    Jungle Jim’s is great! I live in Indiana and people plan trips to Jungle Jim’s with a car full of coolers to bring back supplies.

    This ended up being way more entertaining than I thought it would! Our host did a great job, pausing so we could actually see everything. The UFOs rule!! I would have those in every room of my house. Thanks so much for the post!

    I grew up about 20 min from JJ and used to go with my parents on Saturday mornings (i'm 50 now). It's cool to see how it has evolved into what it is.

    Jungle Jim in 1971 had a road side fruit and vegetible stand a few miles north of this store. He then bought this property and built the first section which is next to where the monkeys and giraffes were outside. That was the original entrance. Then added sections over the years. The room where the toys are was added as a garden center separate from the other building. Now its connected to the main building. The body builder poster at the begining has jungle jims face on it 😊.

    Hey Jordan hose seats are from Riverfront Stadium, and LaRosa's is still served at Kings Island. But the ones at Kings Island is the original recipe. What the have in the stores and restaurants now is the newer recipe. Matter of fact we are heading to Kings Island tonight.

    The poster of the muscle man above the shelving at the 6:00 minute mark is the face of Jungle Jim himself. He can sometimes be found touring the store on roller skates. Jim and Joannie Bonominio are very civic minded as well.

    @paulahamilton3089 2 місяці тому

    You know he use to buy all that giant stuff local. Like the old time cars were from Kings Island and the giant hit wheel was the old Goodyear Firestone cars from Kings Island too. Some of the stuff from the Cincinnati zoo. I am sure the star wars stuff was from Kenner production of the old action toys were here in Cincinnati. Long out of business now. Hopefully all props are still local. I live here closer to the other location in Eastgate ,but there are things i can't find else where so it is great for specialty foods. Thanks for sharing this with us.

    we are not gonna make it this year, our travels well not get us close enough, we try to get there each year for our Christmas gifts (usually spending around 200 bucks, taking time for lunch and last time was meeting a friend for a trip around the place, it is great exercise) for the family, and lots of unique soda pop as you are calling them. lol!! amazed at how much has changed at this location. i think the last visit we were at the other location (they were doing some remodeling adding more of a beer eating experience). i guess they have to keep up with the times and change decor, etc. i'm sorry i could have swore i was subscribed to your channel. hope you will get a chance to see the other location 1 day at least, know it is totally different.
