Thank you for watching! Here is my previous six gun experience (my last time out there) ruclips.net/video/SfK4-8aoh60/видео.html
Wild Wild West of Florida! Back in my day youngens wanted to be cowboys and astronauts. Fun times fun times. As always thx 4 taking us all along on your wild adventure
😢😢😢😢😢
Morning TJ. I want to thank you for these years I've been subscribed to your channel for all the information that you've provided. Yesterday was the 1st Con I've ever attended. It was great and my daughter had a blast. Thanks again buddy
Happy 2024 Jay! My grandparents lived 30 minutes north of Ocala. Never went to Six Gun Territory before they closed, but always heard folks talk about it. Thank you for this!
I remember this theme park and went with my family and I remember riding the train and the train stopped and these cowboys were robbing the train. It was so neat to see the shootouts. It's great to see this place bring back a piece of history. I will have to come check it out. Thanks for sharing!
Reminds me of Guntown Mountain,Cave City,Kentucky. Thanks Jay.
I remember my parents taking us there as kids. Michael Landon ( Little Joe Cartwright from Bonanza) was there and got a picture with him. Good memories.
My parents took me to SGTT back in the 60's. I remember the gunfights and of course those TRAINS! Thanks for posting!
Oh wow. This is so great. Thank you so much for posting this. I had no idea this went on. Born and raised in Florida from 1964. Six Gun Territory was the first theme park I ever went to. I remember my Dad had bought me a cap gun with a western holster. And I put it on and wore it around the park. Then I rode a ride that spins and went up 90 degrees and my cap gun slid out of my holster. You could it hitting the metal of the ride as it fell. I was so upset, crying. I think I was like 4 or 5. We looked for the gun, but never found it. I can’t remember if my Dad bought me another one, but I sure remember how upset I was. And oh how well I remember that ride! I don’t think they have the ride any,ore. The floor would fall down as you were spinning, and the force would keep you pushed to the wall. I think they discontinued them as it’s been years since I’ve seen one. Any way, I’ve forwarded this video to my kids, that maybe they will take my grandkids one day to this Six Gun Territory Reunion. And hats off to the Kirby family for keeping their ranch, and not selling out to developers. My cousins sold the last of their old family ranch in St Cloud in 2021. Their great grandfather had started it back in the mid 1800’s. I sure hope more people hear about this Six Gun Territory Reunion, so it will support the Kirby Ranch and also keep the memory of it going strong. Thank you again.
In California we had an amusement park called frontierland. It was all old west. I spent a lot of my childhood going there. It has been gone for a long time now but this video brought back some happy memories!
"Six Gun Territory" A Fun & Westernful Place for the Entire Family to Visit & Where the whole town is "WANTED".🤠
22:08 "Got any flamingos in there" 😂

Awesome adventure as always appreciate you sharing... unfortunately Six Gun Territory closed before I was old enough to go...but I do have fond memories of Silver Springs and Rainbow Springs with my grandparents...and my first visit to Disney was one year after the park opened..was just tall enough to ride Space Mountain 😊😎🇺🇸😇👍🤠
Omg Jay, so cool. I love this. Have you ever done the spooky train? Very cool. Glad the rain stopped long enough for you to record. Great video.
Yes scary train is one of my faves! Thank you my friend
Dude! I was messaging Adam about Six Gun a while back. It was the first theme park we went to when we moved to FL I have some great memories of it.
My parents went to six gun territory back in the 70s. I never got to experience it. But this was cool to see.
I believe it was Grimmlifecollective that featured Spider Baby, which I would later find on RUclips to watch. Nice that you were able to meet Ms. Washburn from that movie and so many others 😎👍
Cool stuff! As always well done
Since I am a “transplant” I did not know and which I went. Thanks for this. Rather enjoyable.
Gotta love Captain Spalding RIP
Thanks for awesome video

Thank you, such an interesting and fun vlogg, that steak looked good, red meat is good for you.
Looks like a good time. Cannot wait till we are living there so we can go to places like that. Anyway, happy national Pizza Day. I figured if any two people would appreciate that it would be you and Cris.
Loved that when I went there when i was a kid
Hey Tampa Jay. This is an awesome video. I live here in Seffner. This is something that I wouldn't mind checking out sometime
Yeehaw!!!
Orig. train in Jefferson Bayou Tx. operating. since mid/late 80s.
I went to Six Gun in 1971ish. Also made a Six Gun tribute video but I deleted it. It wasn’t to my liking. Maybe someday I’ll post it
Great video when the next when is the next one keep the good can't wait to watch it jy😂
Wasn't that the kid from Terminator 2 sitting next to the autograph lady?
No, but he was actually in The Walking Dead.
The one thing they need to ad is an intercom system, or micro phones for the actors, the narrator how ever is the only way you know what is going on, it would be like at KNOTTTS BERRY farms, you can hear every one.
Tampa jay when are we gonna see the woo and jay road side attractions serious
Would love to. Bound to happen.
Both the Six Gun locomotives, as well as a few other former theme park narrow gauge locomotives are in fact at Kirby Family Farm.
6:42 - At the end of the siding is Elizabeth, a steam outline locomotive built for Opryland. When Opryland closed, she sat at Astroworld and later SFOG before coming here. In front of her is one of the original Opryland coaches, followed by one of the Great America coaches (like the ones currently used) originally from California's Great America. #19, the locomotive pulling the train (driven by yours truly) is also from CGA and was converted from steam to diesel when Marriott built both Great America Parks (the other being Six Flags Great America, which still has its trains)
The red and green locomotive with the missing funnel was originally #7 Robert Lee and from Six Gun. She does run, but being pure steam, she does need some work. The other Six Gun locomotive, #4 Sam Houston, has not run in decades and is barely visible in the background at 33:45
Beatrice is also from Opryland and ran at Six Flags America for a number of years. She was converted to diesel while at Opryland.
The Iron Horse locomotive was originally used by a logging company and is built to standard gauge

