You with the 5 dollar footlong Jesus as we call him locally, was the absolute highlight of my week! The waving from the foot was priceless. The butter Jesus was struck by lightning( I know there’s a joke here) years ago. Glad to see you in my area. Safe Travels!

[@unklejohn8575]

“Bring it in Jesus”.

[@jamesmcintosh2750]

I was coming to say that myself lol

[@tylerdavis127]

I call him "Yea Big Jesus"

[@MsLevesque7]

The jacket you had in question that was framed in the Elvis section was the jacket Elvis was wearing the day he was drafted.

[@mollysmith1226]

😮 that's really cool

[@loboandthedog]

My mom used to be a vendor there, 20 years ago they used to have real horses and even a zebra in the corrals and even further back than that they used to have stagecoach rides. My great aunt sells gliders there now. I always thought they added the fiberglass animals because of Jungle Jim's popularity. If you like flea markets Jacob, there's one in Brookville Indiana that's called Whitegate farms, it's open on Wednesdays from 6:00 a.m. to 12:00. It's a rural flea market, they sell livestock and a lot of antique items there's also a really large flea market in Lucasville Ohio, they do it four times a year and it's huge! Some people have to camp out just to get in! It's called Lucasville Traders day.

[@7passionstar]

My old stompin' ground! I worked a mile and a half to your left and lived a mile and a half to your right! Trader's World was one of my favorite shopping spots! Thank you so much for visiting there! Also, "Turtles druther" is the country way of saying "Turtles would rather" be at Traders World. 😂

[@kimberlyfoster7148]

This looks so fun!!!!! Thank you for taking us!!!!

[@ryanbarker5217]

there's so much you can do when you get off that exit.

[@Jane_Dow]

Jacob, you need a photo album of all the statues & signs you've taken a picture with. :~)

[@nadiaborzacchini6858]

I love how humble you are I'd love to meet you one day. Your videos make me smile your a good time and part of the fam here

[@Jarvel5]

Trader's world is a great place to find stuff.

[@caroleroseburgh1344]

Good Afternoon Jacob and Jennifer 🙋🏽.

[@user-si9ui7vd3v]

Loved this episode that flea market was something else happy travels! Looking forward to tomorrow.

[@loriwalker5922]

Good seeing you at Traders World. I have been there several times. I used to sell stuff at Turtle Creek Flea Market across the road. LOL Cool seeing the Pop up Elvis Museum. I have never seen that there before. When my Dad was in the Army. Elvis was coming into Germany. When he was leaving. I look forward to seeing where you went to today.

[@ryanbarker5217]

i used to sell at turtle creek, too, on the outside back when it was fun.

[@jjennnaayyyyyyy5729]

RIP Touchdown Jesus.

[@unklejohn8575]

Went from “Touchdown Jesus” to “Bring it in Jesus”

[@BehindtheReel1964]

Jacob, you’re a class act. Keep doing what you do.

[@brianshell4111]

Turtle Creek is another huge flea market on the other side of rt 75 towards Monroe. It's not called that anymore but those two flea markets played off each other. Monroe is my home stomping grounds

[@dragonosx]

Yes- it's called Treasure Aisles now, but the last time I was there, there was still some turtle imagery from when it was Turtle Creek.

[@sues8657]

I love Trader's World! We used to stop by nearly every year, used to be more old stuff rather than new. They used to have a live zebra back in the 90's Thanks for sharing!

[@llliden7724]

Good morning! Hope Ohio treats you better this time around.My daughter lives near Traders World. I get most of my gifts from there from her. Fun place to shop!

[@StevefromOhio1972]

Good stuff Jacob. My brother and sister-n-law used to set up outside at Trader's World and sell things years ago. Trader's World just isn't what it used to be in it's heyday before the internet and ebay put a giant dent in the Flea Markets sales. Touchdown Jesus was struck by lightening because they did not have him properly grounded. The current Jesus statue is grounded right and should not suffer the same fate. I am glad you got some rest and enjoyed some Skyline Chili. Other places in Cincy to get chili is Gold Star, Blue Ash Chili and Camp Washington Chili.

[@BennyLlama39]

Maybe they grounded the second one as the proverbial Hail Mary play to keep it from getting fried again. 😀

[@ryanbarker5217]

i sold on the outside a bit, but i used to really do turtle creek before it caught fire and changed. made a lot of money there.

