I had one guest ask where the saloon was cause she wanted a beer... One wanted to know why the cave didn't have an elevator. I told her "we are terrified of elevators, we take steps to avoid them".
Last weekend was our first weekend of Fright Fest at Six Flags St. Louis, and a guest actually asked me if the Freaks Unleashed is when the Freaks come out. As an added bonus, Freaks Come Out at Night by Whodini was playing over the nearby PA as well.
My favorite answer is still the classic "no sir, this here train is made of cardboard, and we all get on it and make lots of noise and pretend" I still say that should be on a t-shirt
Right out of high school I used to work at a gas station 50yards from the toll plaza of a bridge. At least once a week someone would pull in and ask, "Where's the Tacony bridge?" "See that toll plaza there? Ask them."
I haven't been a regular viewer of your channel for too long, maybe a year, so this is the first of these "multiple people" videos I've seen that wasn't in front of the blank wall (I saved a bunch of old ones from the past when I started viewing the channel). They're just as funny with better FX! XD LMAO
Customer: Where are those lovely little eclairs I bought last week? Me: Sorry, you must be thinking of another store. We don't sell doughnuts. Customer: Eclairs aren't doughnuts, and I bought them here last week. Me: Do you mean the chocolate dipped cream puffs? Customer: NO! Eclairs. They're little pastries filled with cream and covered in chocolate, and I bought them here last week. Me: Can I show you what I think you bought? Customer: NO! You're useless. I'll find them myself. (customer storms off. customer returns waving a box in my face.) Customer: I found them, you stupid girl! Me: Oh good, you found the cream puffs. Have a nice day! Me answering phone: Hello, seasonal department. Customer: Hi. Is this the seasonal department? What I wanted to say: Nope, this is grocery. I just like answering calls for other departments for fun. Let me transfer you. What I actually said: Yes. Customer: Where is the laundry detergent? Me: Do you see the start of the grocery aisles? Follow that to the back of the store. Customer: Don't send me on a wild goose chase if you don't know! Me: Uh, I'm sorry? Customer: I see carpet cleaners right here, so laundry can't be far away. Where's the laundry detergent? Me: At the back of the store, past grocery. Customer: But I'm looking at carpet cleaner. Me: You're looking at spot cleaner for pet messes. If you turn your head to the left, you'll see leashes. If you turn your head to the right, you'll see dog toys. This is the pets department. Laundry detergent is at the back of the store, past the grocery aisles. Customer: Where are the hiking boots? Me: In the shoe department... Customer: Shouldn't they be here with the camping supplies? Because you use them outdoors? Me: Don't you use most shoes outdoors? Customer (staring at a wall of yarn): Where are the shoe laces? Me: In the shoe department... (As I'm busy feeding dough into the large industrial bun roller, wearing a visor and smock with the store's logo) Customer: Um, do you work here? (No, they just haven't caught me yet.) Customer (as she's buying cigarettes from me): I like to share them with the kids who hang out at the corner of your building. Me: I'm sorry, I can't sell these to you now. Customer: Why not? Me: You just told me these are for minors. That's illegal. I could be personally fined $2,000 for selling these to you now. Customer (pointing at another cashier): Well, can he sell them to me? Other cashier: Nope, heard everything. (customer then demands to speak to a manager) Customer: I'm looking for a makeup kit for my 12 year old. Me: You'll have to ask the associate in cosmetics. I'm confined to toys and seasonal right now. Customer: Makeup for 12 year olds should be in toys! Me: There's no makeup here. Customer: Well there should be! (I'm sorry?) Customer: This lego set is supposed to be $4 but the cashier scanned it for $10. Me: It was probably in the wrong spot when you found it. The cashier can sell it to you for $4, though. They're allowed to adjust small prices when there's an error. Customer: Are you calling me a liar? Me: No... Customer: My boyfriend saw it too when we were in earlier. It was $4. Me: Uh huh, it was probably in the wrong spot. Maybe another customer changed their mind and stuck it where they were standing. It's fine. The cashier can sell it to you for $4. Customer (calls boyfriend, puts him on speaker phone): Tell the lady you saw the lego set for $4 too! Me: Ma'am, you can have it for $4. Tell the cashier Jenna in Toys said so. (this went on for 20 minutes)
These are absolutely fantastic! I love ypyr aense of humor aand the fact that the park was willing to allow you folks the freedom to answer silly questions with silly responses!
