There seems to be loads of fibreglass dinos around America! I found your channel when I found your video about the Flintstones roadside attraction and I've been addicted to your videos since. You've inspired me to FINALLY start exploring more around my own counties here the UK.
Jurassic Park's Velociraptors are the size that they are because of a Palaeontologist named Gregory S. Paul. He decided that Velociraptor and Deinonychus (The Jurassic Park raptor) were actually different species of the same animal, and for a few years, they were the American Velociraptor antirrhopus and the Mongolian Velociraptor mongoliensis (The original, smaller one). Michael Crichton, the author of the Jurassic Park novel, decided to include Velociraptor antirrhopus in his book, but by the time the movie adaptation came out, Deinonychus was separate from the Velociraptor genus. This also the reason that the Velociraptor skeleton in Jurassic Park is being unearthed in Montana rather than Mongolia. Utahraptor was discovered as Jurassic Park was in post-production, so the filmmakers, in a way, almost predicted the discovery Dilophosaurus in reality is a much larger animal than portrayed in Jurassic Park. It would have likely been the apex predator of its ecosystem, the Kayenta Formation, and preyed upon the basal prosauropods of the area. It probably wouldn't have needed a frill to survive, as it wouldn't have had any predators hunting it. Its crests were large, hollow, and connected to the animal's respiratory system, so could possibly be used as Resonating chambers to create loud, booming sounds.
Thanks for another interesting video, Jacob! Dinosaurs are always fun...especially fiberglass ones. My favourite dino is an ankylosauraus. Thanks for explaining the jokes. 🤣 Don't sacrifice your Crocs. I have old ones that are too worn out to wear but I am so attached to them. Lol "Underneath the colours of flesh, we are all the same"... metallic and cold. That was so neat that you got to hold Magnolia the Gator! It was cool that the moon was shining through the star you posed in front of when entering Texas. I cannot wait to get to a Buc-ees. They are the amusement park of gas stations.
its so cool to see you holding the gator in my town in jennings to bad you couldnt see the big oil rig that was destroyed in hurricane laura it was there my whole life and im 31
Near the big metal frog, Monsieur Jacques, is the Candyland Cottage. You can load up on ice cream, fudge and a thousand different kinds of candy! Kids love that too!
I can almost feel that excited road trip feeling as I watch these videos, if you know what I mean? It’s a happy kind of physical sensation that makes everything fun. I always feel that way on road trips. You should sing in every video.
I think we passed each other when you went through Rayne! Nonc Kev's has an awesome Tasso Sandwich. I'm glad you saw the little frogs scattered around town. The Chamber of Commerce has maps of their locations, plus they have a Frog Pond behind their office! And if you check with them ahead of time, it's possible to hold a frog! Thursday afternoon I was at the Fire Museum in Beaumont for my channel, and visited the giant fire hydrant for the second time. The museum is pretty cool if you get to go back. I was attacked by the dinosaur that banged his tail on the wall at Prehistoric Park. That room was pure chaos when I went through! Safe travels, and have fun in Houston!
Fun park, and fun comments. i was so happy you helped explain some of the dinosaur jokes ;) It is a good idea to have these dinosaur jokes along with the historic information in that they'll help the smaller children feel more happy along all these great and vicious carnivores.
This is the second time I Ve seen this video and I commented very positively before, but I Must comment again because your shoe tree analysis was SO creative and philosophical and I loved it!!!!! As well as your frog analysis, too. Your trip through the dinosaur park was hilarious!!! Really dug the frog mural town,too!!! I think you have an excellent talent for unearthing unusual places in the American panorama and making them seem very special!!! That is a rare talent and your constant narration is witty and interesting and fun!!! I love how you are with the animals, like Magnolia the baby alligator, and I always look forward to you riding whatever child's toy ride you come across!! Your a delight to watch!!!! Attaboy, Carpetbagger!!!!
Ahhhh Buc-ees. I’m craving a pulled pork sandwich now. Can’t wait to get back to Texas this year. Have fun Jacob. I was hoping Dallas/Ft Worth but it’s looks like Corpus Cristi
I am from Lake Charles. Follow your adventures. The Gator in the red outfit was modeled after a local mayor and senator [Mrs. Willie Mount] The Bucees brisket is good but, try the pulled pork sammy!!!
