dutch square mall?
@BlakeEyers yea! I’ve done a few vids here and this radio shack is always awesome!
Rip to Sam goody last 2 locations closing sometime in 2025 :-(
@@bellebrown3603 yea, sucks… I just heard that too! 😢🎸🎶
6:53 Yes, I heard "puppy shakes"! 🐕
Gotta get my Circuit City fix. Miss this store. 😢
You said Dillly.....😂😮
We would go to Oglethorpe alot when I was an itty-bitty...there was a K&W or Piccadilly's...that was always a real treat!! Any word on what they are going to do to the carousel from the Savannah Mall?
Where is this located?
Aiden’s Awesome Mall in Aiken! 😂
You keep calling it route 26. It’s interstate 26. I-26, not a route. 😊
@@kimsabutterfly ok… you’ve done it now! It’s going to be called “street 26”! Shout out Kimsa! WOOOOOO!!!!🥳🥳🥳
I remember when the KFC closed in Holly Hill. I don’t remember why, but it was the early 2000’s. I ate there a few times. It seemed to me you could eat inside, but I guess not. I think we always went through the drive thru. The little liquor store was closed when I came home in 2001. It’s been closed a really long time, as far as I know. My dad would have known, but he’s gone, too.
@@kimsabutterfly hey Kim! Maybe there was a back room to eat with out windows but that KFC is so small… it’s smaller than a Checkers. Also, I like Holly Hill because it’s not too far off ROUTE 26! 🤣🤣🤣
Even though I was sad when the Savannah Mall closed, me and other locals collectively agree that the Oglethorpe Mall was always the better mall.
@@LadyDLolipops yea Oglethorpe just has that “classy” vibe while Sav Mall had more of a “wow” vibe
I’m praying to God Ames Department Stores come back. It wasn’t the fact that Ames wasn’t successful the fact that they kept buying retailers it had no use for which is what destroyed the company. Their website says 37 locations are supposed to open and then more to come I am hoping it’s not a hoax..We need more brick and mortar discount retailers. Amazon is not the best place to go. I prefer to support brick and mortar stores.
Gashapon is a Japanese type of vending machine for toys
We finally see the mall where your intro is from
@@bellebrown3603 100%! Good eye! 👁️ 🤣
@ never knew about this mall so had no idea it was the Oglethorpe mall 😅
It was built by George Bishop and opened in 1977 as Waccamaw Pottery, Bishop designed and made his own pottery products originally, and sold them in his 5 various east coast stores, that spanned as far north as Wasington D.C.. It was the original factory store concept for an otherwise nation filled at the time with exclusive indoor malls. While the Myrtle Square mall was opened in 1975, it was an indoor exclusive mall, holding at one time the record for the worlds largest clock, it was later torn down in January, 2006 after some 31 years, (Burroughs & Collin's, in the 1990's the company merged with Myrtle Beach Farms Company, and was renamed Burroughs & Chapin.) This was a part of changing the Myrtle Beach tourist area, to divert some of the summer traffic away from Myrtle Beach, Ocean Blvd, by building "Broadway at the Beach", a series of factory store concept with individual attractions, which house popular eateries, breweries, custom shops, a Theater, and even Riply's acquarium. While Waccamaw Factory is still in operation to some extent 47 years later. Waccamaw is named after the local Waccamaw native tribe, and is pronounced like you would say a chinese "wok" thus "wok-ah'maw". The Waccamaw stores were bustling well into the late 1980's, but traffic started to decline by the late 1990's and early 2000's due to access changes that were made on the county and state levels in regards to highway 501, increasing the difficulty for patrons to easily access the property from a major highway. During the early 2000's I worked for a major delivery carrier, and often had packages delivered to the various stores, some of the most dedicated stores stayed until the very end, stores such as Nine West, and American Tourister, in which in recent decades have decided to sell their products in third party stores instead of their own mall stores. Although they do still operate their exclusive stores in factory store environments.
