This is a very late comment, but I was there, walking down the street through the crowd, I stop to look around and boom, I spotted you. I wish I’d said hi, I was too nervous. I just stood there awestruck saying “That’s him! It’s the carpetbagger!” I’ve been watching you since 2015, it was awesome.
Thank you so much for letting me be in your video, that was absolutely one of the biggest highlights of my trip to the festival this year! ^u^ I hope you had a great time there!
I can't believe how the Mothman festival has grown . It seems to be a real going concern . Looked awesome and the hay ride seemed like a lot of fun . Thanks for taking us along . Keep Safe ❤Keep Well❤
I've been trying to plan a good Halloween themed vacation this year. Did Salem and Savannah the last few years, so this one seems cool so close to October. I didn't realize the festival revolved around cryptids. That really makes me want to go
Thank you so much for another great video. And 🎉Fu too ..3:11 to the one that gave us the finger while u first started crossing the bridge. I love how you always provide good 411 about your adventures ❤❤Lol. I watched Shawshank redemption yesterday after seeing your awesome video!!!😂
I believe that the Trading Post and Bunker 304 are both owned by the same folks who own the Mothman Museum. We visited in April and loved those stores!! Cryptid lovers dream stores - so much great stuff!!
Jacob, glad to see you back in my home state of WV. Glad you didn't have a heart attack after getting shocked in the electric chair. You look like you had a great time in Point Pleasant, Your videos are awesome!
Thank you Jacob for the wonderful video as always,it was great to see you again and also thanks for filming our Mothman tie dyesy husband's original design
At 43:27 you hear a whisper in the background saying “Jacob”, that was me trying to get your attention without interrupting so I could introduce you to my girlfriend who is a huge fan of the channel, along with myself, haha!
16:14 YO JOE! 34:45 I was not expecting a fursuit! Seeing that, in the thumbnail, I had to check it out! Sooooo cute, moth fursuits are always really cute
My sister and stepdad went there yesterday, watching this since i couldnt go because of work and just to see if they are in the background somewhere lol
What a great time. Hope you made it ok through everything. Some cool merch. 😊 Thanks for taking us along. Some of us would never be able to get out to see things like this. We appreciate you, Carpetbagger. 🎉
I was there and missed you!!! I even talked to Mark Muncy about hoping to meet you. I ❤your videos and the family is back on the way home through Asheville to South Carolina. Maybe one day...
SUMMER OF CRYPTIDS!!! How's that for Summer 2024? I love when you go to cryptid festivals! The taste of small town America is never stronger than when you're in such events. :)
Need to attend this someday. I've been playing Fallout 76 and they have a ton of mothman love in the game. Even his statue in-game, since its based in west virginia.
This is a huge bucket list for me! I love cryptids and the mothman is my favorite cryptid story. I often tell people of my encounter with slender man in Putnam county NY many years ago which sparked my interest into cryptids and the paranormal. Thanks for taking us along.
It's really crazy to see how much this festival has grown. Growing up in ohio right across that bridge I've heard about mothman for as far back as I can remember.
I have been flying the Mothman over the hayride for 19 years. It is great to finally see it from the perspective of the hayride! Thanks for posting this video!
Jacob, you're going to get a little bit of culture here but the suit you took a picture with is part of the furry community. They are really well known for that beautiful moth suit. I actually had an run in with them a while back at a convention in Pittsburgh It's good to know that you actually ran into somebody I know lol😊
Thanks for visiting the Mothman Festival Jacob! Hope you had an awesome time. Gotta try some Pepperoni rolls when you have a chance and you should also stop and have a meal at a Tudor’s Biscuit World sometime. Good stuff! Great video 👍
Thanks for coming to visit us. It would be nice to see it moved out to our fairgrounds there is way more room. But we just enjoy everyone in town so much
Love this video carpetbagger and you work very hard on your videos keep it up Jacob and I love it when you say hay you carpetbagger here and this one is in the bag.
I'm from Brazil and I live in Idaho. I've been to some of the places Jacob went and I must say I love this part of American culture! Side road attractions are the best here!!! Definitely adding Mothman Festival to the list of things I want to do!!!
I saw that fursuiter in your thumbnail and at 34:53 in Chicago last week their full suit is adorable and fluffy got a photo with them and told them i recognized them from the thumbnail of your video they laughed we went to a rave that was going on
My dad told me Calvin Parker the "Pascagoula Alien witness" past away recently. I met him at an event once here in Pascagoula. I hope his story lives on along with the other cryptic sightings.
Wow that looks like fun, esp the hay ride. I am impressed with that town to really market this cryptic up and it brings a lot of people and money into their town.
HEY,.... JACOB...WOW That's so crazy How many people Are at the MOTHMAN Festival that you Had to walk Across the Bridge But looks like It Was worth the Walk lot's of Fun And bunch of Awesome mothpeople Around to see Well ok take care stay safe and will see you on the next video
I think its safe to say 75% of the visitors to this event know who Jacob is.....some day there will be a Carpetbagger Festival somewhere.
We met him at the Electric Chair. There were def alot of people who knew who he was.
I'll gladly fly out to attend that!
@@alexgeorge501I second that!
I would go to that festival
You are so right someday there should be a meet-up a carpetbagger Festival something Go Jacob go 0:31