I love this ‘Chose your own Adventure’ road-trip so far Jake! The best places to go to and eat at in Corpus Christi are: USS Lexington Museum on the Bay, Texas State Aquarium, Selena Museum (Bidi Bidi Bom Bom is my favorite son from her), Texas Surf Museum, Snoopy’s Pier, Bookoos, Corpus Christi Museum of Science and History, Britton-Evans House and Sidbury House, and horses on the beach.
So the joke is that the park had actually brought Utahraptors back to life but their pop star scientists insisted they were velociraptors? Also, great place for a dino park. Louisiana countryside looks like a primeval forest a lot of the time, so all it needed was the statues. Also, I never thought a lengthy and unnecessarily elaborate explanation of an obvious joke could be funnier than the real joke. That was very cute. And in honor of the bank frog, I share this joke in case anyone here hasn’t heard it: A frog goes into a bank and approaches the teller. He can see from her nameplate that her name is Patricia Whack. ‘Ms. Whack, I'd like to get a $30,000 loan to take a holiday.’ Patty looks at the frog in disbelief and asks his name. The frog says his name is Kermit Jagger, his dad is Mick Jagger, and that it's okay, he knows the bank manager. Patty explains that he will need to secure the loan with some collateral. The frog says, ‘Sure. I have this,’ and produces a tiny porcelain elephant, about an inch tall, bright pink and perfectly formed. Very confused, Patty explains that she'll have to consult with the bank manager, and disappears into a back office. She finds the manager and says, ‘There's a frog called Kermit Jagger out there, who claims to know you and wants to borrow $30,000. And he wants to use THIS as collateral.’ She holds up the tiny pink elephant. ‘I mean, what in the world is this?’ The bank manager looks back at her and says...... ‘It's a knickknack, Patty Whack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone.’
You made it to my hometown! That's so neat. When they first gave us the fire hydrant, I went to the grand reveal and they did let the water spray. It was really cool and soaked us all. Also behind Edison Plaza was the Edison museum.
Did you see the giant Gator County Gator right outside of I-10? The Baytown Buccees is my favorite. Their pulled pork sandwich, apple pie, and fudge is the best, hands down
Also, when you were in Lake Charles, you can see the giant building in the background to the left of the robot around 20:20. Those windows are still being replaced from Hurricane Laura. There's a lot more fixed now than last time I was there.
Amazing video Jacob you are always the best side finder of attraction and so much more . Keep up the good work . They were gonna build a Buckies gas station here in Ft Myers Florida but decided not to go threw with plans . Totally disappointed ☹️ .....
You have traveled so close to where I live so many times! I Heber went shopping in Lake Charles many times and never knew that about the the alligator statuses. And I have wanted to try the mellow Mushroom but haven't yet. I've heard it's really good! I love the Buc-ees BBQ! Safe travels.
Used to be one near my town that had been open since the 50’s until late 2000’s. Many of the dinosaurs were very much so inaccurate and from fiberglass too , though at the times I visited it had become a tivoli and fairytale land😅 Wich actually was a nice break for me from the dinosaurs and sounds , because frankly - 4 year old me was terrified.
HEY, JACOB Well This Dino park is deja vu to so many other parks But I've enjoyed them all Holly 🍞 bread I'vNever seen another billboard like that one any place pretty dang cool... I can't believe You deny that shoe tree A pair of Crocs... yeah Ok Let's keep moving down that Road
There are a few great videos that introduced me to Buc-ees. Still haven't been to one though. Search for Adam the Woo's Buc-ees video when the first one opened in Florida not that long ago. It's a good overview.
If you go to Corpus Christi Texas you must go to the Texas State Aquarium also Fajitaville it's a three-story Mexican restaurant on the beach also they have great art museums
hey jacob have you ever been to vermilloinville in Lafayette LA? its really cool tons of history of south louisiana, also has a really good restauruant to eat at!
Yet another superb quality trip stop off. But again.......I'm going to have to watch earlier because you made me sooo hungry eating the BBQ sandwich and sausage!!! Sob sob
I live in lake charles and work at a dermatology clinic where we have one of those Gators outside So our gator says he's prone to making rash decisions 😄 Thanks for visiting lake charles sir! 😀
No Jacob you do not look like Happy Halfwit 🤣😂🤣, your much more handsome than him, must admit Magnolia was quite cute, maybe when she’s a big magnolia not so much, loved the vlog x