Lol. I’ve been to Disney World a lot. And for some reason people keep thinking I’m a cast member! 😂 I’ve actually been ask where certain rides are. I’ve had people ask me where the bathroom was and I’ve had people ask me if i worked at Disney. My favorite was when this lady walking behind me in a store, I was wearing normal clothes that looked nothing like the cast members at said store, she said, “It’s a bit cold in here, don’t you think?” I didn’t respond because I honestly didn’t think she was talking to me. Then she touched my shoulder and said, “Hey isn’t it too cold in here?” I turned around to look at her and she took a step back, “Oh... you don’t work here... sorry.” Then she quickly left. I still have no idea why she thought I worked there! 🤣 I wasn’t even Disney bounding at the time, I get most of these questions when I’m bounding, so I have no idea why she thought I was a cast member. Seriously people really must get their brains sucked out by the finger scanners at Disney World because people just seem to stop thinking! So I kinda know how you feel. 😅
I'm gonna try and make the dumbest, most surreal questions I can. "Where are the bumper cars?" "When's the robbery gonna happen?" "Are kids allowed in this park?" "Why are there so many trees?" "Why is everyone dressed up so weird?" "Where's Mickey?"
I guess the "is this a real train" question comes from the fact that they cant believe you got a 70 plus year old train to work, as most of the steam trains they've seen have probably been decommissioned and no longer run and are meant for display. But when I think about it, I guess its kind of like restoring an antique car, except with much harder to get parts. And since its an outdated form of technology, you cant exactly walk into any rail yard and just up and buy a steam engine any more and very few people nowadays actually have ridden one. I am fortunate to say I have
Lol great video Sir Willow. Loved the part about the Loop. And yes it was kind of sad that they didn’t have the 20 gauge. That little pistol was way less impressive.
"Steal Your Dollar City" never heard that one before , lol! In Cali we have a discount random food store we call "Gross Me Outlet" (Grocery Outlet), I'm that girl that cracks up at bad examples in English textbooks such as "his eyes glided across the room and slid down the front of her dress", guess I'm kind of a nerd.
I just about choked trying not to laugh and wake up my grandmother. My dog actually got a little bit concerned XD I know I have asked some pretty dumb, obvious questions before, though 99% of the time when that happens, I realize it as soon as I finish asking and apologize for being an idiot haha. My grandma and I actually often ask each other dumb/obvious questions and give sarcastic answers just for fun. I had to get at least some of my sarcasm from somewhere! XD (Also, as you posed right after saying "Dude I look almost muscular", one of my neighbors bangs something and it was timed so perfectly it was like a cartoon sound effect of a buff guy showing off his buffness)
Working at Great America Santa Clara and on the train I believe every question. I would tell them "The train stays here and the station goes around the park,"
I had made an earlier comment regarding the "is this a real train" question. I stated I had imagined it comes from the fact they couldn't believe you got a 70+ year old engine to work. This question could also be rooted in the fact that in another video you mentioned the engines had come from Germany and Czechoslovakia and used to work the dock yards there. European steam engines look very different from USA Engines. Its not a common design for the USA, and because Europe is largely mountainous, narrow-gauge railways are popular there. So most European steam engines aren't gauged for US rails. Perfect example of this as well, was the old kids show "Thomas the tank engine" All of those trains are based on real British steam locomotives. Everything from the E-2 class to the A1 Pacific and in between. There are few American steam engines that still remain running today and even fewer British engines, as they've almost all been scrapped in the 1950s with the move to diesel and the small slivers that remain being bought by museums. But some of these British locomotives look like large toys, when in fact thats just how their design looks, not to mention the modifications some of the engineers at Silver Dollar City made, like converting the engine to run on diesel fuel
I worked at Knott's Berry Farm for 13 1/2 years and was a ride operator at the Calico Railroad as a Conductor loved it. But every once in a while I'd get asked" IS THIS A REAL TRAIN?" I was so tempted many of times to say "No its fake with midgets inside that are heavy chain smokers!" Never said that but was tempted. I was asked this question constantly
Or this one, "Am I going to lose everything out of my pockets?" If I was not in the mood, "Yes!" Or just simply stare at them and tell them , "GET ON!!" If I decided to be funny, "The things you hear hitting this deck are not sound effects put on this ride for your listening pleasure!"