Feels like they should Turn the mall into a gaint club with shopping and open @ 5:00pm local close @ 1-6am local
Hi. I was born and & raised in Myrtle Beach and grew up going here. So, this outlet center consisted of 3 separate malls, which were labeled “Mall 1,” “Mall 2,” and “Mall 3.” Malls 1 & 2 were located side by side in the front there, while Mall 3 was in a separate building across the street behind them. I haven’t driven back there in a long time, but a coworker of mine told me recently that Mall 3 had been demolished by FedEx who now owns the property back there. Judging from what I was able to see from this video when you walked behind Mall 2, it looks like this may unfortunately be true. Mall 3 was the one we went to most frequently when I was a kid so the lion’s share of my memories are of that particular mall. I do recall going into Mall 2 back in 2007 or 2008 when this was a dead mall, and to my surprise there were still a couple of stores open and I think I remember a couple of the eateries in the food court being open. I remember thinking how random and weird it was because these malls had been dead for a long time at that point and I didn’t anticipate seeing any trace of life in them. But yeah-this was a very hopping place back in the 1990s. I can’t remember with certainty which of the three it was in, but I do remember there being a very decent arcade in the mall.
@@isaiah2810 maybe mall 3 is where the parking lot was for hard rock park… because there is that empty parking lot area for the park and there was some type of building there with some concrete walkways that are still there under random grasses. Then… beyond that lot is the new massive FedEx hub warehouse. Thanks for all this info! I really wish someone would have documented this place decades ago on film. I’m sure there are vhs camcorder tapes rotting somewhere in a moldy garage with video footage of this place!
@@charlestonpinballarcade So fed ex bought part of the old hard rock park. Or fantasy harbor or freestyle park. It’s been a bunch of different names. Mid evil times is still back there and two churches. A ford dealer bought another part of it. To work on commercial trucks and RVs. The history of that place is amazing. Wish you would have done a video of when hard rock park was closed.
Famous footwear prices? I can afford one for each foot dawg. Love the old commercials
@@christrojak9951 the dad jokes with that guy were so bad they were good(ish) 🤣🤣🤣
Thriving mall???? Crazy . there is still one wicks and sticks left in the usa and it is at boothwyn farmerd market in PA. Love that weird ass hippy candle store
Oh! We need a vid of that store!!!
Your vids are cool dude, good sense of humor and right to the point, laid back as well, you are the Bob Ross of abandoned places, thanks bro, Eddie Money rocks, he tried to use that Napoleon Dynamite time machine, but all it does is hurt your balls…… I set it to 83, plus I can throw this football over that mountain
Thanks DL!!! I’m always trying to find some of the fun and memories in the places I film. Uncle Rico was the man throwing that football over the mountain! 😂😂😂
Hey, its my local mall! I still go there for the gym and Barnes and Noble. The Sears is getting demolished and will be replaced by apartments. Next time you're in the area, check out the Pinball Palace in Brunswick (around an hour's drive away). Amazing pinball arcade.
Thanks! Yes, I have been down to the palace. Amazing place. Kelly has a crazy collection! It’s a bit out of my normal radius that I will typically travel unless I am passing by for something else more important. My only issue with palace is that I have been there a few times when it’s waaaay too busy. That’s obviously a great thing for the business, but I like to be able to hear and see the games I am playing without being on top of someone else. I still want to film the Darien outlets, so I will maybe get down there around Christmas.
Great video! Been a few years since I've been to a mall. Nice walk. Structure was a cool spot back in the day
Thanks T! Structure was the proper gear back in the day for date time with that special pretty girl! 😂😂😂
Hey, dude! How've you been?
All good. Finding videos I never thought I filmed. 😂
Lots of bricks in that 🧱 😮😮
@@FesterFlo Floyd pink!
I wonder if Hurricane Helene caused any further damage to a building that was already not being well cared for. We didn't get hit like NC, but the area by the mall got plenty of strong wind.
@@SouthpawFrizzell hmmm good question. I haven’t been back down to Savannah in a while. I know that someone mentioned the plans for mall redevelopment with all the inline corridors is happening in a few months
Cant wait to see this one
It’s a tough one to film because it’s a very small hall mall with a daycare center. The door is never open on the weekend and I obviously can’t be filming when kids are there. Gonna find it the right day…
Neat vid
@@davidhutt-j2n thanks DH! Always trying to have some fun and capture these places on video while traveling around!
i do not like drone heights i get sick from it okay no more
Was built by two different contractors. Caused one contractor to almost go out of business. There was an exact replica mall in Maryland.
@@WhoKnows-n3t oooooh! What was the mall in Maryland called? Was it demolished? Now I need to see some video!
@ So. Tanger bought the property up there.
