We held a poll on our Provost Park Pass community page asking what park should Chris visit. It wasn't even close. Knott's Berry Farm was the clear winner.
Since Knott's Berry Farm won Chris went to Knott's to reveal the unique history of Knott's Berry Farm, America's First Theme Park.
Thank you to our Patreons for supporting us! We love you!

![[Secrets Revealed] Haunted Mansion Disneyland](/img/1.gif)
Walter Knott and Walter Disney were great friends my grandma was Mr Knott's favorite waitress. On occasion shed serve Mr Disney when Mr. Knott invited him to dinner. She's still alive and I talk to her about it to this day. She loved it.
That's cool!
Knotts deserves its props for holding their own against Disneyland
Right?!?
Holding their own? A fun park but 12 visited park is hardly holding their own
Yup
half the cost, better rides, better food
My dad was a ride mechanic at Knott’s berry farm for 20+ years. He helped build and maintain a lot of iconic rides. My grandma worked at Virginia’s gift shop for decades. You did a great job on this video. It makes me Berry happy to see Knott’s get some love!
Interesting fact: Knottt's Berry Farm was one of the first venues played by Comedy Music legend *"Weird Al" Yankovic!*
I went to one of them.
Steve Martin also used to perform at the Bird Cage Theater
That’s sick
@@Paola-jf2qf What was the performance like? Did you think that he would still be around decades later?
They don't call him weird for nothing LoL
I'm a HUGE Disneyland fan, I made a lot of childhood memories there. However, Knott's holds a very special place in my heart that Disney is never going to overshadow.
I can’t wait to visit this place it’s been years!!!
You need to go back and do Knott’s Scary Farm!
Knotts has some of the best food in any theme park.
Seriously tho. So good.
Chris, many thanks for all the time you spent researching the history of Knott's Berry Farm. The last time I was there was almost 40 years ago. Now that I'm retired, I'm going to add Knott's to my bucket list. Eat, drink and be berry!
I was there last 30 years ago
Knott’s is so rich in secrets, it almost rivals Disney. Gotta do more on them.
Our high school band played there in 1977. We had soooo much fun and everyone so kind. We got to spend the ENTIRE day there! We also marched down Main Street in Disneyland. That's when they used to have their afternoon Main Street parades. It was quite an adventure for a 102 high school band members from the small town of Schuyler, Nebraska!
KNOTT'S Berry Farm is my favorite theme park it's 5 miles from Disneyland
Hey lauri hope that you’re doing well.
Indeed.
I miss being a ride operator at the park😕
Go back part time! 👍🏾😎
Interesting bit of trivia: The Corkscrew from Knott's is still in use today. After leaving the farm, it was moved to Idaho's Silverwood Theme Park.
I love how this went from a “secrets revealed” to a “day at Knott’s with some historical info.” lol not complaining, though.
Also, I learned Stalactite has a “C” in it for Ceiling. And Stalagmite has a “G” for Ground. :)
Haha I noticed that too! We kept getting distracted from the facts, we were having too much fun!! 😂
@@co-hostamanda3240 that’s my favorite thing about your family’s videos. You always seem to be having a blast! I wish I could do what you all do. Sincerely.
Stalagmites might reach the ceiling and stalactites are tight to the ceiling
Good memories. In 1956 when I was 10, we took a trip to the coast from NJ and visited the new Disneyland and Knott's Berry Farms Ghost Town. What a change. Rode on the train, on top of the stagecoach, panned for gold and rode a "merry go round" with swings and turned by a live mule. I still have some B&W pictures.
Damn old timer
Prior to 1983, Knott's Berry Farm did have a park mascot. It was a prospector named Whittles.
Eat, Drink, and Be Berry!!!
I loved this video so much! I am currently a Knott's employee (I work in wardrobe), and I just love all the history that the park holds. I can't wait to see more Knott's videos from you guys in the future. 😁
Eat, drink, and Be Berry! I've only been to Knott's Berry Farm once and it is so much fun. Rides, food, etc...so epic! Thank you for sharing the history behind this theme park! So amazing to see the whole Provost family there! You guys bring so much peace, love, and joy to my life! I love you all to pieces!