[@lauriemathon7074]

You put alot of effort into your videos❤ you make things fun for sure. I appreciate you Jacob!!!!!

[@nurseydebdeb8539]

That place was huge, but there are people probably still wandering trying to find the exit!!! How's rosebud handling I always love the smell of a new car, it always sends happy endorphins to my brain!!! Lol. Drive safe love your videos!!!

[@bg199083]

Trader's World is a very great place to explore and find a LOT of stuff. Hope you have many great travels Jacob!

[@lissachocolate]

Turtles would druther be at Turtle World. Across the highway is another flea market that used to be called Turtle Creek (now Treasure Aisles) flea market, kind of a dig at their competitor at the time. I’m glad you enjoyed Skyline Chili, lots of out-of-state KZbinrs make fun of it and dislike it. You can ask for a small 3 way to still enjoy and cut carbs a little. People make skyline dip at home, get a disposable aluminum pan, cover bottom with spread out block of cream cheese, pour warmed chili over that and cover with mild shredded cheese and bake until cheese melts, eat with tortilla chips. Delicious!

[@davidbowers521]

Alternate take on the turtle quip - I always took it as a cheeky reference to their competition - there used to be a Turtle Creek flea market (now treasure aisles) right across the interstate.

[@suemoo22]

That’s right, I forgot about that!

[@FrankensteinLover]

I loveeeee this Flea Market, its never ending. I go there to add to my Frankenstein/Universal Monsters Collection and they never disappoint.

[@CaseyB]

"Druther" is short form for "would rather." An offshoot of this is the phrase, "if I had my druthers." First time I heard it was in the Primus song, "DMV."

[@Crowified]

Primus sucks

[@lonewolf31337]

I love traders world! Great place to spend hours looking around

[@bonniec1765]

Love your adventures! I get the whole atmosphere feelings. The sights, the smells. Thank you so much for sharing your travels.❤

[@matthewfarmer2520]

Good morning Jacob, while your in Ohio don't get stuck or stranded lol like the last time u had car trouble. I know now u have brand new car, but things can happen. Take care and thank you for sharing were you go and the places you visit. 🤓📸👍

[@TACTiviTYShow]

Good to see you in my city again! I hope you are enjoying it! Wish you the best Jacob!

[@superrin8980]

If you’re looking for more Ohio places I can’t help but recommend Carriage Hill, Armstrong Air and Space museum and Foy’s Costume shops!

[@ryanbarker5217]

loveland castle, king's island, carillon park, and calvary cemetery. might as well stop by the hamburger wagon in miamisburg, wright patt. it's not like there's nothing to do here, but 'some people' want to think we're some flyover area.

[@jeffreyrigged]

the elvis stuff i think was in the pigeon forge musuem at one time. I wondered where it all went after it closed.

[@markteicher5785]

I'm from Troy,Ohio, and live near Tampa, Florida now,and I miss the Skyline Chili restaurants. Nice coverage of Traders World

[@mattweaver8197]

I worked down there for a little over 5 months back in mid 2000's and loved visiting there. Definitely Shocked to hear about the Butter Jesus. Was always amazing driving by and seeing it. Safe Travels and keep it between the lines. 😊

[@mariehendrick7173]

What an amazing collection of everything...very Interesting.. Hope you are keeping well XXX

[@amyallen5854]

Those plushies with the camera head are from a video game called Skibidi Toliet and the only reason I know that is because of my 11 year old son lol.

[@LostDepot]

I almost went to Traders world on Sunday. It's nice to see it from a perspective from someone who hasn't ever been there.

[@psychicmediumchristiesadler]

We haven't been to Traders World in so long! It's a great place to stock up on high dollar perfumes and colognes for $25. And Skyline is the best!! Great video!

[@gothichomemaker9511]

My son upon seeing the new Jesus staue: I can't believe it's not butter!

[@silverghostcat1924]

🤣

[@TikiRainbows]

That place is awesome, looks to be quite a great selection of fiberglass beasts

[@angelamclaughlin4918]

I grew up with my grandparents selling fish to Jungle Jim for groceries, and my mom having me help hunt for Rookwood, and Roseville pottery at the outside Traders World booths.

[@dragonosx]

Glad you went to Traders World! I haven't been there in a few years and have been meaning to return. Always fun to look around, it can take hours to get through the whole thing.