If it’s a building or property in Myrtle beach. I probably know who built it or who owned it. I have a very good resource for all of Myrtle and surrounding areas
She said bum bum! 😂😮
Love that border on the wall. 😂
@@FesterFlo it’s the designer touches that make the house a home! 🤣
By May 2025 or June 2025, Will Savannah Mall be torn down (Except for Target, Bass Pro Shops, & Dillard's) and become a Large Indoor Mixed-Use Shopping Center with Upscale Shopping, Restaurants, Entertainment, & Recreation, Apartments & Senior Housing behind it, and The Last Remaining Movie Theater to relocate to The Mall from Across The Street?
Next gas station video, you have to use the Kmart big gas savings commercials.
@@jeee1074 I used that commercial last year sometime. I can’t remember which video. I am actually past the point of trying to determine if “I filmed that place?” when I drive past locations… 🤣🤣🤣
It puts the lotion in the basket
@@davidlynch78 yes it does! And it still gets the hose! 🤣🤣🤣
HAHA!! The Pinkie commercial was a nice touch. The whole time I'm watching this I'm picturing the middle finger being used. Looking forward to more gas station videos!
@@45AMT I got gas!…. Station videos! 🤣🤣🤣
Hey y’all 😂 if you watch at 2:10 u can see the mysterious Charleston pinball. I knew you would slip up at some point. We know who you are. Then if you pause it at 5:23 u got a good visual than.😂 busted
@@crazyadventuresandreviewsI know you’re going to get that shot blown up and printed in canvas for your shed! I saw it in the edit this morning and just left it in so all the fans could see what a UA-cam trillionaire looks like! 🤑 I was only protecting your ego and didn’t want you to get beard envy when you saw how award winning my beard is… 🧔🤣
@@charlestonpinballarcadeI saw no beard just the face of the famous Charleston 😂
@@crazyadventuresandreviewseveryone already knows who I am… you’re the only one living in a pine straw hut 🛖 in the woods that doesn’t use Facebook… 😂😂😂
@@charlestonpinballarcade 😂 I have MySpace I just can’t remember my password
I sick....give me the good stuff!😮
@@FesterFlo he wants the “good stuff” he says…. 🤣🤣🤣
oh man if those old gas stations could tell stories lol i remember the old BP's with the shield there was one in Goose Creek where the starbucks is now my uncle took his 1990 nissan pickup in there and forgot about his CB whip and turned that nice 60 dollar wilson whip into a darn pretzel
@@Newberntrains oh damn! I had a Wilson whip on the back of my jeep when I was in high school!! Also… a huge Antron 99 fiberglass in the backyard. Several friends were big into CB! I was just looking into getting a cobra base station again just to mess around on it for fun… and maybe post some CB UA-cam videos! 🤣🤣🤣
That old Amoco with those distinctive signs inside is just beautiful and sad, at the same time.
@@BollingHolt even the flecked blue paint on the inside of the blocks wall was perfect patina!!! 🤩
The flags woth the 18 on them had a "pillar" next to them that were shaped like a golf tee and a ball on top. (If you mentioned it, and i missed that, my apologies)
@@beaufortgirl72 yea, I guess it was a golf themed food court… FORE! ⛳️🏌️🤣 Too bad there was no FROLF… I could have brought my frisbees and maybe they serve the burgers and fries on the discs?🍔
Sorry if I wasn't here! I was still waking up!
@@AidanVilleneuve you’re in trouble now mister!! 🤣🤣🤣
I know the guy who built the place. He can give you all kinds of facts about it.
First, we need to fill it up with social media influencers.
“Influencers” bout to taste all that mold and asbestos in this place! 😂😂😂
No, get me out of the hole!
@@jeee1074 gimme the dog now!!!!🫨🫨🫨
Let's all go to the movies!
@@FesterFlo now!
Oh no..........keep on shorting. 😂😮
@@FesterFlo I just shorted… 🤣 I’m going to short some more! 🤣
I went there as a kid, and think I remember thatbit *was* a movie theater. I have a cousin who's been there deacades, so I might have more info coming.
@@janicemabrey5659 thanks Janice! I am guessing this was the first “big outdoor mall” for Myrtle. I think briarcliffe came first but outlet malls started popping up all over the country and this place must have been awesome!

😂 OH NO, he’s back with the shorts, 2500 before the end of the year
It’s unfortunately the only way to get there… fn horrible. Post videos and get like 3 subs. If it wasn’t for joking around with a few people like you that have fun on UA-cam… I would have stopped posting! 😂😂😂
@ there is a secret to getting a million subs and I know it. It’s the vanilla ice hair cut you must get the due and then pop out in front of the camera and be like it’s me the ice man. 😂guarantee it would go viral.
