You have no idea how much your videos mean to me. I get to travel and ride roller coasters through your eyes with my limited mobility and health issues.
I think so many of us live vicariously through you and all your fun travels to all these amusement parks! I am not a roller coaster person anymore but it is SO much fun to virtually go on these rides with you! Thank you Jacob! Also you can donate the beads to Big Brothers and Sisters or agencies like that, the kids would love them!
Hello Jacob, it's been tough watching your videos as of late, my wife and i would watch your videos together, and love them. She gave you a lot of credit for standing up for yourself and going for a totally different career, sticking to your pew pewsl.. I lost my wife suddenly last Sunday to the common flu.. it truly sux having someone in your life 24/7/365 for the past 15years to hitting a wall, smack dead center.. Watching your video today , it reminded me of the times we rode Kingda Ka at Six flags great adventure. She would remind me that she rode that coaster and its 456 feet, at the zenith to the drop, and the actual drop tower is appropriately 420 feet to the top of the drop... Some useless info she stored.. also FYI, structually, the coaster and drop tower are electrically and mechanically interlocked, so that only one ride can physically operate at a time, due to all the " G " FORCES exerted on the structure when operating just the one ride.. operating both rides at the same time would cause a catostrophic, cataclysmic anomaly beyond reproach that would make for great video, if no one was on it and in the vicinity when operation occurred.. Be well my friend, love your stuff...
I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my dad last month. My parents were married for 58 years and it's been hard on my mom. I can't imagine losing the person you spent every day with. I hope her memory gives you comfort and know she would want you to be happy and at peace.
I gathered all of my Mardi Gras beads and have them in a glass decorative container. They catch the light beautifully and it’s an easy way to store them.
Love that Cheetah! I say, keep the Mardi Gras beads and use them for Mardi Gras each year! I love the roller coasters you were on! Thank you for taking us along on your visit to Busch Gardens at Tamps! I look forward to your videos every day!
Don't feel bad I'm 72 years old never have watched a football game in my life.... seen a few plays running through the channel sometimes but that is about it😂
Hang the beads on a tree in the bunker. Either a mini Christmas tree or a small tree made of sticks or branches. Or Elvis can wear them, either him or Joe dirt.
I want to agree with some of the other comments I have been reading, your vlogs also mean the world to me.!! .. Like you have been on this amazing adventure, Its cool I have been able and all your fans to follow along, with It...!!!!! XXXX
I love football been watching since 91 and celebrating Superbowl every year i was a bartender for 11 years so then i celebrated at the pub I worked at. When i was not bartending i either partied at a friend's for Superbowl or had it at my house. Also love see all the places you go to. I use to love drop rides and roller coasters but unfortunately now due to health issues I pretty much am home bound.
Give the beads to Jen. She'll figure out something to do with them. They can be used to decorate a small Christmas tree or an unlimited number of other things. This Mardi Gras celebration was fun.
Fun video. The Mardi Gras stuff looked pretty good, considering it's at a theme park and not a parade! But I live in Calif., so we get no Mardi Gras anything out here! Good idea to have so many season passes, love seeing the animal parks and zoos too. 🙂
Get a big Jar and put any beads you get in it and put it in your bunker. Then when you look at it you will remember all the fun times you had getting them.
My suggestion was similar. I put a strand of beads in the bottom of a clear vase, then I put in the cut real flowers or fake flowers and it looks pretty.
Oooooomggggg!! I would NEVER get on that drop tower!!! lol i love when you do places like this and get on the insane roller coasters!!!😂😂Great video, Jacob!!❤❤ oh Good catch, when you caught the beads!!🎉🎉
The answers to your questions as you asked them at the beginning of the video: It is to certain people, no I stuck around for the food but I'd rather watch the Puppy Bowl, yes the SuperBowl is a thing, only if you want to, yes, and it'd be an interesting livestream.
BG is my park! I'm a native and I've been going here for forty years. I hate the gator fence too, I wish that jerk had at least been eaten! Love Kumba! Aaaa! I was once stuck in that Cobra's Curse queue with an eight year old and a ten year old for two hours during a thunderstorm. That preshow video is tattooed forever in my brain. As for the beads, I always give them out to other people later! Take them to another theme park or a sportsball game or another parade and give them to little kids :D
I really enjoyed their Mardi Gras, with the dancers performers and music and beads. Awesome coaster footage! They have pretty grounds there. Clark should get your beads when you get home.
Maybe you can hang your bead collection from the ceiling in the bunker. Put a couple on Clark, he has to stay in the car while You're out n about!.. come back to San Antonio and go to the zoo, I believe we have the mold a rama machines,not sure it's been a while since I've been but they have added a lot to the zoo
Jacob, did you know that the roller coaster KUMBA was used as the birthday present to Richie Rich (Macaulay Culkin) in the movie that came out in the late nineties
