    Don Knotts was a comedy genius! Most people know and love him as Barney Fife from The Andy Griffith Show, but I will always remember him best as Mr. Furley from Three's Company! (Bursts into apartment with a blowtorch to cut Jack & Chrissy's handcuffs) "Ok, I'm here to cut the... (sees cop standing there) ROAST BEEF!" haha!

    • @GregsGameRoom
      @GregsGameRoom 7 лет назад +5

      Mine too! "Handcuffed!" When Jack is at the table while Chrissy is underneath and they're trying to eat the cake... OMG, one of the funniest scenes EVER!

    Hi Adam! Thanks for visiting Morgantown. Not only do I live here, but I also work at the Morgantown History Museum that you attempted to visit (sorry we were closed; we even have an exhibit dedicated to Don Knotts that I'm sure you would've liked). We don't allow photography because people have come in before, taken high-quality photos of some of our own pictures & artifacts, then tried to sell those photos as their own. However, I probably would've let you film inside since I know who you are on here. Also, yes parking here sucks, and the hills are ridiculously steep...sorry about that! Anyways, that's all I wanted to say. Best wishes and come back soon!

    • @TheMadNomadder
      @TheMadNomadder 6 лет назад

      I also follow/watch Adam! I am from Clarksburg, West Virginia. I also do travel videos across the US. I always try to make WV a destination for tourism. Right now, the hot topic is Fallout 76. I am trying to showcase WV real life locations to the game. Morgantown is on my agenda, tomorrow. (asked to do Popcon in Mylan for some publicity figure do some extra video of what I know of the area from growing up as well).
      Later on I would love to reach out for additional information/guidance to do a video for Don Knotts sometime. We recently went down to Mt. Airy. It was a great experience, I would love to help make WV, especially Morgantown, the ultimate stop for Don Knotts.

    A friend of mine in Atlanta (Peachtree City) has repainted several of the old the murals for Coke. Corporate has an archive of every single mural they've ever painted, it's geographic location and the archive of the original artwork, accessible for her to copy. She gets somewhere in the $2-5k range to go on-location for a pressure wash, prime and repaint, usually by local request. They generally last 10-15 years or so.

    Don Knotts ....undoubtedly one of he finest comedians of his time. One of his finest performances was his cameo in 'It's a mad, mad,(etc) World" where he & Phil Silvers just played off each other to perfection. As you said Adam "Thanks for all those laughs, Don"

    Awesome video as usual!!! I always like Don Knotts too. And btw in case you didn't know, anytime you drive down a steep or any long incline you have to always put your transmission in 1st gear before you go down the hill, so you don't speed up and lose control. That's what 1st gear is for. Also while in 1st keep on the brakes when you start to speed up.

He was a frail looking man, but evidently pretty tough to do all that climbing! I wonder if the Warner ever played The Ghost and Mr. Chicken? That was my favorite Don Knotts movie of all time! Have fun Adam, and keep on keeping on!

I went to school with his great nephew. he was very quite but when he said something it was funny. the warner theater was one of my favorite places when I was a kid it has been for sale for years. not only did don knots stay at the hotel Morgan so did Johnnie Mathis quite a few times. parking definitely is tough down town with an RV. Hope I catch you the next time you are here.

We went through it at night and I thought it was just about the craziest place to get around in that I had ever been in. Then when I found out it was his hometown, I thought, how appropriate. LoL. I loved Don Knotts he was truly one of the greatest entertainers ever!

    Don's mother's boarding house was on Beechurst Av. downtown that runs along the river. It was raised to build office space for WVU, His mother moved from there to 732 Louisa Av, In Morgantown and lived there until her death. Don's Mother and Father both and two of his brothers are buried at Beverly Hills Cemetary just out side of Morgantown on Rt 19,