Or one of my favorites, after they stand in a really long lines for hours... "Excuse me, what does this ride do?" I had a ton of answers to that one....
Where do I start.? Cave questions "How many miles of unexplored passages are there? , How much of the cave is underground?, My favorite was one day I'm doing a show on the old Valley theater, A guest walks up on stage oblivious to the 100 people or so in the audience, and softly says, next to an open mike, "Where's the bathroom?" I reply into the mike in my face, "about 20 feet that way." He whispers back "Thank you." I say "no problem." He walks off and I turn to the audience who are all doing an impression of the RCA dog now, and I say "Our little secret."
At Hersheypark during Candy Lane there Christmas event, I was getting off the Super Doper Loper and, since it was to cold Great Bear wasn't running. So I guess a dad thought the cars were upside down the whole time and, he was telling his kid that lol.
In all fairness, the "is that a real train?" question isn't all that silly. Unlike here in the UK, the US steam preservation movement doesn't appear to be that large, so I've seen plenty of videos on TH-cam of locomotives that have steam engine shaped bodies, but using a diesel engine underneath - or having no way of powering themselves at all. One of the "Real life Thomas the Tank Engine" videos I saw was just a Thomas shaped trailer being pushed by another locomotive. So by asking "is that a real train" they probably mean "is that a real steam train, instead of something mocked up to just look like a steam train".
You're giving them to much credit. lol When you stand anywhere near the engines, it's REALLY obvious that it's a real steam engine. :-) You might also be surprised to find how large the rail fan and train preservation communities are here in the US- and at the silliness of people asking questions as well. hehe
In the mid-197s I ran the information desk in the student center at the University. Got a lot of "where's the ..." questions which was fine. This was 5-story building. Had one kid come through w/parents who asked where the elevator to the 18th floor was. Uhhh go out that door, walk across that plaza to the 19-story building behind us - that you can clearly see because of the glass wall - and you'll find it. We had 2 campus phones on the desk (way before cell phones!) and you only dialed the 4 digit extension. People constantly tried dialing the whole 7 digits even after we told them not to. Best question ever: kid came up in a rush and pointed to the campus phone and asked "Is this the phone?"
Hi Sir Willow, boy did we ever hear a ton of dumb silly questions! "How many tickets is this ride?" A: 3 (or whatever the number of tickets was) But just for you, because you asked, 10,000!"
Heres another dumb question I would get asked as a ride operator at Knott's Berry Farm. "Will I like this ride?" Don't know but come back when its over and tell me.
Come to think of it I have had those kind of guests before when working at LEGOLAND and the exact words would always be: "Do you know how to get out of this park and get me to the car park?" and I'd just be thinking in the back of my head and just going: "Okay how do you think you came INTO the park? You didn't getting beamed down from the Millennium Falcon thanks to Han Solo and Chewbacca you came through the front entrance." All other snarky remarks that I reserved in my inner monologue and sometimes I would give the "Really"? sort of look once they had left. And there was even once an old lady who had walked around Pirate Shores which is one of the areas I work in and at the time I was working in another area called Kingdom of the Pharaohs and she comes up to me and says: "Excuse me do you know where I can find the toilets?" and apparently according to her she'd been going around in a complete circle for 15 minutes and never once thought to stop and check her surroundings and somehow ended up in the same location as I was at the time. It still baffles me to this very day and yet I managed to help her in the end. That woman was just so oblivious and she had done this for 15 minutes straight and literally had no idea where the toilets were and had past them just to get to Kingdom of the Pharaohs it was crazy.