Super Bowl is a great day to go to restaurants. Last year my husband and I went to a restaurant on Super Bowl, we were the only ones in the restaurant. It was great!
Jacob as a die hard football fan the Super Bowl is still as crazy. It’s in New Orleans next year if you want to go just for the atmosphere and not necessarily attend the game. Also that’s not fair the Skyride is now $5 for non pass holders.
Clark wanted me to tell you that he would very much like to go to Homosassa and see the Manatees … because it’s very close to Weeki Wachee where the Mermaids live 😃
We were there in the 80s. Dude jumped the wall into the Gators.... said they were fake. Park workers had to jump in and drag him out. He kept saying they were fake. As he left . I can say.... they are alive. Just maybe not hungry for humans.
Looks like you had a Happy Bead Day !! PS. Our cats like playing with Mardi Gra beads. I guess cause they're kind of slinky like a snake & make noise on the hard wood floors !
Average Super Bowl tickets are $6500. So, nope. But we did watch it. My Dad is a big sports guy. He watches all sports. I grew up watching football and doing to high school games because there was nothing else to do in our tiny home town! We didn't watch the games though, just walked around the field hanging out with friends! 😂
I think it's ridiculous to charge an extra fee to go on what is probably one of the few family rides left, the skyride, in the age of amusement parks targeting thrill seekers and building coaster after death defying coaster. The skyride was built in 1974 and long paid for. How about charging an up fee for those coasters that had cost a lot of money to build in more recent times, and greatly raise the ticket prices? Most parks have very few family rides left to go on. The skyride should be included in the park admission as it no doubt always had been.
I hang them from my rear view mirror however check state regulations first. I hope you come back soon I just got my Gold annual passes for the sea world and Busch gardens parks!!!
I am an NFL fan; my favorite 2 teams are the New England Patriots (since 1983 and the 49ers since 1989 (my whole family met the 49ers that year). Any ways, I watch the Superbowl as it is the last game of the year. I admit I was a little crushed that the Niners lost. I don't pay too much attention to half-time.
P.S However I have to say.... With your terrifying screams, and weeping, howling and crying.. I have not yet become unafraid of rollercoasters. Its a work in progress... I will continue to watch this with one eye open. If there's any change I will let you know. XXX
Don't ever ride that terrifying drop tower 🙀🙈 Your POV on the roller coasters is fun though 😺🌟🎢 The Mardi Gras experience was super too 🎭🎊🎶👑💃 I wonder if " someone" in The Bunker is wishing they had those sparkly beads...like Joe Dirt or Elvis or one of Your furry friends?😹📿💖 Great video today Jacob ❣️ As always, Thank You for bringing Us along with You 🙏💝😻
Great video Jacob I've never been to Mardi Gras looks like a fun time. Load the cheetah run Beautiful animal. Looking forward to the next safe travels my friend and take care.
3:48 Oh, yes, Super Bowl night is crazy every year. I actually make Doordash deliveries on Super Bowl Sunday and there usually isn't enough drivers out on Super Bowl Sunday since they are independent contractors and are at home watching the game. So I make a lot of money on Super Bowl Sunday due to fewer drivers working out of all of the weekends in a year. What I typically do is actually listen to the Super Bowl game on the radio instead while out making deliveries. Heck, at least you won't have to worry about the annoying commercials on the TV which is common during that game. The Super Bowl is bigger than the Kentucky Derby for some reason.
I just paused your vid to hop in and say I applaud your decision not to strap yourself into that ridiculous drop tower. That's not a ride, it's a torture device. Good on you. Carry on.
Hey Jacob I was wondering next time your at Disney can you ride their sky rides that transport you around the parks. Those were added far after I left the state and would love to see all what they offer.
You’re in my home town Jacob. Bush Gardens is pretty awesome. You should have done the night parade in downtown Ybor last night. That’s a crazy cool time. 50000 drunk pirates.
No superbowl for me. Was in my shop and when i came down i thought the wife gave me orders she was going to watch the superbowl but she had golf on instead. It has been a few years since i watched any sports but the last superbowl was when janet jackson was the half time show many years ago.
I think the Superbowl is worth watching in your living room with friends and snacks. I wouldn't ever go to the mob scene that is at the actual game. Of course it's a huge deal still. I would never go to a bar and watch the game with others unless you enjoy watching a bunch of rowdy, drunk people.
You have no idea how much your videos mean to me. I get to travel and ride roller coasters through your eyes with my limited mobility and health issues.
I enjoy Jacob
2005 was the last time i was at Bush Gardens. I think my amusement park days are over for me live but i still enjoy them through you, thanks
I think so many of us live vicariously through you and all your fun travels to all these amusement parks! I am not a roller coaster person anymore but it is SO much fun to virtually go on these rides with you! Thank you Jacob! Also you can donate the beads to Big Brothers and Sisters or agencies like that, the kids would love them!
That roller coaster was insane. You said leaving your job and taking the leap with your channel was super scary for you. You are so brave.

