I recommend Jim's on South Street for Cheesesteaks. They just reopened after a fire 2 years ago.

[@WinstonArmani]

Hope you had a great time! Can’t wait for the next video

[@slytheringingerwitch]

You will have the best pressed penny collection when this year is up.

[@caroltricarico5936]

Went to Philly back in the early 70's on my seventh grade school trip. Back then the bell was not in a house of it's own and we were able to touch it. Tickets were not necessary for Independance Hall either. We went on a permanently docked ship named the Olympia. My how times have changed.

[@jamescargill4370]

An incredible penny press day. YOU HIT THE JACKPOT! 🪙🪙🪙🪙🪙🪙🪙🪙

[@sandydisneyfan8355]

Dang, just saw that Jim's Steaks on South Street reopened today and they have the phenomenal mosaic clad dining rooms on the second floor open for customers. Next time, Jacob, you need to put Jims Steaks on your list.

[@jennyvezina4551]

I love history and this was so much fun for me. Thank you!

[@Drambles77]

Awesome video, CB! Thanks. Jim's Steaks is my fav for cheesesteaks in Philly.

[@robynryan7473]

Folks can say what they will about philly, but a good cheese steak cant be argued with and will always hit the spot right. Glad you got yours Jacob! Bon appetit friend and as our motto says, "Philly, the place that LOVES you back"!

[@dinafinnan1792]

Cathedral of notradame bells

[@markzeahammer183]

Carpetbagger should sell Pig Weevils in his store. everybody wants it now.

[@YakkoWarnerTower]

Burbank and Southern California must have a lotta of good old bells lol. The bell was smart.

[@kristencarlbon4561]

I remember when I was a kid about maybe 12 or 13 you could actually touch the real Liberty Bell maybe back late 70s early 80s

[@jeremyg5907]

Philly fanatic. Mascot for the Phillies. it was written on his shirt. Lol.

[@adamdavenport6421]

Jacob I totally forgot about the most famous bell is the bell tower in broghton high school here in Raleigh nc

[@julialogeman6026]

The bell that hangs now is called the independent bell

[@rachelle6339]

I’ve ate cheese steak from Geno’s & Pat’s I’ve never tasted John’s roast pork. ❤❤

[@history_leisure]

Toledo, Spain also has a bell the broke the first time, but its so big they can't remove it

[@CherylM1959]

I found this on Wikipedia Ona "Oney" Judge Staines (c. 1773 - February 25, 1848) was an enslaved biracial woman who was owned by the Washington family, first at the family's plantation at Mount Vernon and later, after George Washington became president, at the President's House in Philadelphia, then the nation's capital city.[1] In her early twenties, she absconded, becoming a fugitive slave, after learning that Martha Washington had intended to transfer ownership of her to her granddaughter, known to have a horrible temper. She fled to New Hampshire, where she married, had children, and converted to Christianity. Though she was never formally freed, the Washington family ultimately stopped pressing her to return to Virginia after George Washington's death.

[@MichaelReynolds-ff6wr]

This country is cracked too.

[@kigsbiker]

Taco Bell is pretty famous 😂

[@nataliecrow6533]

Taco Bell is pretty famous 😂 Did Big Ben’s bell ever crack. I wonder if they made the Liberty Bell defective because they were mad we wanted our independence 🤔😉

[@jayh.3354]

Sports mascots = spascots 😅

[@mr.midnight2154]

Jacob how dare u. Dan Bell is the most famous bell 😅

[@dank7373]

1st comment

[@AwkwardAnxiousJennifer]

I never expected the words "most beloved assassinated presidents" to ever be said in that order! 😂😂 Also, I loved the shot at the end of you adding the pressed pennies to the Piggy Weavil.

[@suemoo22]

Great idea putting smashed pennies in the piggy weevil!

[@Themeparkhero]

Yeah for sure. I think that's what the monster said he built it for but man are those monsters hard to understand with their masks on lol. Takes me back to covid when no one could understand a word I was saying.

[@bryanthompson7373]

I’m surprised you didn’t run into Nicolas Cage sneaking around with a copy of the Declaration of Independence!

[@ElizabethTheUnicorn829]

😂😂😂

[@HeyItsTim]

The most famous bell in the world IS THE TACO BELL!!!!! C'MON!!!

[@brianschrier666]

Hey Big J you forgot about Taco "Bell" my guy 😂😂

[@paulfuryes203]

Great video,Jacob your getting quite the collection of penny's. Looking forward to the next, take care my friend and safe travels as always.

[@caroleroseburgh1344]

Hi Jacob 👋🏽. I hope you are having the time of your life ‼️ enjoy the beautiful weather ‼️👋🏽

[@RacerJames76]

One of my worst childhood memories is viewing the liberty bell and back in the early 90s you could get right up and touch it. A security guard told me to touch it for good luck and then angrily scolded me for cracking it! 😱 I was probably 8 years old! Scarred me for life!

[@scottyknows420]

Adam The Woo needs to take you to a baseball game. He can tell you everything and it'll be a great video.

