- A visit to Disney Oklahoma to check out what’s around town and if any references to theme park namesake . A walk down Main Street , eating food and looking at merchandise .
I have always respected how you vlog Adam. It is unlike any one else. You give the audience the opportunity to actually SEE what they’re looking at, and you don’t just jump cut around.
Keep on keeping on my dude.
👍🤘
Several years ago my car broke down in town, Disney Ok, so to pay it off I made pizzas at Dough Boys for 2 weeks. Best job I ever had.
"TheDailyWoo" Best therapy EVER! Thank You....
I agree. Way more effective than any therapist, and for free too. *:-)*
No fast passes needed in this Disney! Always good to see you back in Oklahoma!
Socialism is the only way out for you white man
My kids which are 8 and 4 really love watching you. They go around the house saying this is Adam the Woo and join me shall you 🤣😂. Your better than what's on tv.
Interesting, from what I found it was named for Wesley E. Disney, a member of the U.S. Congress in the 1930's
Wow, same initials too!
Cool
bbkangs I didn’t even notice. That’s cool 😎
Thank you 👍✔
Welcome back to Oklahoma!! Disney is my favorite place to off-road... busy during the summer.
Well he really committed to that running home bit! lol thanks for sharing, I love seeing these little old towns! Skipping rocks like Andy and Opie, a nod to some Mayberry goodness!
Adam that rock skipping blew me away!!!! I actually said “wtf?!?!” Out loud 🤣 amazing
I was so shocked too. Amazing!
I believe I heard it hit the rock on the side , did it ?
Joseph Heaney I think so! He should be in a contest somewhere 🤩
Looked like at little blue!
I truly enjoy your videos.Having Codi or the Carpet Bagger is a nice addition. Always entertaining. Love your Video Blog.
Never heard of Disney, Oklahoma....but now I have heard of it.
You've uncovered another town in Oklahoma I've never heard of and I've lived here my whole life.
Randal Brown don’t get out much do you? It’s only the biggest lake in the state.
Same
@@MrFalfa55 Disney's not a lake. Lol
It’s the northeast part of OK. My grandma lives near there.
@@kellyst05 I live a few miles from there, myself.
That is my kind of Disney, no crowds and low key! The pizza looked good!!
I want the Woo to start aggressively crushing coffee cups and water bottles during his intros again.
Yes yes yes
The Dam at Disney was the site of the drowning of Ward Mohs. Mohs was an umpire in the Kansas Oklahoma Missouri league. That is the same league where Mickey Mantle started his career in 1949. Mohs began his tenure in the KOM league in 1946.
Disney is a great little town with lots of great activities for nature lovers. I’m from OKC and Disney is one of the preferred spots in the state for camping and 4 wheeling.
That is Pensacola Dam on the Neosho River. It forms Grand Lake `O Cherokees in northeast Oklahoma. It is the largest man made lake in Oklahoma. OK-28 runs over the top of the dam, and there are two flood control spillways just to the east of the dam. These two spillways flow back into the main channel of the Neosho River on the south side of the dam. I know that town well. I live up the lake and have been in Disney many times.
Skipping rocks brings back the memories at grandmas house back when i was in 4th grade thanks my brother !!!
I wonder how many Oklahomian parents tell their kids "we're going to Disney" and drive out here.
Never have
I do it all the time. My kids always sneak in my room at night and stand over us with knives. We are a big family of pranksters!
Something my mother would have done to me, if she knew about the town.
The correct term is Oklahomies. Lol and I thought about doing it on April fools, but it’s 3 hours away 😂😂😂
My dad did all the time, because we fish there a lot. I live just a few miles down the road.
IMAGINE HOW MUCH LIFE WAS HERE 40 YEARS AGO!😉
It's a lake and off roading town. Gets very busy during the spring and winter. They are just a couple months early. Lots of videos on youtube.
More now with the offloading
Wow! Some serious throwback for me here! I was in that area almost 10 years ago. Stayed further north but came down to the Dam and took the tour. Had lunch at that very park in 2:53.
Been to (through) Disney several years ago we had a bicycle tour from Pryor to Branson, down into Arkansas and back.
Ha! I had no idea you were a Woo fan too!