I’m so very sorry for your loss. 😢
Sending you hugs from Michigan
So sorry for the sudden unexpected loss of your Dear wife. 💚💚💚
I gathered all of my Mardi Gras beads and have them in a glass decorative container. They catch the light beautifully and it’s an easy way to store them.
Thank you, feeling under the weather and just wanted to hear your voice.
Love that Cheetah! I say, keep the Mardi Gras beads and use them for Mardi Gras each year! I love the roller coasters you were on! Thank you for taking us along on your visit to Busch Gardens at Tamps! I look forward to your videos every day!
Don't feel bad I'm 72 years old never have watched a football game in my life.... seen a few plays running through the channel sometimes but that is about it😂
Some people don't like man sports.
lol . Me either, I’m 50 years old.. Same here 😂
Your not missing much
Carpet Bagger the guy is excellent he feels like a friend you can easily LOVE ❤ and Jen
Hang the beads on a tree in the bunker. Either a mini Christmas tree or a small tree made of sticks or branches. Or Elvis can wear them, either him or Joe dirt.
Save the Mardi Gras beads, when you have a few thousand, throw your own Mardi Gras parade for all your many fans!
The Mardi Gras beads are definitely bunker worthy:)
I want to agree with some of the other comments I have been reading, your vlogs also mean the world to me.!! .. Like you have been on this amazing adventure, Its cool I have been able and all your fans to follow along, with It...!!!!! XXXX

