker captain hook joke lol