[@francescar9845]

“Little House on the Prairie” is one of my favorite TV shows. I would highly recommend it. It’s such a heartwarming family show! ❤

[@BryanH63]

The "pig man" is from the movie "Motel Hell" (you would love it)... Farmer Vincent dons a pigs head in the final confrontation.

[@marystewart1125]

Meat Meat, A mans gotta eat.

[@suemoo22]

I remember that movie. 😬😱

[@bayfox1235]

Great cult movie

[@warmlantern0000]

My uncle was in Army with Elvis . he said he was just a kid but very humble. He never acted like he was famous.

[@JennDoe420]

Ahhh! This is my local flea market. My boyfriend was at the same flea market on the same day! We call that Jesus "5-Dollar Footlong Jesus." I've never heard it called "Hug Me Jesus" unless that's its official name.😅 That Skyline is right around the corner from where I work, so that's my frequent lunch spot!

[@suemoo22]

My parents used to say that saying No mun, no fun, your son…

[@southerncharm693]

I was just there a month ago visiting family and that place is huge inside! I had gotten a lot of great deals and the ice cream was delicious. I seen everything ya showed in the video and loved reading the signs above as well. Oh ppl setting up outside now as I’ll have to make another trip just to walk around outside now. You can see some pretty cool, neat stuff at Traders World Flea Market, in Lebanon, Ohio. Enjoy the hunt! lol ♥️

[@BanazirGalpsi1968]

Love the green t Rex in the beginning

[@HiddenJackpots]

Trader's World looked amazing! I've never heard of Skyline Chili but it looked pretty good! I need to get traveling!!

[@lisafreeman4222]

Awesome video

[@zcaders]

Pretty close to me. Live seeing you go to places I've seen. I've passed that Jesus so many time. Love the videos. Your a must watch every day.

[@torta31]

This Video made me so smiles today!

[@dianadelahaye7660]

Love places like that!

[@unklejohn8575]

I think that second gorilla was a bootleg General Ursus, if you look good, he’s wearing a helmet.

[@robbiwilhelm3780]

Love the video. Love all your and Jen videos.

[@functionatthejunction]

Man I love flea markets!

[@creedysgirl]

No one does night skies like you do.

[@thehostwiththeleast7184]

What a trip to see people talk about this as a kid we used to have to commute from Hamilton to Cincinnati so we used to go here all the time and seeing the big butter Jesus before it got struck by lightning and was rebuilt to the 5-dollar footlong Jesus and seeing traders world is such a blast from the past and I'm glad to get confirmation that it wasn't a childhood fever dream

[@suemoo22]

Oh wow, the Jesus statue is ginormous!

[@syedhamidi5643]

😂 "only Jesus can do that" 26:03 . Also the flea market is sooo huggee. Thanks jacob for covering the place for us.

[@suemoo22]

Hey you both! I love Trader’s World, I’m around 60 miles from there!

[@allensherrill850]

You should take one of those giraffes. I’m sure they won’t miss one! 😮 actually take two. 😂

[@AdamDavey145]

Hi Jacob the carpetbagger I like your channel and vlogs keep up the good work 😊👍😎

[@jeanettenance1366]

Yay🎉 👋😁 hello from Springfield Ohio!

[@deb9160]

Jacob that sign meant Turtles would prefer being in Turrtles world than Traders World lol

[@lauriemcewen7156]

Jacob..Do you know about WKRP in Cincinnati? TV show? Great sitcom. I read where the building is still standing. Would love to see it

[@applevalleyhillbillygarden1093]

They should call the cabin "Little House On The Parking Lot". One of my friends dad's, was in the same unit as Elvis in Germany. He had some interesting stories to tell. Basically, he said Elvis got a lot of special treatment .

[@mikethrash3544]

It comes from an old saying. "If I had my druthers" That basically means If I had a choice I would be doing whatever

[@CaryUSA2007]

Ack! All the wrestler action figures made me smile 😃 Too cool 😎 Love flea markets and swap meets. Always such interesting things, and people, at those places. We have a bunch of flea markets here in AZ that are pretty impressive. Fun times.

[@emmytonge8089]

I love flea markets

[@lewistonmaineiac]

Thanks!

[@edithcunnagin]

Hi Jacob you are in my neck of woods I live about 50 minutes from there. It's a great flea market glad you enjoyed your Ohio visit

[@williamallen7348]

Still from the skibighty toilet.