I love how you stop and pet any cat you come across 😸
I'm glad do videos inspire people to travel places
Give the beads to Jen. She'll figure out something to do with them. They can be used to decorate a small Christmas tree or an unlimited number of other things.
This Mardi Gras celebration was fun.
She could make a Mardi Gras tree too.
You're a Floridian at heart, Sweetie
I spent Superbowl Sunday catching up on Carpetbagger videos!
Fun video. The Mardi Gras stuff looked pretty good, considering it's at a theme park and not a parade! But I live in Calif., so we get no Mardi Gras anything out here! Good idea to have so many season passes, love seeing the animal parks and zoos too. 🙂
Clark says...please sir..bead me!
Thank You for taking us along to Busch Gardens. Never been there but it is my hope to visit soon. Great video. ❤️
Your carpet-splaining cracks us up!
Get a big Jar and put any beads you get in it and put it in your bunker. Then when you look at it you will remember all the fun times you had getting them.
My suggestion was similar. I put a strand of beads in the bottom of a clear vase, then I put in the cut real flowers or fake flowers and it looks pretty.

Thank you!
You riding the roller coaster always makes my day and that's making you such a fun guy 😄
I mainly watch the Super Bowl for the commercials. 😉👍
Oooooomggggg!! I would NEVER get on that drop tower!!! lol i love when you do places like this and get on the insane roller coasters!!!😂😂Great video, Jacob!!❤❤ oh Good catch, when you caught the beads!!🎉🎉
Hi Jacob! I'm with you, aw Hell No!! No sudden drops or plunges from high spots for me either!
The answers to your questions as you asked them at the beginning of the video:
It is to certain people, no I stuck around for the food but I'd rather watch the Puppy Bowl, yes the SuperBowl is a thing, only if you want to, yes, and it'd be an interesting livestream.
BG is my park! I'm a native and I've been going here for forty years. I hate the gator fence too, I wish that jerk had at least been eaten! Love Kumba! Aaaa! I was once stuck in that Cobra's Curse queue with an eight year old and a ten year old for two hours during a thunderstorm. That preshow video is tattooed forever in my brain.
As for the beads, I always give them out to other people later! Take them to another theme park or a sportsball game or another parade and give them to little kids :D
We have a Super Bowl party and bbq every year, and i have never once watched the game lol!!!!
lol same here! We watch other shows and have all of the Superbowl snacks.
Love my Carpet Bagger Just plain ❤ you sir, i see you as a wonderful 😊guy i swear you the best
Good Morning Jacob and Jennifer 🙋🏾
I really enjoyed their Mardi Gras, with the dancers performers and music and beads. Awesome coaster footage! They have pretty grounds there. Clark should get your beads when you get home.
This was fun! I want to go there! Love the Mardi Gras celebration.
Maybe you can hang your bead collection from the ceiling in the bunker. Put a couple on Clark, he has to stay in the car while You're out n about!.. come back to San Antonio and go to the zoo, I believe we have the mold a rama machines,not sure it's been a while since I've been but they have added a lot to the zoo
So beautiful place all green and fun 😍
Jacob save those beads at Christmas you could decorate a mardi grad tree !😎🌲✌❤
Stanleyville is the Area around the Flume Ride, the Congo River Rapids, and Tanganyika Tidal Wave 😎✌️
you should never feel like you have to do the rides , you need to except that you like the ride and ride on or not.
Hi Jacob the carpetbagger I like your channel and vlogs keep up the good work 😊👍
Cobras Curse is highly underrated as just an all out fun coaster. It makes me giggle like a little kid every time.
Thank you Jacob for another great video.
The beads you caught at the Gasparilla Pirate Festival also matched your shirt - weird coincidence.
Let Clark wear the beads! 💚💚💚
🎉yes!!!!!
Never seen Busch Gardens. Thanks for the tour.
Jacob, did you know that the roller coaster KUMBA was used as the birthday present to Richie Rich (Macaulay Culkin) in the movie that came out in the late nineties
Enjoyed y😂our Mardi Gras day at Bush Gardens! Congrats on the coasters too!
Super Bowl is a great day to go to restaurants. Last year my husband and I went to a restaurant on Super Bowl, we were the only ones in the restaurant. It was great!
Loved to catch the Bud commercials with the Clydesdales. Remember watching the Michael Jackson halftime...but never really watched the games.
Good game this year
I hate waiting for trams too, the Disney World Skyway also turned a corner
Good Morning" YA ALL " Jacob ..!!
I've NEVER watched the superbowl either 😂😂😂
Me neither. The Puppy Bowl 🐶🏈, on the other hand, I’ve watched that many times.
Jacob as a die hard football fan the Super Bowl is still as crazy. It’s in New Orleans next year if you want to go just for the atmosphere and not necessarily attend the game. Also that’s not fair the Skyride is now $5 for non pass holders.

