that’s probably one of the most realistic celebrity animatronics i’ve ever seen.
It really blew me away
My grandfather knew Colonel Sanders. He did a lot of traveling for his business, and happened through Corbin, and spent the night at the Colonel's hotel a few times. This is long before the Colonel became a celebrity. I like to think the room they have in the museum is one of the ones my grandpa stayed in. It's probably not, but it could be, and that's what I like to think.
My uncle was in Army with Elvis Presley. 😊❤
Jacob head home immediately! The weather is dangerous and this trip is not worth the rises ❤❤
My uncle was the colonel
I have mad respect for ANYONE who will stand on a scale, without hesitation, knowing he has a large viewing audience. Way to go!!!
I have no problem sharing my weight, people can make fun of me if they want
You're wrong. People look up to you. Including myself. I am fairly new on here, but I see you have a loyal group of subs who look up to you. You have a cute and bubbly girlfriend. You bought your own house recently (again, lol, that's so cool), and you're a great dad. Your channel is fun, and your subscriber list is moving pretty rapidly in the right direction. Congratulations, not only can I not find anything to make fun of, I see so much to look up to. Forget the ones who hide behind a screen trying to make you feel down. Keep on being you! 💜☮️🎶🐾🇺🇸💓
Thank you! I’ve learned not to care what toxic people have to say
@@TheCarpetbagger EXACTLY 👍🏼
@@braves9652. Well said! I agree 💯 %
Col. Sanders owned a house on my street as a kid. He was always great with the neighborhood kids during his years living in the Toronto area. He did alot of great things for the community back then.
Ive traveled to Louisville a few times following my Clemson Tigers football team. Game day routine is The Louisville Slugger factory tour mid morning. Then head to Churchill Downs to pretend to understand horse racing for a few hours. From there its a short walk to the UofL football stadium. You can just leave your car in the race track parking lot. Its a very unique and affordable way to spend a game day. Always end the day with a Hot Brown. UofL fans are always very nice, great trip if FB is your thing. Go Cards!
You are a Tiger fan traveling to Louisville, and I am a Cards fan living 20 mins from Clemson. What a very small world.
That Colonel Sanders is amazing. Even better that some at Disney.
I feel so blessed ..ive met Col.Sanders and the Carpetbagger !!!
Definitely knew Colonel Sanders first name was Harland. That Colonel Sanders animatronic is awesome!
I live by the Kroger makes the garland of roses and go watch them make it every year. Festive month in Louisville. We have paddle boat races, fireworks, parades, and hot balloon races In April. Come to some of those events.
Love these museums! You are the best and I love that we get to go to so many places with you! Thank you so much for all of your hard work! ❤️ Tell Jenn we all said hello! 🤗🤗🤗
I still remember the time I was sitting in class and the other kids started laughing at me and bullying me because I called KFC "Colonel Sanders".
🎶 raindrops on cameras and kentucky fried chicken, these are a few of my favorite things
You may not know this but KFC is pretty big in Malaysia 😂 we do everything with KFC, birthday 🎉, celebration, holidays and dinner. Also we know the first name because every restaurant have little reading section about Col Sanders 🍗. Fun fact i once working at KFC because i really love KFC 😂🍗❤
Had no clue what Col. Sanders first name was! I’m with Jen on this one!
My father met Col. Sanders when he came to Australia as part of a delegation of American businesses. I have a photo of them sitting next to each other chatting at a dinner held in honour of Colonel Sanders and he's ancient and wearing his trademark white suit and string tie. It's surreal. Awesome to see where he's from.
Cool story! Did they serve him chicken? 😅
Welcome back to Louisville Kentucky you definitely need to come back for the Kentucky Derby and festival that starts 2 weeks before the derby with the largest fireworks show in the nation
Fun video! And the Col. Sanders animatronic is hands down the most amazing, lifelike one I’ve ever seen!