@@RhettyforHistory Yeah, I picked up on him during his trip across the west end of Oklahoma and have been with him ever since. We seem to have traveled the same roads so many times. Pop over on my website www.jimforeman.com and look under cycling for a story about following Custer's March Route when he was searching for the winter camp of the Cheyenne. That was a fun bicycle tour.
Love the ending baby water fall is so relaxing . Love you Adam thank u 4 another amazing video . Your the best
Making the best of every situation is what you do best, Adam. I appreciate you and Cody stopping in the area. I've actually been on that piece of road. Be safe.
my old stomping grounds, many days of my youth spent in this area THANK YOU
I've lived in Oklahoma my whole life and have never even heard of Disney Oklahoma....crazy.... Love you Adam!!!!!
I wanna say it's around grove grand lake area?? Could be wrong
@@Amber-ym1uv right on grand lake. it's actually a really fun place to visit during the summer season
Ya'll showed up in the offseason. It's more lively during the summer.
Lol Definitely. It's one of my favorite places to go.
My rock throwing days are over I love the walk co d 🇦🇺🙃😎xxxx
What you wouldn’t know by looking at this town is that the lake being held by that old dam is one of the most prestigious lakes in the country. Pensacola Dam and Grand Lake O’ The Cherokees. Multi million dollar lake front properties, huge yachts and yacht clubs. 1300 miles of shoreline. My family used to eat burgers and ice cream at that old ice cream stand in the 80s! Love your videos man!
Oh yea!!! It was very crowded with boats, campers etc when we were there like 5 years ago of course it was summer tho!!!
It may not look like much now but from April through October Disney, OK is a happenin' place. Grand Lake is a massive reservoir, paradise for any kind of water sports. It's very lush and green, trees grow down to the waterline. My parents had a lake home there for many years. And yes, when they open those flood gates in the spring where you were standing it's a raging torrent of water. I could tell stories for hours about that lake. They have a riverboat that runs tours on the lake including night cruises. It used to be popular with nurses from a nearby mental hospital, we'd do the night cruise with those nurses and rarely went home alone. Well, I'll stop there and just say thank you very much Adam for taking me back to some very fond memories.
You two are hilarious!!! Co-D be careful running home its a long way back!!! Adam you do put out great content!!! Thanks guys!!! 🤣😂🤣😂❤💖
"Cheers!"
* clinks pizza slices together *
@@Indiana-j1t ???
Thats where I grew up! And yes lots more activity in the summer!
Talk about old school under Oklahoma Disney Oklahoma thank you Adam the woo what a nice blog
I have to say, all of these people seem as nice as can be to strangers.
The unknown town of Disney Island just became known. Another relaxing educational video. Thank you so much Adam and Cody you make folks smile.
(Shall you?) It is an honor.
Great log off shot!! Talk about nailing it!
That was a good looking pizza, I haven't had a pizza where the cheese stretches in a long time.
Wilfred Caraballo it’s really good pizza my cousin is the owner of the franchise and it’s amazing best pizza I have ever had!
@@jacksonlane2849 Made me hungry just looking at that pizza. And I just ate. :-)
A very cool location. Been there and photographed it many of times. Such a nice and calming place.
UrbanMan 2015 That’s awesome!
Tfs..my dad was born in Oklahoma..his b'day was yesterday..he passed last year..he would have turned 81..😔 i really miss him
That last shot is beautiful, clean water.
Hi Adam awesome vlog at the Unknown town of Disney Oklahoma. Very unique town and like the sound of the streaming water!!
This town deserves way more visitors. Cool place! Thanks Adam and Co-D. Safe travels 👍🏼🤘🏼😎
The springs were a nice way to wrap it up, very nice.
Cody looks like justinscarred with the hat and sunglasses
I laughed harder than I should have when Cody said, I'm going home. Woo: I've got the keys! Plus, I haven't seen a merry-go-round like that since the seventies.
Also just north of Disney off rt66 is an abandoned town called Picher. That is also a must stop. It had to be abandoned because of the over mining of the lead/zinc mines all over the area 30-100 years ago.
Google Cardin,Ok it was once a booming town where most of the lead in the US came from to manufacture bullets.
I was hoping for a Big Thunder Mountain reference and I was not disappointed. What a unique quiet little town!