[@kellycarroll6829]

good job explaining the Liberty Bell Jacob! 🌟💚

[@user-qw8qq2dz3w]

Hey Jacob Roll On CarpetBagger Roll On! Safe Travels Jacob.

[@mareekatz]

I'm so happy you enjoy my home state of Pennsylvania Jacob. Hoping to see you on one of visits. Safe travels as always ✌️❤️🙂

[@lesliegriffith9830]

Did you get to see the Philly Captain?

[@Retromicky82]

I find it hilarious that rocky has more merchandise than historical things and the bell 😂

[@MichaelReynolds-ff6wr]

Alot of Americans don't know about The Liberty Bell, especially the younger generations, but everyone knows Rocky Balboa!

[@Themeparkhero]

​@@MichaelReynolds-ff6wrif you think my kids know about a fictional boxer from the 80s instead of the bell you are absolutely off your rocker😂 contrary to popular belief they do still talk about the American revolution in schools and most kids are not going out of their way to watch boxing movies

[@TheVictorCruz]

Taco bell should be top 5. I kid. I kid.

[@eleanorrigby909]

Hell's bells should be in there somewhere too!

[@gillygillyyt55]

America sure has some beautiful brick buildings. Thanks so much Jacob 👍🏼

[@mariehendrick7173]

Hi Jacob super Interesting I have enjoyed this alot. So how about the lookout's bell on the Titanic that rang out Iceberg ahead.. I am not sure If It has been found however either way It's a very historic bell. !!! And that cheese steak yummy!!!!! XXX

[@kerrybeth1]

Dude, you were right by Sonny’s and you got a cheesesteak from a street cart?! No, no,no.

[@scottwebster5211]

The year of the pressed penny is really fun and exciting

[@Bifyton]

For some reason I kept expecting Philly Captain to zip by you on his scooter. Thanks for showing the bell it’s smaller than I thought it would be. I just pictured it being bigger.

[@m.hreels9822]

I always wanted to see the Liberty Bell but I hear the crowds and the lines are ridiculous

[@dannymartin1114]

So far this year I've been amazed at the variety of penny press machines.

[@craigholstine2154]

Good Morning " YA ALL " Jacob the Carpetbagger .!!

[@woeb0t]

The Dublin church bells are also pretty famous. I did a tour and they let us ring them.

[@matthewfarmer2520]

Morning Jacob 🤓📸 I've been to Philadelphia to see the library bell 🔔 in person, i been to the mutter museum in the past as well saw the old capital buildings, gone to Chinatown we eat at a Korean restaurant there. It was small lol this was in 2005 my dad and my middle brother cause im the youngest the third in the family. Thanks for sharing this. Take care my friend. ✌️

[@LinecookThorJamiethaxton]

Awesome video as always

[@MarthaJOHNSON-iu4wk]

Thanks you

[@cherylzamule888]

Hi Jacob 👋 another great video 📹 have a nice day 😊

[@nicochicago2028]

Only if the Staue Of Liberty can talk. What will it says to the Liberty Bell. "Let's Put a Ring On"

[@joegrapeape6334]

You want a bad cheese steak in Philadelphia, Hooters! but no one goes there for cheese steaks!!!!

[@janetcannon7986]

Bells of Notre Dame

[@rebeccakorejko]

This time of year there are a lot of school trips to the liberty bell. BUT there are a lot of really good museums in philly you should check out!

[@jasonazus5909]

chew your food!

[@justinemarie9483]

The true history of bells is very interesting. Thousands were destroyed and melted down to make canon balls. The frequency of bells were used for healing in the cathedrals.

[@kellybritt9098]

The Phillies fanattic is the official mascot for Philadelphia Phillies baseball team

[@TheCarpetbagger]

They are just called the phillies? Creative

[@jeffcyr2182]

At the end of the year you should show all the pennies you collected

[@loravaloo55]

what a fun way to review the year.

[@icequeen9012]

Gritty = Philadelphia flyers hockey team Philly Fanatic = The Phillies baseball team Franklin = 76ers basketball team Swoop = Philadelphia eagles football team Philadelphia mascots

[@DavidWRyan]

Back in the mid 90's, I was a cast member of the Philadelphia Towne Criers. We dressed in Colonia garb, greeted tourists, and performed skits. It was a lot of fun. So, seeing you there takes me back. The Liberty Bell was in a smaller building from 1975 in the center of the quad and The Visitors Center hadn't been built yet. It's so much better now. You should also see the Benjiman Franklin Museum. It's under ground!

[@Sparty-pi3jq]

My favorite thing crazy Philly fans ever did was, boo and throw snowballs at Santa Claus (i do believe the Easter Bunny was booed too😂). Lol I do not believe that would happen anyplace else but in Philly. Great video Jake, I love Philadelphia! (Well parts of it)

[@MichaelReynolds-ff6wr]

Why did they Boo Santa Claus? What, are they atheists?