"No honey sauce on my chicken wings!" 😂
Thanks for the wonderful video Jacob as I have family in Corbin ky and loved stopping in at the Sanders Cafe & Museum and have never visited the one in Louisville Ky but I have been in the Louisville International Airport and they have a KFC inside. lol I was raised on his chicken and love it to this day 🍗♥️
I'm a horse lover and I've been to the Kentucky Derby Museum but it was long ago, looks like it's time for a revisit. Your intro was filmed at the grave of Barbaro. His story is a tragic one and made me question my lifelong love of thoroughbred racing. Barbaro was a magnificent horse, undefeated when he won the 2006 Kentucky Derby by 6.5 lengths, an accomplish last achieved in the 1940s. His jockey, riding him for the first time, said he never asked Barbaro for more power or speed, that horse did it for the sheer joy of competing. I'm convinced he would have been a Triple Crown winner if he hadn't fractured his right hind leg during the Preakness just two weeks after his Derby win. It was a catastrophic and graphic injury, broadcast in real time to millions of horse racing fans around the world. He underwent surgery and rehab at the New Bolton Center, Univ of Pennsylvania. Despite the best efforts of his outstanding medical team, Barbaro developed laminitis in his left hind leg and eight months after his spectacular "Run for the Roses," America's greatest living race horse was humanely euthanized, and buried at Churchill Downs. The whole thing was traumatic and heartbreaking. Your video just sent me down a Barbaro rabbit hole on YT. I just re-watched "The Story of the Hero Barbaro" and now I'm crying again. It's a sweet little documentary. Even if you don't know or care about racing, you have to appreciate this horse's spirit.
Always enjoy going to the Kentucky Derby!!!! 🐴🙂
i knew it, but then again, i get most of the questions right on jeopardy
Jacob is wearing Denim!!! Looking good Carpetbagger. Fancy.
I live about two hours from where secretariat was raised and trained. They are buried at the the same place he came from. we used to pass the farm on the way to my grandparents. winfield farms.
I am glad we saw that. thank you.
This one's in the feed bag 🐎
Very educational Jacob-thank you.
Man, it is SO NICE to have you back to daily uploads! And that Churchill Downs was AMAZING!!! I was wondering if they'd have something on "The Shoe". I met his wife at his house when I was delivering for a pharmacy in San Marino, CA in the early 80's. NICE HOUSE! LOL!!!
Scare everyone start singing 😂❤
I knew “Harlan” was Colonel Sanders first name, but I was born in the 1960s - so I grew up watching Kentucky Fried Chicken tv commercials. I think he referred to himself as “Harlan Sanders” in some television advertising.
Never heard Col. Sanders' first name before in my life.
No, I did not know that was his name. You learn somethibg new everyday
Imagine a world where nobody recognizes him by looking at him. He was on an old game show in the early 60s "What's my line?" where celebs have to guess what someone's job is. There he sat and they asked him questions trying to figure out what he did for a living. He was even introduced as Colonel Sanders. The clip is here on RUclips
To be honest, I didn't know Col. Sanders first name. But thanks to you Jacob I do now. Thank you.
We may finally know the colonel sanders herb and spices 😂
Your leg position while standing on the horse was great! Good heels down! 👍
Who knew they had a Disney level animatronic Col. Sanders to greet you? That was cool 🙂
I still have the Time & Newsweek mags of Secretariat, the week he won the Triple Crown in 1973.
As an 11 year old farm girl, I had horses on the brain LOL😂
My sister is a Kentucky Colonel.
Getting in early to request a Carpetbagger museum!
Liked the Col Sanders museum, great animatronic, the Derby museum was way more interactive than I would have thought. Glad you had a tour guide, you lucked out there.
Wow, that’s a great animatronic figure of Colonel Sanders, looks exactly like him.
Wow, that’s a great Automatronics of him ❤
The Drews’getleagle part had me laughing so hard hahaha
So, if you come through Arkansas on US 67, you need to stop in Walnut Ridge, Arkansas to "Do The Beatles Walk"...it has an interesting story...not worth going out of your way for but the "Rock In Roll Highway" (old US 67) is so worth going on.