Born and raised Floridian, been going to the theme parks my entire life, and Six Gun Territory is my earliest memory of a theme park, even WDW. I LOVED this place when I was a kid! Thanks for sharing
Mornin Jay,.!! Awesome stuff !!
I lived nearby and went to Six Gun Territory many times when I was a kid. Also did Cypress Gardens (now Legoland), Weeki Watchee, Silver Springs, Gatorland and Busch Gardens. I have two distinct memories from Six Gun. The first is don’t stand near the cowboys when they shoot, it is quite painful to the ears. Back then, the tourists were intermingled with the actors during the shootouts. They would start without warning and you never knew where one would jump out from. The second is there was a house that was built on a slant with optical illusions throughout which made walking through it very interesting.
Good morning Jay! Your roadside series of videos are great!
Thank you Ronald
I couldn't help but hear the theme from the movie "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly!'...Excellent!
Good morning 🌞 Always enjoy videos ! Next time u need cowboy hat 🤠 Steaks looked delicious, Thankyou 🤗
Thank you Vicky !
Did I actually see a set of Shark Jaws in the General Store 🤔 That was Definitely a Fun Experience. Thanks for Sharing your continued Adventures 😎✌️
I came home on leave from the military and some high school friends and I went to Six Gun after it was closed down. It was in the summer of 86 and the town was looking haggard.
It was night time and I swear that place was haunted.
As usual, Tampa Jay creates another great video.
My mom used to work at Six gun, so I got in free. Many memories.
FWIW: I have been living in North Carolina since the mid-1990s, but I was born and raised in St Pete.
My parents took me to 6-GUN TERRITORY just once, back in the earlier to middle 1970s.

Tampa Jay look again! 7:57
“Livery” Stables 😂
Digger and son; funeral parlor 😂😂😂
lol no flamingos in the Wild West!!! lol 😆
That was really fun to watch the festivities and program unfold in real time 👍🏼👀😆🤩
Another entertaining episode! Thanks!!!
I remember my Dad took my brother and myself there back in 1965. Almost 79. I can remember having a good time. Good memories. 🤩
We went to Six Gun Territory every spring break when school let out. Two ways in the SkyRide or by Train . I remember the train robberies on the way in. Also it would go through the Indian encampment. The bank robberies and gun fights. The undertaker would come out and try to measure the bodies during the gunfight and would run back into the funeral home when he got shot at. Our favorite part was running out when the gun fight was over racing other kids to pick up the blanks as souvenirs. Walking into the old building was like going back in time. The amusement park was so much fun. Bumper cars, Round Up, Tilt-a-Whirl, the huge slide. Merry- go- round the video arcade and the tilted house you walked through. . This was a place our parents could turn us loose and the gun fights we would meet back up with them. Some of my fondest youth memories was there.
Tampa Jay, I’m a Miami Guy. And we retired 5 years ago up to High Springs Florida….Thanks for the content….
Hey Jay! What's up? Was so stoked about the next Abandoned places episode! Was really looking forward to it !!!
I think you mean the "hell hole". They had a ride like that in Wildwood New Jersey. I was born in 1959. I attended Sox Gun Territory when I was about four or five. I remember a setting much closer to that of the old western towns. The shops were on either side of a dirt road. I remember a bank robber and shootout. I also remember riding in an authentic stage coach. I put my hand out the window to touch thw wheel as it turned. I remember my day telling me to bring my hand back inside. I don't remember much else. I did have my cap guns and a western hat with a spiral lace around the brim. I suppose lots of kids were like to hat given all the western tv shows that were on back then.
Excellent episode Jay. I love watching your segments especially with everything that’s going on in our country, I turn to your channel to escape from the bs. Keep up the great work!
I went to six gun territory 1975
As a child, it was a real wild west town, the shoot out reenactment with bank and sherif, was like something right out of a movie, and real native Americans performed there cultural dances, place had rides ,
What a cool experience I was able to have there
As a very young child in the early 70's, I somehow manage to wander off on my own at Six Gun Territory. My mother frantically tried to find me. I am part Indian and even looked Indian especially from behind. Well my mother searched everywhere including the Indian Reservation and there she saw an Indian boy from behind that was exactly my size and age at that time. My mother hurriedly over and grab the boy by the arm, never looked at his face and started walking off with him to leave the park believing he was me. She got hollered at then confronted and about that time I reappeared and then she realized the error she had made. I'm not exactly sure if it was true or not but the boy she mistaken me for was the Chief's son.
Morphine? No Thanks I've had enough...lol
I'm from fort Lauderdale born an raised
I've got pictures of when we use to go

Tampa ask your contact at bloomtown if the cowboys are also sass (single action shooting society) shooters in the area … then ask them to invite you to aand give you a tour to a saturday shoot … i did this in western pa and loved to play cowboy and shoot the old style firearms …. My sass name is “silver bullet bill” … take care jay