This guy needs his own reality show the real small towns of empty America !!! He has a great voice
that is a town we in Oklahoma like to call a wheeling town... If you would have been there one month later it would have been crawling with 4wd vehicles for the Big Meat run.... Close to 15,000 people show up and have one hell of a time.. I go almost every year..Lots of fun. It's an awesome town. Where you were skipping rocks is an obstacle called "Lil Blue" Lots of crawlers crawl up it and put on a show!
Part of Rain Man was filmed in Guthrie, Oklahoma! 👍🏻
OMG! That Hurdy Gurdy looked like it could kill, but you did manage to get a ride... there was one in the local park when I was a kid. The road over weir was in need of repair, as were most things but the 'Disney Springs' area would be lovely in summer and water was so clear. All very interesting, thanks Adam.
Well that's another spot we would love to check out. Small town America, thanks again for sharing
They are there at the wrong time and it's best in late spring thru fall
@@loudieselj3165 Good to know thanks for sharing.
Your OFF-THE-BEATEN-PATH videos are best, so says me! So thanks for this one and all the rest.
8:00 The hidden Mickey is in the stones on the fireplace .
really liked the reference to the knot hole gang! I knew it was coming but you had me rolling! really really funny.
We would cross the dam going east to the Dam Hotel...the kids loved that joke. Then go down to Little Blue Park. Good to know the ice cream place is still there...lol
Co-d's angry walk/run home was the best.
Adam and Adam Jr. Adam would have so much fun taking his kids to Disney. Maybe someday.
A couple of rock skipping gold medal olympic champs right there! Hilarious ending to the vlog 🤣
Fun. I'll admit I logged onto Zillow fully expecting to see house prices below $100k. SURPRISE. California prices? California prices for homes on the river front?!?! It must be mighty fine fishing along that river. Shots along that creek were quite nice.
It’s not a River, it’s Grand Lake.
I spent a lot of summers just outside of Langley, on the other side of the bridge. I can remember when all those stores were open! There will be change!
You could have had a coney at the Sonic on the other side of the dam in Langley. You should have visited Salina, Strang, Spavinaw and Cleora, the other HUGE tourist attractions in that area. Visited the Crooked House back in the early 80's and it was interesting.
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
I like how they named the gopher Walt.
Awesome that you made over to Disney! Grand Lake is incredible. You should have come in the summer when everything is open. In the winter it’s dead as a door nail.
Adam, your videos are so refreshing. Thank you for showing us parts of America that we won’t ever see.
It seems like it's more busy in summertime. The town has an amphitheater there that has a production every year. I remember going to see it when I was in middle school.
I appreciate that you aren't judgmental on towns that have "less economy" than others, instead you see the fun and creativity in them. That's one reason I always enjoy watching your channel.
If you're up around Grove you might enjoy Harbor Village. I can't say what's there now, but when I was a kid my mom took us several times and it was neat. And next time you're in OK you should head over to Claremore and see the museums there and it's got a nice little downtown area that has music playing all day which I really wish our downtown would copy! :)
The church you showed is where we worshiped, our house was was about 200 yards north of it. The place where you were skipping rocks is called the “little blue hole”, it’s also where vehicle rock crawling events are held. The outdoor business used to be the “Dam Hotel”.
Hi Adam! Ya definitely gotta wear your new Chezzie’s Disney, OK t-shirt to Disney Land or Disney World and see if you get any comments from the Cast Members or fans. How much fun would that be? Awesome video btw! 👍🏻
I like the sign " Disney Island". Just take out the " is" part. Lol! 😆😆😆
If they had driven a little further down the road they would have been in Tiajuana, OK. . About fifty years ago Disney was a nice little town to get your bait before going to Little Blue. On the other side of the dam we used to stop in at Doc's Bait Shop. Sad to see it that way, but I bet there are still a lot of good people there.
I remember all that. Had some great times at LIttle Blue. I was friends with the man who worked at Doc's, I can't remember his name now but he always had the lowdown on what was going on in the area, it was always my go-to bait shop. I remember one time when the river below the dam was really flooded down towards Strang, and he told me about "cow patty catfish'. The flooded cow pastures were full of catfish feeding on the worms under the cow patties. The water was only a few feet deep and you could see channel cat tails sticking out of the water rooting for worms. All you had to do was put on some hip boots, put a nightcrawler on a hook under a bobber set about 1 foot deep and they would slam it. It was like bonefish on the flats in the Bahamas. We slayed 'em for about a week that way.