It would be so cool if Jacob went
i love mardi gras and i can't wait to visit busch gardens.
i hope you're having fun jacob.
You need to go to Gagterland zoo to see some Big Gaters !!!!
I foresee Joe Dirt, Animatronic Elvis, and that weird stuffed fox all gaining some attractive beads.
😂that's a great idea! I love it

Awesome thank you for sharing this with us put beads on Elvis back home 🏡💖🏡😊

Give your beads to Jenn! Great video!

❤ agree
Bring the beads home for Jenny Penny 😃 or put them in a clear jar or vase… or drape them around random things in your cave 😁
Don't ever ride that terrifying drop tower 🙀🙈 Your POV on the roller coasters is fun though 😺🌟🎢 The Mardi Gras experience was super too 🎭🎊🎶👑💃 I wonder if " someone" in The Bunker is wishing they had those sparkly beads...like Joe Dirt or Elvis or one of Your furry friends?😹📿💖 Great video today Jacob ❣️ As always, Thank You for bringing Us along with You 🙏💝😻
Donate the beads. Another great video Jacob
Great idea. Maybe a children's hospital? I'm sure they would love them.
Thanks. 👍🙂🙏
I think Adam the woo friend the Tim tracker wrote the giant swing there .have a great day jaboc the carpet bagger 🎉
Give the beads out at Halloween, candy and beads.
Put the beads on some of your displays in your mancave. And then next year you can use them.
Busch gardens is the best american theme park its my favoeite theme park . Ilove u guys have fun and be safe.
I would love too go too this park I've never been there before
Great video Jacob I've never been to Mardi Gras looks like a fun time. Load the cheetah run Beautiful animal. Looking forward to the next safe travels my friend and take care.
The Super Bowl is still big it looks like you were in the garden around 230. The game started at 630, so that's why it was busy still
We watched the Superbowl in Germany and our KFC was packed .. 2 hour wait for a bucket..it was crazy xD greetings to Jen !!
3:48 Oh, yes, Super Bowl night is crazy every year. I actually make Doordash deliveries on Super Bowl Sunday and there usually isn't enough drivers out on Super Bowl Sunday since they are independent contractors and are at home watching the game.

I love Busch Gardens, I've been to one in Williamsburg, Virginia.
The Super Bowl gets bigger and bigger each year.
Hey Jacob I was wondering next time your at Disney can you ride their sky rides that transport you around the parks. Those were added far after I left the state and would love to see all what they offer.
You’re in my home town Jacob. Bush Gardens is pretty awesome. You should have done the night parade in downtown Ybor last night. That’s a crazy cool time. 50000 drunk pirates.
I was on one of the floats throwing beads! :)
I've been to BG Tampa and they hide the exit to trap you inside! Love your videos!!
Send the beads to some of your viewers. 😃
Great idea!
Awesome video as always Jacob and i watched the super bowl i enjoyed it it was a good game
Go to Hersheypark and use their three drop towers to build your courage.
No superbowl for me. Was in my shop and when i came down i thought the wife gave me orders she was going to watch the superbowl but she had golf on instead. It has been a few years since i watched any sports but the last superbowl was when janet jackson was the half time show many years ago.

More rollercoaster povs!

I would never go to a bar and watch the game with others unless you enjoy watching a bunch of rowdy, drunk people.
A Mississippi road trip sounds amazing. Are there similar things on both sides?
Wash beads with dish soap and give to trick or treaters. Or kids wherever you celebrate Independence Day.