I desperately need to attend this one of these years
I’ll join you. Looks like a great time every year.
Wow, nice person at 3:09 flipping Jacob the bird. Some people are so friendly

@@Lordskelecat Thank you so much! He was a lotta work to build, but well worth it

Interesting what some people choose to contribute to the world

They really go out for Moth Man. Lots of fun.
Love your excitement. Also love how humble you are when you are recognized. Keep doing what you do.
This was lovely! I hope I may go one day. I was particularly tickled by the duo of Nameless Ghouls taking a picture with Mothman.
Awesome video!! It was so cool getting to meet you yesterday! Thank you for taking the time to stop and get a pic with me and my kiddos. ❤
Wow the event is getting huge .
The peoples reaction in the background while you were screaming and scabbing in the electric chair was absolutely hilarious. 🤣
16:14 YO JOE!
34:45 I was not expecting a fursuit! Seeing that, in the thumbnail, I had to check it out! Sooooo cute, moth fursuits are always really cute

Shoutout to the gem of the lady giving you the bird in the raggedy pickup truck lol. Seems like a treat of a person
34:50
Mothman furry was really cute,😊
What a great lady on the hayride, she was good!
That’s me! Thank you so much!!
The pure excitement on the first ladies face when she saw Jacob was so heartfelt. Her costume was also amazing!
What a great time I went a few years ago loved it!
I wasn’t able to make it to the fest this year so THANK YOU for this video. It really brightened my heart to watch you attend
Thanks for taking us along! 🩷
I would love to attend this one day as a guardian of Mothman! Also that Mothman fursuit was soooo cute
So nice to see Papa let the Ghouls go on a little vacation to see Mothman
Mothman has also been spotted in California...the I5 at Wonderland Blvd in Mountain Gate, Redding CA. BELIEVE IT!
I went to Point Pleasant over the Summer to see the Mothman Statue and Museum. It was super cool but I hope one day to go to the Mothman festival!
I love all the clapping that happened when you touched the hiney lol Definitely love all the art there. ❤
15:02 When you touched the “shiny hiney” of the silver Mothman statue, the surprise 👏 applause was awesome!
It was really fun event
Great to meet you Saturday.
Thanks again for featuring the Monsterologist artist tent on your channel! Great video of the Mothman Festival 2023!
My sister and stepdad went there yesterday, watching this since i couldnt go because of work and just to see if they are in the background somewhere lol
Thank you for your donations for a worthy cause, and for taking more shots at the Snow Trooper and not me 😂😂