The real 20 gauge one wow lol . And the fact it is not real know they use to have a lot more real guns in the park I think lol I remember as a kid they had black powder pistols and a lot more street shows ..plus you could put family members in jail .
You should hear the ones I get an an EMT!! Me: sir, i think you should go to the hospital Patient: why? Me: well, its kinda the reason why we're here, and we can only do so much for you out here in the feild Patient: how much is this gonna cost me? Me: depends what you need to have done and if you need to stay overnight. I dont do billing. Patient: what do you think is wrong with me? Me: i cant say for certain, sir. We dont diagnose. Our working feild diagnoses are only based on hypothesis based on observation Patient: so you arent a doctor? Me: no, sir Patient: do you carry any sort of drug to prevent x? Me: sir, even if that really did exist, i couldnt just give you that. Theres only 4 different drugs we carry, none of which you meet criteria for, and for every one I give, i have to do a boatload of paperwork to justify why i gave it. Patient: how are you gonna get me out of my house Me: we teleport you to our ambulance. No, sir, in all seriousness, we carry you out. Patient: you can lift me? Me: if i couldnt i probably wouldnt be doing this job. The list goes on!
One of my cousins was a paramedic/ fire fighter- and a great story teller. Some of the stories he tells would have us laughing so hard our sides would hurt. (and sometimes horrify us as well)
@@SirWillow or another one: Me: what medication do you take? Patient: I dont remember its a little white pill Me: that describes at least 20 different medications out there, Ma'am. I cant figure it out just by "little white pill" Patient: so you cant tell me what medication it is? Because i dont remember. Me: ma'am, im good but im not THAT good. The name of the medication is on the label on the bottle Patient: i dont remember where i put the bottle Me: finds bottle in PLAIN SIGHT "this it?" Patient: well ill be! You found it!
Good morning sir Willow. How is your day going for you there was questions that I always wanted to ask and never could remember to ask him to later on that day. What did I ever do with the way the old theme park at celebration city? I know I see were people have got into the park and videotape this after it had been shut down for a while. Also the old. Also to let you know how long it’s been since me and my wife had been down there. There was a museum Roy Rogers and Dale Evans that has been shipped from California to Branson.. Well sir will you take care and have a great day always look forward to checking out to see what you have new I noticed on lotta the people that make videos of the way the strip looks now. And they seem to go so fast down The strip at Branson. Looks like Since there’s not much traffic they can go little slower now. Well you take care do you have a great day I’ll look forward to watching your videos bye-bye
Hey Frank. The Roy Rogers and Dale Evans items were at the RFD theater, which is at the beginning and end of the drive. They were moved out quite a while ago. We're actually driving a good bit faster than you normally can because of the lack of traffic. Usually traffic crawls in the 10-20mph range because it's all backed up. It's why the locals get very familiar with side routes, so they don't have to drive down the strip. It's taken me 30-40 minutes a couple of times when I made the mistake to go that way. And still nothing new happening at the old Mutten Hollow/ Celebration City site. SDC uses it for some off park storage, and there's a church that uses one of the buildings. But that's about it.
i sometimes intentionally ask those silly questions just ti see what kind of answer i will get. sometimes perks the employee up as they may have one they have been holding onto for a while and havent gotten the right question to give it and i try to give them the chance to use it.they tend to catch on real quick if its a particularly dumb question question. as i keep a few really dumb questions handy if i see a cast member having a bit of a bad day and just let them roast me for a dumb question and it helps them out and release some of the stress and get a good laugh about it later.
Saying what could get you put in jail? That something is a silly or dumb question? Im curious where that would be. I must really be spoiled with the freedom of speech we enjoy.
Yeh telling customers or guests ‘the wrong inappropriate ‘ answers. Don’t get me wrong I’ve heard that people here that have taken some one to court for being funny do to speak. I’m just shocked ur so free to say that
"We aren't going to get robbed on this train, will we?" "You mean you *didn't* get robbed coming in here?"
Love it!
I had one guest ask where the saloon was cause she wanted a beer... One wanted to know why the cave didn't have an elevator. I told her "we are terrified of elevators, we take steps to avoid them".
“If you pull that orange emergency cord and if there’s no emergency, we will provide ya’ll with one!”