I had no clue what his first name is, and I was born and raised in Kentucky.😊
I feel like most southerners know his first name😂
Love this history on Uncle Harley
Never knew his first name. Thanks for the info😊
Thanks. Both those museums look really cool. The colonel Sanders animatronic is really life like. Didn’t even realize they had the colonel sanders bucks. I did know colonel ssndrrs first name is Harland. We even had a person dressed as colonel sanders walking around the neighborhood on Halloween 😝
The greatest sin Eric Cartman ever committed was eating all the skin off the KFC chicken 😭
You riding on that horse at the Kentucky Derby Museum made me laugh. That museum would be my dad’s dream to go to since he loves horse racing. Have fun Jacob! 😊😊
I love KFC coleslaw mushed potatoes and tenders mm yummy now I want KFC 😂.
Wow I gotta check out the museum thanks for posting honestly I had no idea what his 1st name was I know he was a sweetheart be safe on your travels keep up the good work
@@nadiaborzacchini6858 I love the chicken from KFC as well @nadiabozacchini6858
This was awesome ty Jacob
Impressive animatronic Colonel Sanders 😮
Ronnie Turcotte was Secretariat's jockey, he's a Canadian, can you imagine what a ride that must have been.
Very interesting. Thank you for going to Louisville. Safe travels
2 great museums labor horses lube chicken and I didn't know Colonel Sanders first name great video Jacob take care and safe travels.
Indiana Fried Chicken just doesn't have the same ring to it. I love animatronics, especially the Captain L. Ernst one in the USS Midway Museum in San Diego.
3:00 I think I heard his name once but forgot it until now!
I went to Kentucky and somewhere I believe in Louisville there is Bible mini golf. That's something right up your alley!
He was in the town we were living in at the opening of a franchise store of his at the same time my father was taking me to the Navy recruiter to go to boot camp. Saw him cut the red ribbon. July 1976.
Glad you were in Louisville KY! Wish I would have ran into you.🙂
As the late, great Colonel Sanders once said "Im too drunk to taste this chicken"
Awesome looking forward to all the stuff he's going to show us in this video I love learning about all the stuff in the museums his museum videos are the second favorite videos he uploads since I love learning about stuff. Hopefully you have a safe travels when driving to your next location.
Try the Kentucky Derby pie it’s so delicious!! The Kentucky derby brown entree it’s good also!!
About Colonel Harland Sanders:
While living in my native country, the Netherlands, i only knew about KFC, being American fast food service with perhaps 3 locations in the entire country.
While working in Amerika, i actually visited the local KFC where i learned about Colonal Sanders. An amazing and amiable entrepeneur with a good heart for his personel.
But until know i have never heard his first name Harland being mentioned.
Thanks for this great video. I think it is one of your best. Colonel Sanders was a major celerity when I was growing up. Our family enjoyed his chicken many times. Our family always enjoyed horse racing but mostly went to our local racetracks around Philadelphia. When I got older I made it a point to go to the Kentucky Derby. I got to attend the 100th running and that attendance stood for a record Derby day for many years. The grandstand and other stands were added later so now even more people can attend on Derby Day. I have not been back to Louisville since the Derby museaum was built so thanks for giving us a tour. By the way there is another good museum for horse racing at Saratoga, NY. Where there is another old historic race track that runs what’s called the summer Derby named the Travers steak. It is run in late August and also has a big party flavor to it. Have fun continuing bringing us to places we may never get to see otherwise but do remember to take rest breaks so we can look forward to many future adventures.
I did know his name was Harland. I met the man in the 1970’s.
Great video Jacob nice Kentucky derby Muslim of the derby a)ways wanted to see it in person
Once a year at Kentucky Derby time, the local rich ladies drinking club hires me to dress up as the Colonel. I have the full white suit and wig and paint my mustache white. I get free noshes, bloody Marys and a bucket of chicken. It's a finger licking good time!
What a cool museum 😊
the greatest 2 minutes in sports
That's kind of strange that Kentucky is giving out the rank of Colonel to non military.
