The Country Bear Show/Jubilee - Knoebles Amusement Park | Animatronic History

Hi everyone! This video is very different from the others on my channel. Today's video discusses the history of the Country Bear/Jubilee show at Knoebles Amusement Park in Elysburg, PA. The show ran from 1980-1995. I will be posting more animatronic history in the future, so if this content interests you, please be sure to stick around!

7/22 Update: One of my mutuals on Instagram, Alex, brought to my attention that he spoke with Knoebels staff and they confirmed that majority of the animatronics in storage were destroyed due to flooding. So as of now the only remaining animatronic bots are Pete, Repete, & Billy Boy :(

I know this comment is 1 year but I still wanna ask,
when the Animatronics where damaged in the flood, where they thrown out or they left to rot in storage

[@karissaexplainsitallxo]

@@TFFan-hu5qi I think they were thrown out. Not 100% sure though.

Great video! Unfortunately the condition of a lot of the characters has fallen out of hand, so even if Knoebles wanted to bring back the show, they would need to replace a LOT of the character's faces and other parts as well. But it would be awesome if they managed to bring it back somehow

ooooh, I love Knoebels! Thanks for this!
An animatronic history series seems like a neat idea. Also, I'd like to see more videos about Knoebels too. How about doing an arcade review on their arcades?

[@karissaexplainsitallxo]

thank you! i will definitely be making more animatronic videos! and that would be a great idea! thank you again 😌

[@easynhonest]

Great history on that rare attraction at Knoebels. It would be awesome if you created a playlist for the history of every one of Knoebel's rides and attractions 😎

[@karissaexplainsitallxo]

That’s a great idea! Thank you ☺️

[@Elavator66]

i wonder if they still got repete's chainsaw in storage from hoedown hootenanny, and possibly the showtapes if they weren't destroyed.

[@karissaexplainsitallxo]

i wonder too!

So cool I never knew this...my gf worked there

[@sethhorst6158]

Hard to believe there used to be a Hard Luck Bears local to where I am. Sad most of the bots were destroyed, heck for whatever reason Pete & Repete has not been on display as of recently.

[@karissaexplainsitallxo]

i know! & they are supposedly being restored but that was 2 years ago when i got that information so im not sure what’s up!

[@MeccaFatz_and_Friends]

Interesting

[@michaelbonner4126]

They thought that the people who came there wouldn’t think of the other thing.. XD

[@pamelabrewer3044]

[@karissaexplainsitallxo]

i know :(

the two in the museum scared the absolute piss out of me as a kid, they just lurked there with their dead eyes. but there was something alive about them.