Love when you do characters, not exactly academy award material but it always makes me laugh!
Last weekend was our first weekend of Fright Fest at Six Flags St. Louis, and a guest actually asked me if the Freaks Unleashed is when the Freaks come out.
As an added bonus, Freaks Come Out at Night by Whodini was playing over the nearby PA as well.
"Where's the Christmas lights?" "Well we have over 5 million Christmas lights. They're kind of everywhere."
"Oh cool...so where the Christmas lights?"
The bright things on building trees etc
I'm dying of laughter. I showed my co workers at the break room. We are all laughing
My favorite answer is still the classic "no sir, this here train is made of cardboard, and we all get on it and make lots of noise and pretend" I still say that should be on a t-shirt
If someone can come up with a good looking design for it, I'll make it available! :-)
Right out of high school I used to work at a gas station 50yards from the toll plaza of a bridge. At least once a week someone would pull in and ask, "Where's the Tacony bridge?" "See that toll plaza there? Ask them."

Hey another great video! Thanks for taking the time to put it together and share with us.
Customer: Where are those lovely little eclairs I bought last week?
Me: Sorry, you must be thinking of another store. We don't sell doughnuts.
Customer: Eclairs aren't doughnuts, and I bought them here last week.
Me: Do you mean the chocolate dipped cream puffs?
Customer: NO! Eclairs. They're little pastries filled with cream and covered in chocolate, and I bought them here last week.
Me: Can I show you what I think you bought?
Customer: NO! You're useless. I'll find them myself.
(customer storms off. customer returns waving a box in my face.)
Customer: I found them, you stupid girl!
Me: Oh good, you found the cream puffs. Have a nice day!
Me answering phone: Hello, seasonal department.
Customer: Hi. Is this the seasonal department?
What I wanted to say: Nope, this is grocery. I just like answering calls for other departments for fun. Let me transfer you.
What I actually said: Yes.
Customer: Where is the laundry detergent?
Me: Do you see the start of the grocery aisles? Follow that to the back of the store.
Customer: Don't send me on a wild goose chase if you don't know!
Me: Uh, I'm sorry?
Customer: I see carpet cleaners right here, so laundry can't be far away. Where's the laundry detergent?
Me: At the back of the store, past grocery.
Customer: But I'm looking at carpet cleaner.
Me: You're looking at spot cleaner for pet messes. If you turn your head to the left, you'll see leashes. If you turn your head to the right, you'll see dog toys. This is the pets department. Laundry detergent is at the back of the store, past the grocery aisles.
Customer: Where are the hiking boots?
Me: In the shoe department...
Customer: Shouldn't they be here with the camping supplies? Because you use them outdoors?
Me: Don't you use most shoes outdoors?
Customer (staring at a wall of yarn): Where are the shoe laces?
Me: In the shoe department...
(As I'm busy feeding dough into the large industrial bun roller, wearing a visor and smock with the store's logo)
Customer: Um, do you work here?
(No, they just haven't caught me yet.)
Customer (as she's buying cigarettes from me): I like to share them with the kids who hang out at the corner of your building.
Me: I'm sorry, I can't sell these to you now.
Customer: Why not?
Me: You just told me these are for minors. That's illegal. I could be personally fined $2,000 for selling these to you now.
Customer (pointing at another cashier): Well, can he sell them to me?
Other cashier: Nope, heard everything.
(customer then demands to speak to a manager)
Customer: I'm looking for a makeup kit for my 12 year old.
Me: You'll have to ask the associate in cosmetics. I'm confined to toys and seasonal right now.
Customer: Makeup for 12 year olds should be in toys!
Me: There's no makeup here.
Customer: Well there should be!
(I'm sorry?)
Customer: This lego set is supposed to be $4 but the cashier scanned it for $10.
Me: It was probably in the wrong spot when you found it. The cashier can sell it to you for $4, though. They're allowed to adjust small prices when there's an error.
Customer: Are you calling me a liar?
Me: No...
Customer: My boyfriend saw it too when we were in earlier. It was $4.