Rip flintstones attraction :(
That muffler man looked like, at least to me, Alfred E Newman. And that damn brisket had me drooling!
Agreed Mike! .....Magazine hero all the way1
This is an awesome road trip Jacob

That Paul Simon joke was something! Lol

Lol Frog shaving. I used to tell my puppy dog when she would whine for treat, "You are fine as Frog's Hair." lol
I loved the town of Rayne! Adorable! I really enjoyed the museums' humorous side. Kids would love it. Loved seeing you holding Magnolia. Neat.
Near the big metal frog, Monsieur Jacques, is the Candyland Cottage. You can load up on ice cream, fudge and a thousand different kinds of candy! Kids love that too!

Jacob's musical knowledge extends back to "Call Me Al." Very impressive. Extra points for thi video.
Those banker frogs made me think of the joke that the punchline is, “It’s a knick-knack Patty Black. Give the frog a loan.” 😁
Good stuff at Dino Park!
Fun & relaxing day !
Baby gators are so cute, I wish they stayed little forever!! 🐊
Love it when you upload :)
Fun park, and fun comments. i was so happy you helped explain some of the dinosaur jokes ;) It is a good idea to have these dinosaur jokes along with the historic information in that they'll help the smaller children feel more happy along all these great and vicious carnivores.
I loved the jokes...but I'm corny like that. They were even funnier because Jacob explained them.
That was a fun day and I always love a good dinosaur park!
I love your vids. Keep it up!
“That’s a knick knack Patty Black, give the frog a loan”
Oh my gosh. That brought back some funny memories of that joke. 🤣
Loved seeing the prehistoric park, so cool!
Where is the Prehistoric Park located?
Good stuff...Thanks for sharing!!!!
Love all the quirky places you find to eat!

Carpetbagger,. Good to see You so happy again doing what You were born to do.
I am from Lake Charles. Follow your adventures. The Gator in the red outfit was modeled after a local mayor and senator [Mrs. Willie Mount] The Bucees brisket is good but, try the pulled pork sammy!!!
Jacob, you always put a smile on my face. Say bonjour to Madame Crappeaux for me. 😂

Brad, you're a treasure on your own!

Thanks you had a blast see you soon
Jacob you need to donate to a shoe tree .Don’t forget your shoes .Great video thanks for sharing Jacob.
Your next stop should go to the Rio Grande Valley a town called La Feria Texas it's a great place to hang out
There is a joke that the punch line is, "Its a knicknack Patty Black. Give the frog a loan."
Really enjoy the zoo and other parks you find!!
Watching you from Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦
Leo automotive guy appears to look a lot like Alfred E Neuman...lmao

Corpus Christi -- as a child I was there with my mother for all of two weeks. Don't remember much!
Another great one on the bag! Thanks as always! Praying for continued safe travels!
You could see the moon in the star.
That was cool! 😎🌜
I noticed that too. Super cool.
Amazing video Jacob you are always the best side finder of attraction and so much more . Keep up the good work . They were gonna build a Buckies gas station here in Ft Myers Florida but decided not to go threw with plans . Totally disappointed ☹️ .....
That muffler man's face reminds me of The MAD Magazine guy. LOL 🤣😂🤣
That Paul Simon reference lol that was great. I'm sure you're millennials don't get it 😂
Thanks Jacob!
I love gators 🐊 💚
Also while you're in Houston they put a river around the Woodlands Mall and you can take a boat ride
That sounds so neat.
Wow I love all of the cool alligators 😁
Good video CB. You need to wash your car. The side window is dirty. Lol.
This video is awesome I really enjoyed it sometimes you do goofy things though and makes me laugh I like that laughter is fun
You have traveled so close to where I live so many times! I Heber went shopping in Lake Charles many times and never knew that about the the alligator statuses. And I have wanted to try the mellow Mushroom but haven't yet. I've heard it's really good!
I love the Buc-ees BBQ!
Safe travels.

