I haven't been there in a while, but my mom used to bring my brother and I there a lot. I was born in 2001. I vividly remember when it was Camp Snoopy. I even had a birthday party there. A couple actually. Last time I went was Summer, 2019. I'm sadly too old and a bit too chubby to ride the rides these days.

MOA has a lot to do. The next time I go I want to check out the aquarium. Thank you for watching! 😀

[@alexslusher16]

@@MaverickHayes As of this moment in time, I guess my previous comment from 6 months ago was a lie now because back in November, 2023 my mom and I were up near the cities for Twin Cities Con 2023. Our hotel was really close to Mall of America, and one of the nights, we went to MOA for dinner. We ate Bubba Gump Shrimp. And then was pretty much walked around for a while. Got good exercise. So yes, as of late, I was there 4 months ago.

[@chriskall23]

yes i love this mall. we have gone to arcade, played mini golf. always love eating at rainforest cafe and they have so many other restaurants to try. next vist will probably do sea life i have been to the one in texas but always love aquarium. definitely used kiosk a lot to find our way around. we go visit about every couple years we are only about six hours away

i have been there literally yesterday! its crazy how you guys think this is a once-in-a-lifetime thing but for me and my family it is an annual event

[@E-dart]

For my family it’s just normal, we live in the twin cities

[@Caderic]

It's all relative, I mean, after all some 80% of the visitors are from within like 300 miles or something. That's probably not once in a lifetime for most of those. I mean, I have been 3 times and I live 950 miles away, and we will back there in a week or so. People don't go to the twin cities to go to the MOA. They go to MOA when they are in the twin cities...unless they are close enough to go "often".

Hi love the mall, But if you can I think you would like seeing the American dream Mall in East Rutherford New Jersey. I think the mall is a little bit bigger than the one that you were just in. Hopefully you will get time and a chance to go see it. If not you can check it out online I believe it has a lot more to do than the mall of America you were just in. 😎

[@MaverickHayes]

I have heard of the ADM. According to what I researched online it is a little smaller than MOA. If I ever get out to Jersey I will check it out.

[@vcentlee-theunexpectedone]

Glad to live in a state where I can go there often, but now it became unsafe with dumb people shooting and whatever else here and there on the news. It’s near the one of the airport and across is IKEA. Many like going there and like eating there even though the food court selection is is very limited, it’s ok though. I miss the good old days before many things changed at MOA. Sure miss the old Legoland a lot more and I sure miss Camp Snoopy being the theme park, and it was a lot different vibe and things there. Also some rides are no longer there. Now Valleyfair is taken over with Camp Snoopy, but is just part of it only like the kid’s section. It’s not like Snots Berry Farm. MOA is definitely my childhood. Use to go there a lot as child just to have fun, because was bored. Now still go often, but it’s just waking anymore, because buying is part of it. I kinda pretty much know my way around the mall now. Some that go there a lot since younger still don’t know their way around. It’s cool how they have many things to do there, even though I never done some of the fun activities there for, for living in a state that long since early 2000’s. It’s because it’s so overly pricy and no one would Game Over! With you. I remembered the first I went there, it was definitely wild. They even have a Walgreens and holiday gas station there, but you just can’t get gas only.

[@MaverickHayes]

Malls everywhere have become a target for shootings over the years. So sad. We enjoyed our time at MOA though. I even did a follow up video this past summer (that includes the Holiday gas station store). kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKvcdKWpq9VlqbM More MOA videos will pop up on the channel I am sure as it is one of my most requested places to vlog. Thank you so much for watching & happy holidays! 🙂

[@jessehughes88]

I can appreciate your video and awesome job getting out there and waving a camera around. I went over there to mall of America before and it was cool back when I first went to it. However, after going to new lands, I’m kind of disappointed with this mall being americas largest mall. America boasts that we are the best at everything ya know, biggest and best. The whole made in USA, I remember it used to mean the absolute best quality that you could think of. Now days I realize the ideology has faded. There are bigger and better things and sometimes made in America isn’t the quality you can get elsewhere. If you ever have the opportunity, and want to film some malls, check out Bangkok. There are over 200 malls in that province, including the 3 largest in Thailand. All 3 are slightly larger than mall of America. Then, although I’ve never been there, but I guess Iran has a mall that approx 20 million sq ft. That’s nuts. I mean i also have no desire to go anywhere in the Middle East but a 20M sq ft mall sounds pretty impressive for sure. Anyways, cool video. Cheers!

Maybe people could fly helicopters to that mall. Maybe that would save them time or reduce traffic going there. But where could they land their helicopters? Maybe there could be areas in the parking lots for helicopters to land.

[@shem217]

I bet we have to pay to park in those parking lots. Well maybe helicopter flyers would have to pay to land their helicopters there too.

[@shem217]

They must use gates and garage doors to make car drivers pay. But they would probably have to use security guards to make helicopter flyers pay. If they don’t pay, they would have to lose their helicopter licenses.