Me: Uh huh, it was probably in the wrong spot. Maybe another customer changed their mind and stuck it where they were standing. It's fine. The cashier can sell it to you for $4.
Customer (calls boyfriend, puts him on speaker phone): Tell the lady you saw the lego set for $4 too!
Me: Ma'am, you can have it for $4. Tell the cashier Jenna in Toys said so.
(this went on for 20 minutes)
These are absolutely fantastic! I love ypyr aense of humor aand the fact that the park was willing to allow you folks the freedom to answer silly questions with silly responses!

Great video. 🙂👍❤
I love that Pizza Planet Shirt. Toy Story is great. Looking forward to Toy Story 4. Heard it's supposed to be even sadder than Toy Story 3 was!

Uhhh go out that door, walk across that plaza to the 19-story building behind us - that you can clearly see because of the glass wall - and you'll find it. We had 2 campus phones on the desk (way before cell phones!) and you only dialed the 4 digit extension. People constantly tried dialing the whole 7 digits even after we told them not to. Best question ever: kid came up in a rush and pointed to the campus phone and asked "Is this the phone?"
I'd have answered with " *The* phone? It's *a* phone. Which phone are you looking for?"
Best one I heard: "do you know which parking area we parked in?"
Hi Sir Willow, boy did we ever hear a ton of dumb silly questions! "How many tickets is this ride?"
A: 3 (or whatever the number of tickets was) But just for you, because you asked, 10,000!"
😂😂😂 hilarious
Going in about 3 weeks and can’t wait to go
what time does the 10.30 train leave?
Heres another dumb question I would get asked as a ride operator at Knott's Berry Farm. "Will I like this ride?" Don't know but come back when its over and tell me.
I was always asked if I was Amish when I wore my costume!😂
my wife got that a lot as well!
Come to think of it I have had those kind of guests before when working at LEGOLAND and the exact words would always be: "Do you know how to get out of this park and get me to the car park?" and I'd just be thinking in the back of my head and just going: "Okay how do you think you came INTO the park? You didn't getting beamed down from the Millennium Falcon thanks to Han Solo and Chewbacca you came through the front entrance." All other snarky remarks that I reserved in my inner monologue and sometimes I would give the "Really"? sort of look once they had left. And there was even once an old lady who had walked around Pirate Shores which is one of the areas I work in and at the time I was working in another area called Kingdom of the Pharaohs and she comes up to me and says: "Excuse me do you know where I can find the toilets?" and apparently according to her she'd been going around in a complete circle for 15 minutes and never once thought to stop and check her surroundings and somehow ended up in the same location as I was at the time. It still baffles me to this very day and yet I managed to help her in the end. That woman was just so oblivious and she had done this for 15 minutes straight and literally had no idea where the toilets were and had past them just to get to Kingdom of the Pharaohs it was crazy.
The real 20 gauge one wow lol . And the fact it is not real know they use to have a lot more real guns in the park I think lol I remember as a kid they had black powder pistols and a lot more street shows ..plus you could put family members in jail .
You should hear the ones I get an an EMT!!
Me: sir, i think you should go to the hospital
Patient: why?
Me: well, its kinda the reason why we're here, and we can only do so much for you out here in the feild
Patient: how much is this gonna cost me?
Me: depends what you need to have done and if you need to stay overnight. I dont do billing.
Patient: what do you think is wrong with me?
Me: i cant say for certain, sir. We dont diagnose. Our working feild diagnoses are only based on hypothesis based on observation
Patient: so you arent a doctor?
Me: no, sir
Patient: do you carry any sort of drug to prevent x?
Me: sir, even if that really did exist, i couldnt just give you that. Theres only 4 different drugs we carry, none of which you meet criteria for, and for every one I give, i have to do a boatload of paperwork to justify why i gave it.
Patient: how are you gonna get me out of my house
Me: we teleport you to our ambulance. No, sir, in all seriousness, we carry you out.
Patient: you can lift me?
Me: if i couldnt i probably wouldnt be doing this job.
The list goes on!