I have heard that in Japan it's a tradition to eat KFC on Christmas. Yum!😊
The animatronic Colonel was amazing! Looks like you jumped a little when he started talking!😂
Enjoyed the video, great job ! I was aware of col. sanders first name, I worked at a KFC for six years in my home town,,, best job I ever had I loved every minute of it. Keep up the amazing work on your channel I always enjoy your content. Be safe in your travel.
That animatronic is better than the ones at Disney! Did you see where Colonel Sanders is buried? It's called Cave Hill Cemetery in Louisville, and it has the same bust! Also Muhammad Ali is buried there, and there's a cool magician statue memorial.
I highly doubt that he went there or even the Louisville Slugger museum. We he post the choices....I automatically that Louisville Slugger. Heck, I didn't even think about the Colonial Sanders, KFC, or Kentucky Derby. Personally, I think Louisville Slugger is bigger, but that's just me.
I had no idea that Colonel Sanders name was Harland.
I knew Harland. I mean, I knew it was his name.
Looks amazing 👏
As a native Louisvillian, if you attend the Derby, make it a point to partake in some of our pre-Derby events! We have Thunder Over Louisville, the Great Balloon Race, the Pegasus Parade, bed races, the Steamboat race, & other events around town two weeks before the Derby takes place. (& yes, it is common knowledge for most people I know here in KY that Colonel Sander’s first name is Harland)
I second Thunder Over Louisville!
I came here to say this exact same thing! Do they still do the balloon glow before the balloon race? (I was born and raised in Louisville but now live in SC)
@@stoshie1017 yes, they do- I forgot to mention it :)
LOVED THIS
I worked for KFC for number of years and NEVER heard his first name. Learned it from Carpetbagger just like Jenn!😊
Thank you for the video. Not sure if you are still around the Louisville area, but if you are, you might check out the Claudia Sanders restaurant. That is colonel sanders and his wife Claudia’s restaurant. If you ever head up to Illinois, I hear they have some new McDonald’s restaurant. (cosmcs I think?)
Cracking the safe at 10:00 won't do it, there are two keyholes in the dial buttons at the right so forget it!
Had no idea a Norman Rockwell Sanders painting even existed. 😎
Thursday before the derby is considered Thurby which the locals take advantage off.
I heard a great story about Col Sanders on the Dollop podcast, apparently he would go into KFC's and complain about the gravy saying it was nothing like his original recipe, the press picked up on it and they had to pay him to stop.
We went to the museum in Corbin and it was super cool! Very neat stuff to see just didnt eat there bc there was too many people. Awesome video!
Love your videos! My husband and I watch you everyday.
I am so glad that you found the Colonel Sanders Museum. I mentioned this in a previous video. This is a great museum. Thanks for sharing.
I loved Colonel Sanders. I grew up with the old KFC restaurants, and the rotating KFC bucket. That animatronic is pretty impressive! Johnny Depp was also given a Kentucky colonel ship.
The Animatronic is pretty impressive! Does it look to anyone else like he's holding a cellphone in his non-bucket holding hand?
I went to Bellarmine University right down the road from that, so every time I went to school, I would see it when I exited off the Watterson Expressway onto Newburg.
Wonderful tours as always ❤️ 😊
You should make it over to Colonial Williamsburg and Jamestown in VA
I was today years old when I found out his first name… and I live in Kentucky 😂
I knew The Colonel's first name, because I read his book.
It includes the time he shot a man dead in an actual gun fight.
He was never charged, as it was ruled self defense.
His pre-celebrity life was very dangerous and hard-scrabble. A very interesting person, not at all the cartoon mascot he's seen as now.
I love learning from these vids. The Colonel Sanders animatronic looked very lifelike and impressive. Those Derby outfits are insane. Lol Stay safe!
You whip your horse back and forth
I was born in Louisville & grew up right outside of Henryville where Harland was born and raised! Indi's chicken is where it's at!
The colonel sanders was a railfan I saw him on on a railroad car being pulled by a 1225 steam locomotive in the late 60s.