[@RockinRobinBird_RB]

Hi Jacob. Very interesting. Really enjoyed ths one. Loved the Traders World. That would be a place i would go as often as possible and spend hours walking and looking around. Loved the fiberglass figures outside that draw people in.

[@garywarren-gh8os]

Greetings from Poteet Tesas. Little House and the Prairie was a set of books by Laura ingalls wilder first the tv show was vast on them.

[@JJ66773]

those plushies at 6:15 are from (Roblox doors) (rainbow friends) (garden of ban ban) and (skibidi toilet) and (digital circus) (puppy playtime) IDK if you have heard of any of those

[@susanmartell3131]

I thought it was so funny seeing Elvis Presley pill bottles😮

[@allensherrill850]

Flea market? I didn’t even know that fleas were bought or sold 🤔

[@mollysmith1226]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@paulfuryes203]

Great video looking forward to Transworld safe travels my friend and take care.

[@brittylew]

You captured the whole dirt mall experience! I grew up going to Trader's World my whole life, so I would know!

[@dekelly7726]

Don’t Forget about the Large Flea Market in ShipShewanna Indiana

[@susanmartell3131]

Cloves and nutmeg are added to the chilli jacob❤

[@mollysmith1226]

I didn't care for it at all

[@talfacprez]

Fun Video! Loved it.

[@DougPlummer]

We call him 5 dollar footlong Jesus.

[@barbaraboeckman1510]

Hey! I have sat up many times at this flea market. It's where I'm from. Live in Hebron ky now; nothing like this place in or anywhere near Hebron! Enjoy! Go to Treasure Isle, too!

[@wesbrackmanthercenthusiast4695]

Huber tractor museum please I can't go and I'm enjoying these places through your travels

[@tomday1318]

If heading north Ohio. East side 10 covered bridges. Cleveland Christmas movie house, multiple things there. Cool West end market -old open building market variety of things and food. Sandusky has Cedar Point starts may has the most coasters. Coasters tallest, wooden, water. Theme areas...Plan a trip... go from lighthouse to lighthouse on Lake Erie. Just suggestions

[@CCcastro336]

I would love to go to Traders World. That was amazing. Thank you for sharing this! Great video!

[@gretchen8888]

Skyline!!!🍝🌭🌯. One of the things I miss the most in Ohio.

[@user-cu8sn7cl8s]

Cool place to go. I live in Ohio and never heard of it. Thanks for the fun video.

[@djpanther77]

Can't believe you were right here in my neck of the woods. One of my favorite places to go during the weekends at traders' world You may have missed it, but they have the best fried Chicken and fudge in Ohio And it's been a while since I've been there. The elvis museum as new It's the first time i've heard of it

[@elf5012]

Thanks so much for a fascinating video. That the lightening struck the Butter Jesus statue is rather upsetting. This was a great trip.

[@lisaendress724]

I've been there many times through the years. Pretty cool place!😊

[@unclesham5507]

The plaid jacket was given to a fluke Holland at a car dealership one day when Elvis went in to look at new cars. Pretty interesting story noone knows about. He just gave it away.

[@unclesham5507]

It's from approximately 1955-56.

[@aspateer]

TOUCHDOWN JESUS! he ws soo much cooler than the one there now.

[@alliekuma4234]

I absolutely remember the Boogeyman and his eating habits. Lol This place reminds me of Gibraltar Trade Center in Michigan when it was open. You never know what you'll discover at a flea market. 😊 Thanks for this relaxing and interesting video!

[@GabrielleTollerson]

Love Trader's World!!

[@ruruo6890]

6:10 They are from “Skibidi Toilet”!!

[@angelamclaughlin4918]

My friends run the Coca Cola booth! They are amazing. :)

[@ryanbarker5217]

awesome, that's right down the road from me! been meaning to go, but waiting for the weather to be really nice to enjoy the outside vendors, where i would sell now and then.

[@sharonhutchins5784]

Col Parker was a fraud. He used Elvis. And Elvis felt an undying loyalty to him because he felt Col Parker was the reason he got discovered. He was never a Colonel and wasn’t even from the U.S. I remember when I was young, my mom and dad expressed extreme disdain for Col. Parker’s mismanagement of Elvis’ career and money. I was 17 when Elvis died. Mom and dad were both devastated. His music is timeless. How have you never seen Little House on the Prairie? It’s such an iconic piece of American tv. You’ve got to watch at least ONE episode!!