[@Themeparkhero]

@@MichaelReynolds-ff6wr No, there is a very good article about it online for thedp, but it basically boils down to it being 1968 halftime at an eagles game when the team was probably to worst its ever been and it snowed the night before and they couldn't clear the stadium of snow. People were cold, anger and miserable and santa came out during halftime and if you have ever been to a sporting event then I shouldn't have to tell you that once sometime happens, a lot of people tend to roll with it lol, especially in Philly.

[@obligatorytraveler8292]

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! SO MUCH for having such a great and positive Visiting Philadelphia (my home city) video. I'm going to share it with everyone, I know they will love it. If you are ever back again, I can suggest all the best things! I think you'd really like visiting Eastern State Penitentiary. It's creepy even during the day on a regular history tour. And I agree with one of the other comments, if you haven't visited The Mutter Museum, totally in the Carpetbagger wheelhouse of places.

[@bluegold1026]

Other famous bells include the world's biggest: the Czar Bell in Russia. It's never actually been rung.

[@mclarkins]

@TheCarpetbagger Jacob, there is a bell that celebrates a 50th anniversary Milestone next year in 2025.That is the bell of the Famous Edmund Fitzgerald that is on display in The Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum in Paradise, Michigan not that far from Whitefish Point where the ship went down. I would go early in the season to see that bell before the bigger crowd gets there, and they have the Reading of the Nanmes and Ceremonial Ringing of the Bell for those lost in November. Yes, I'm talking about the same ship that the late Gordon Lightfoot sang about in "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald."

[@jasonrainey2288]

Hey Jacob, next time you are in Philadelphia, make sure to visit the Museum of the American Revolution. It's right down the street from independence hall. The cornerstone of the Museum's collection is General George Washington's Revolutionary War Tent. It is absolutely amazing to see. Keep up the great videos!

[@juniebugjune08]

Wow, I remember when they were still working on the President’s House. I was visiting my grandmother (I was 22 in 2016) and they were starting to build it.

[@ChristinaCalhoun]

I thought the Arlington house was George Washington's house in Arlington National Cemetery

[@Clancy619]

The Bells of Notre Dame should be in the top 5!

[@AwkwardAnxiousJennifer]

When I think of famous bells, these definitely top my list, too!

[@YakkoWarnerTower]

"Let the anvils ring! 🎶"

[@c.rogers____]

The bell tower at Caroline park in Dayton, Ohio. Which is played on special occasions!!!

[@BastianBeltazarBucks]

Jacob there is a liberty bell in our government building in Plattsburgh, NY

[@arthealawson3508]

Hi Jacob on your way home stop by Newport KY to see the Peace Bell . I've also heard of Cincinnati has a big joe bell in a church St Francis Dr Sales

[@niecey7492]

First time I came to Philly I was 2 or 3. The last time I was here it was Easter weekend when I was 15. My dad, me and 2 of my friends took a 3 hour trip up via Amtrak.

[@ghelley]

No Philly Captain ????? @ThePhillyCaptain

[@oldsouthmike65]

Independence hall is awesome & liberty bell too. Good to see Piggy Weavil getting fed.

[@rott3nappl3s]

great video, as usual. also a good reminder that all of our "founding fathers" were rich slave-owning scum. thanks for your work!

[@kristencarlbon4561]

The Liberty Bell is the most famous Bell ever made well that’s a Google says

[@richardcrainium9343]

Are you going to pinfest in Allentown Pa on Friday and Saturday all the pinball you can play for one low price!! Come have some fun

[@danielmkubacki]

Great video! The Liberty Bell is so cool!

[@johnchambers8528]

Thanks for coming and visiting Philadelphia’s historical area. Too bad you missed getting into independence hall. This time of the year is usually a good time to visit. Summer time these areas are always busy. I am glad you were able to try one of our local favorite foods, the cheese steak. In general you can get a good one at most places that offer them. Reading Terminal Market is one place with several cheese steak outlets. This is the building that used to be under the old Reading Railroad Terminal on Market Street. It is now under part of the convention center. I know you like odd items and one of them is if you enter the Convention Center from the Market street entrance you will see some metal strips in the floor. This represents where the old tracks were located in the building. Keep taking us to interesting areas.

[@suthius85]

Jacob since you're close to VA, stop by to hit up the Smithsonian museums and other museums such as the Museum of the Marine Corp.

[@ABProductionsOG1]

Did you go to Wrestlemania while you were there, if so then thats awesome! 😎👍

[@LEGENDSOFVARIETY]

The liberty bell was also rung at gorge Washington’s funeral and justice John marshal funeral when it was rung for a second time that’s why there is a crack in the bell after that they cast the bell in bronze justice John marshal was on the Supreme Court he was was my great grandfather I’m related to the liberty bell

[@JeffinBville]

When I was a kid you could touch the Liberty Bell.

[@timothybark5357]

Lmao I feel anxious on how many Jacob spend on pressed pennies 😂

[@MichaelReynolds-ff6wr]

Why does that Rocky statue have a Moe Howard hair cut?

[@mlg1783]

The RMS Titanics bell should be on that list.

[@Snowfaeriewings]

Most famous Bell would have to be Belle from Beauty and the Beast!

Great video, Jacob