That creek was beautiful 👍🏻
Steve B Agreed!
Awesome Video! Enjoyed every minute even the rock throwing!!!!
I have lived in Oklahoma for dang near 65 years and never heard of Disney. Loved this video! Thanks awesome job!
Next time you come through Oklahoma , I can show you Twister filming locations, the 101 Ranch, the burial site of bill pickett, The Marland mansion, etc!
acatic80 And Disney isn’t? It would be worth it, twister museum, all locations, etc. it would defiantly be worth the time!
Just about 45 min off I-35!
This one was funny. I'd go crazy living in that town...there is nothing! Love you Adam!
“Disney Springs??” 😂😂😂
I still miss your vlog collection. At least these videos help make up those old videos. Thank you for all
The woo is back to his roots and boy am I happy!
Just like the Disney you're more familiar with, this place picks up in the summer. :-)
We had a family reunion down that way only on the North side of the river. If I remember correctly there was hardly any water in the river the Summer we where there. A pretty area as much as I remember, It's been many years.
Cool!!!! Rock Skipping!!!! I haven’t Done That in a Very Long Time!!!! Awesome. CJ
I'm surprised the Disney Corp haven't tried to sue the town for copyright infringement. The fact that the name of the town came first isn't the sort of thing that would usually stop them.
Should of knocked on the fire dept to get a Disney Fire Dept sticker. That would be rad! Keep on keepin' on guys. FUN road trip
Is it just me or are the Chezzies Cat's sunglasses reminiscent of the old ATW Disney World shades???
Yes.. very good to review.. Highly suggestible, colourful and reasonably nutritious. A MUST DO..
Adam, U allways be funny youtuber.. seriously ! 16:29 Cody eating the pizza slice and talking hahahaha and 20:12 --> more laugh comes through while Cody walking and running straight ahead
I knew Disney had fun for all ages! I mean where else can you do rock skipping, and see such a great victory dance?! That's the way you WOO!
Awesome vlog, don't recall seeing a merry-go-round like that since the 70s, definitely first time I've seen a live bait vending machine. I did notice it's Chezzies and not Cheezies. Wish I could do that stuff all the time.
Whow what a quaint town!! Interesting place. The pizza was mouth watering. Great vlog guys!!
the whole video was worth it just for the Disney springs joke! haha
You are living my dream life. Seriously considering retiring early and following in your footsteps.
try visiting in summertime as most places would be open then
you know that Beer is Jeep reversed & upside down
Thanks for taking us along with you Mr. Woo. I look forward to the videos. You know how to enjoy life.
you 2 are a good team. great videos.
Wow, the real 'Radiator Springs'. lol
I just watched a 20 minute video about Disney Oklahoma with a big smile on my face. Incorporated in 1959, definitely stole the name 👍
"I'm joining the Knothole Gang."
Adam. No. That was awful.
Oh wow! At the beginning you are on the highway I took all the time from my home in Tulsa to my grandparents lake house near Langley on Grand Lake (Langley is right across the dam from Disney). What a surprise to see you start the video at the Crooked Little House. Sad to see it closed. Used to sell peanut brittle and the like there back in they day. Right off I-44, west of Adair. Looks like Luther's (classic hole in the wall, take-away diner, in Adair) has closed, too! In Langley, just across from Disney, Frosty and Edna's (local diner) has gone to different management and is called Ailey's, I just read online. Used to be a cool arcade and restaurant called PJ's in Disney, too! Pretty sure that was the building by the rusty sign. Guess it's gone now, too. How sad. All my childhood haunts with my grandparents are going by the wayside. At least Pistol Pat's is still open. My grandpa, my siblings and I would sometimes walk around on the rocks below the dam. Disney and the lake towns are mostly summertime places, which is why Pistol Pats was closed. I know everything looks run down and in Disney it really is, but if were to drive around the lake just a few miles from there you would see half a million dollar and million dollar plus mansions on the lake front everywhere. The lake extends for many, many miles north from there, as that is the extreme south end of the lake. Go back in the summertime and you will see much more activity, including hundreds (or thousands) of people out on the lake in their boats. Grand Lake is the premier recreational lake in NE Oklahoma.