It was So nice meeting you today . Love you videos
Seen the live first. This maybe my favorite. 💚😂❤❤
Cedar crypt in the thumbnail! Love them!
💜
Need to attend this someday. I've been playing Fallout 76 and they have a ton of mothman love in the game. Even his statue in-game, since its based in west virginia.
My son and I did a 2 day trip in WV going to as many of the IRL locations from Fallout 76. It was a great time
Thanks, Jacob!
That was fun!🎉
Fun festival!
Loved this video. Thank you.
You definitely got your steps in. 👍 Seemed much more fun than sitting in a booth. Good call.
This is a huge bucket list for me! I love cryptids and the mothman is my favorite cryptid story. I often tell people of my encounter with slender man in Putnam county NY many years ago which sparked my interest into cryptids and the paranormal. Thanks for taking us along.
Didn't get to say hi but it was cool to see you walk by at 40 minutes (I was the goofball in pink)
This actually looked like a fun festival to attend. I enjoyed this one a whole lot. 😊
Your face when she turned on the electric chair thought you’d have a accident so funny
I almost did, did not realize it would actually electrocute me
It's really crazy to see how much this festival has grown. Growing up in ohio right across that bridge I've heard about mothman for as far back as I can remember.
Boooooo to the blue truck in the beginning while you’re walking the bridge! Yay moth man festival!!!!! Amazing as always 😊 love this
I have been flying the Mothman over the hayride for 19 years. It is great to finally see it from the perspective of the hayride! Thanks for posting this video!
Great to see him fly! Thank you for your work!

@@CedarCryptid omg ! It you !
@@CedarCryptidand your welcome ^^

We went on a quiet weekday and the city was awesome. Just go see it whenever you can. Marietta, Ohio is close by and very cute to visit.
The 3 fursuiters were so cool an the mothman suit was adorable. This entire event looks amazing! I also wanna try that pepperoni roll thing.
spotted myself at 27:57 lol
Thanks for visiting the Mothman Festival Jacob! Hope you had an awesome time. Gotta try some Pepperoni rolls when you have a chance and you should also stop and have a meal at a Tudor’s Biscuit World sometime. Good stuff! Great video 👍
Thank you Mr Carpetbagger 😊
Loved the electric chair 😮 and the idea of a Carpetbagger roadside attraction is perfect. I can imagine how cool that would be!
Thanks for coming to visit us. It would be nice to see it moved out to our fairgrounds there is way more room. But we just enjoy everyone in town so much
I kind of like being able to experience the town during the festival
Yes town the statue and museum
Love this video carpetbagger and you work very hard on your videos keep it up Jacob and I love it when you say hay you carpetbagger here and this one is in the bag.
Imagine all these good vibes and creativity focused on a REAL issue! Just think the solutions that might be identified. Thanks for sharing.
It was so cool to meet you - made it our best Mothman Festival yet! We love your videos and enjoy all the fun places you find
We we're there!!!❤ The Bigfoot Festival in Hocking Hills Ohio is Awesome too!!!
you could say the Mothman statue is the pleasantest point in the town
I'm from Brazil and I live in Idaho. I've been to some of the places Jacob went and I must say I love this part of American culture! Side road attractions are the best here!!! Definitely adding Mothman Festival to the list of things I want to do!!!
When you said you were coming all these people are waiting to see you, that is why it is so backed up 😉
I look forward to your video at Mothman Festival, the Chili Cook-Off, and Transworld every year!
I love me some good-fashioned fun with Cryptids and local Monsters, especally with one month away from the month of Halloween!
Fun Video. Yes Last year it was super busy. looked a little more light this year, but still busy
I saw that fursuiter in your thumbnail and at 34:53 in Chicago last week their full suit is adorable and fluffy got a photo with them and told them i recognized them from the thumbnail of your video they laughed we went to a rave that was going on
Awesome mothman festival 😂😊
Nerds are the BEST
My dad told me Calvin Parker the "Pascagoula Alien witness" past away recently. I met him at an event once here in Pascagoula. I hope his story lives on along with the other cryptic sightings.
Wow that looks like fun, esp the hay ride. I am impressed with that town to really market this cryptic up and it brings a lot of people and money into their town.
Jacob getting shocked in the electric chair had me laughing so hard.
HEY,.... JACOB...WOW That's so crazy How many people