One of my cousins was a paramedic/ fire fighter- and a great story teller. Some of the stories he tells would have us laughing so hard our sides would hurt. (and sometimes horrify us as well)
@@SirWillow once, i had a patients dog come up to me and start licking my face as I was taking a blood pressure!
@@SirWillow or another one:
Me: what medication do you take?
Patient: I dont remember its a little white pill
Me: that describes at least 20 different medications out there, Ma'am. I cant figure it out just by "little white pill"
Patient: so you cant tell me what medication it is? Because i dont remember.
Me: ma'am, im good but im not THAT good. The name of the medication is on the label on the bottle
Patient: i dont remember where i put the bottle
Me: finds bottle in PLAIN SIGHT "this it?"
Patient: well ill be! You found it!
wow the whole train thing lmao... like, these ppl treated it like a riddle or a chinese puzzle or something 😹😹😹
I went there TO Silver Dollar City Sunday September 30, 2018
I once worked at Astroworld and they sold little loafs of bread and honey. People were always asking "what's honey".
Grew up with Astroworld, it was fun while it lasted.
omg the camera in the silly guest hand at 2:02 in. I recognized it, I think I have a completely similar. Is it a Casio Exilim camera?
I believe so. I don't think we have it anymore.
@@SirWillow it looks cool and this video was so funny. I like the videos about SDC, they are amazing
We have a Lost Creek in Oregon
At knotts there’s a robber that comes and “robs” you
Good morning sir Willow. How is your day going for you there was questions that I always wanted to ask and never could remember to ask him to later on that day. What did I ever do with the way the old theme park at celebration city? I know I see were people have got into the park and videotape this after it had been shut down for a while. Also the old. Also to let you know how long it’s been since me and my wife had been down there. There was a museum Roy Rogers and Dale Evans that has been shipped from California to Branson.. Well sir will you take care and have a great day always look forward to checking out to see what you have new I noticed on lotta the people that make videos of the way the strip looks now. And they seem to go so fast down The strip at Branson. Looks like Since there’s not much traffic they can go little slower now. Well you take care do you have a great day I’ll look forward to watching your videos bye-bye
Hey Frank. The Roy Rogers and Dale Evans items were at the RFD theater, which is at the beginning and end of the drive. They were moved out quite a while ago.
We're actually driving a good bit faster than you normally can because of the lack of traffic. Usually traffic crawls in the 10-20mph range because it's all backed up. It's why the locals get very familiar with side routes, so they don't have to drive down the strip. It's taken me 30-40 minutes a couple of times when I made the mistake to go that way.
And still nothing new happening at the old Mutten Hollow/ Celebration City site. SDC uses it for some off park storage, and there's a church that uses one of the buildings. But that's about it.
i sometimes intentionally ask those silly questions just ti see what kind of answer i will get. sometimes perks the employee up as they may have one they have been holding onto for a while and havent gotten the right question to give it and i try to give them the chance to use it.they tend to catch on real quick if its a particularly dumb question question. as i keep a few really dumb questions handy if i see a cast member having a bit of a bad day and just let them roast me for a dumb question and it helps them out and release some of the stress and get a good laugh about it later.
GeekMoto13 okay that’s kinda cool
I'm dying 😂😂😂
Sometimes you wish you could slap dumb people...but we all have dumb moments..
As a current SDC employee 100 percent
I'm down at Firemans Landing Firehouse and HDH been on park since summer of 2021 I also remember as Guest when I was little
I asked a CM where the nearest bathroom was they pointed behind me I thanked them turned bright red thanked them and then left
Where are the bathrooms?
I find it fascinating how u are aloud to say that. Here it’s so strict n some could get you in jail
Saying what could get you put in jail? That something is a silly or dumb question? Im curious where that would be. I must really be spoiled with the freedom of speech we enjoy.
Yeh telling customers or guests ‘the wrong inappropriate ‘ answers. Don’t get me wrong I’ve heard that people here that have taken some one to court for being funny do to speak. I’m just shocked ur so free to say that
Really? I've never heard of that, and I'm shocked they would even think something like that. Where was that?
But are you allowed to say that.
😆😆😆😆😆👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Interesting tidbit: .410 is metric the actual gauge is a 67
First?