I love going to Rudy's too. My shot glasses are from Buc-ees.
Enjoying the videos stay safe out there carpetbagger aka jacob
I live minutes away. I could have showed you many amazing places.
Actually been trying to contact you for the last year. Lol. Stay safe my friend!
HEY, JACOB Well This Dino park is deja vu to so many other parks
But I've enjoyed them all Holly 🍞 bread I'vNever seen another billboard like that one any place pretty dang cool... I can't believe
You deny that shoe tree
A pair of Crocs... yeah Ok Let's keep moving down that Road
Come to Corpus Christi!!!
My absolute favorite Buccee's is the one in Katy!
I hope you get to visit the prehistoric park on the Oregon coast some day.
Never heard of Buc-Ees but the sausage on a stick looked delicious. Loved this video. See you at the next stop.
There are a few great videos that introduced me to Buc-ees. Still haven't been to one though. Search for Adam the Woo's Buc-ees video when the first one opened in Florida not that long ago. It's a good overview.
I thought Calaveras California was the frog capital of the US. Learning something new every day.... Thank you, Jacob! ☺️
If you go to Corpus Christi Texas you must go to the Texas State Aquarium also Fajitaville it's a three-story Mexican restaurant on the beach also they have great art museums
hey jacob have you ever been to vermilloinville in Lafayette LA? its really cool tons of history of south louisiana, also has a really good restauruant to eat at!
Yet another superb quality trip stop off.
But again.......I'm going to have to watch earlier because you made me sooo hungry eating the BBQ sandwich and sausage!!! Sob sob
FYI, they're building a Buckees in Sevierville, TN
i like your tours.
Best 10 days ever
We need a Buc-Ee’s road trip. Visit all of them
Hi Jacob! U make me so hungry bbq love also leo looks like Ron Howard lol. Love 😁🤟

So our gator says he's prone to making rash decisions 😄
Thanks for visiting lake charles sir! 😀
This was a awesome video posted on my birthday yesterday
Happy belated birthday! Hope you had a nice day.
Thank you
25:09 The Leo's Muffler man looks a little like Alfred E. Neuman of Mad Magazine!
I wish you would have spent more time in Louisiana but the videos really good so I'll still like it
In the opening scene it looks like that's a gas can in the back seat, a SAFTEY can.
No Jacob you do not look like Happy Halfwit 🤣😂🤣, your much more handsome than him, must admit Magnolia was quite cute, maybe when she’s a big magnolia not so much, loved the vlog x
Go to Lubbock TX. That's where my dad lived.
Don't forget about the toll roads around Houston.
I vote for the Alamo!
Never explain a bad joke.
Always explain a bad joke. It's the only way to redeem it. 🤪
Corpus Christi also has The Sunrise Mall where a scene from The Legend of Billie Jean was filmed. Unfortunately the mall is now close.
We call the tortilla wrapped sausage Donky Dongs. Well we do in my small town in North Texas.
wow so cool keep save going o ge cold bad weather snow keep warm out there
I wanna go to south padre Island and thr neighboring areas some day along the gulf coast .
Dallas tx for sure
The next Buc ees is to be in Springfield MO
is it just me, or does the underside of a living gator feel like an old person who tanned too much ?
@@mgratk Or undersides of alligators, for that matter. 😮
You should go to The Anniston museum and Bermen museum if you’re ever in Alabama !
Muffler Man looks like Alfred the Mad TV mascot kid.
That was my thought too.
Houses can’t jump? Nah…the House Of Pain can Jump Around! :-)
Pack it up, pack it in...
I would love to take my son there he loves Dinosaurs 🦕.
You should visit Glen Rose, TX.
I believe that was a volcano and not a meteor.
other than coke, Crush orange is my favorite