Thanks Johnathan
This was so interesting. Thank you for sharing all of this wonderful information and taking me along on this fun family day!
I went to Knotts a lot as a kid in the 1960's. Also went to Calico a couple times! We got robbed by Outlaws on the stagecoach ride!
They still do the train robbery.
thank you for this - brought back some sweet memories. Whenever we visited my late sister, Knott's and Calico were must do's. We had to have our chicken dinners and load up on Boysenberry jam. The log ride and soap box racers were our favorites. I remember almost passing out in Calico - it was sooooo hot!
Thank you Jonathan!!!
Seeing Mile’s excitement and joy riding his first roller coaster really made my day.
Absolutely love this video! Always great to learn the history and hidden gems of some of these amazing parks!
I think it's been over 35 years since I've been to Knott's. Some of it looked just as I remembered. Thank you for posting this video
Gotta add this to my list! Looks like so much fun guys, great job
I'm a huge lover of Disneyland, but Knott's Berry Farm was my very first theme park as a kid growing up in SoCal! I hope you continue to do more vids of Knott's in the future! Eat Drink and Be Berry!
Oh yes!!!! Please more Knott's Berry farm! Thanks for all your hard work Chris, Amanda, and Miles...you're the berry best!
Thank you Jonathan! And cool video PPP, lots of history there!
This video was BERRY cool. 😂😂
I love learning about other theme parks, good job Amanda and Chris...
Happy to see your whole faces again
My absolutely favorite theme park. My parents first took me there way back in 1965 as a 10 year old. The memories I have of my grandmother and parents waiting in line and then finally tasting that delicious chicken are priceless. I've been to Knott's several times and now my wife and I have season passes. Even with passes we still spend around $200 each visit buying souvenirs, eating, and just a lot of little nicknacks. Well worth it. When I look back on the times that I went there with my grandmother and parents I get nostalgic and a little teary-eyed. When your little one grows up and takes his children there these memories will be precious to him. Thank you so much for this video. Eat drink, and be berry!
Thanks, you made me realize how much I miss going. Last decade or more, the only time I have been to the "Farm" has been for Knotts "Scary" Farm for Halloween. Chris, you did it. I never thought you could tell me something I didn't know. I never knew the origin of "Virgina's gift shop. Considering how much of my money they have, it's good to know. I remember as a kid, with the family standing in line for Mrs. Knotts chicken dinner. FYI... the Chicken dinner restaurant has a great breakfast faire. By all means, tell us more. And don't forget about Independence Hall across the street. You kids are the best.
WOW! I’ve visited Disney every year and hv bypassed Knott’s since the 1980’s. I had no idea this park is filled with more treasures. I’ll def return next visit! Awesome tour!
Love the Secrets revealed videos. You have a really great following. I have not been to Knotts for many years. We used to go there all the time when I was a kid. That was a long time ago, I am 70 now. We always got a free cookie at the bakery!
It’s so good to see this channel back 🥺😩
I fell in love with Knott’s Berry Farm when I first moved to Los Angeles in the 1980s. It’s BERRY charming. And I loved that it was an old roadside attraction that became a theme park over time. And they pretty much invented (perfected) the Halloween Haunt experience at theme parks. We made a point to visit every Halloween for years and years. I loved the various magic shows that would happen at the Halloween Haunts.
Thank you for all the fun information on Knott's! Loved it❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes 🙌 my wish finally came true knots secrets revealed.
That water ride looks Berry MOIST. 🌊😁
Ha. Good one
Wow! I LOVE all the really cool history that is a part of this theme park! Thanks for teaching us all about it! I think I’ve only been to Knott’s 1-2 times in my whole life. Thanks PPP!
The more the Berry!!
Great informative and fun video! Love it!
Enjoyed all the history about Knott’s Berry Farm. Would love to see more visits. I would love to visit someday
BERRY good video! Ever since Disneyland got rid of its AP program, my family and I have kind of switched our "home park" to Knott's. I LOVE going there and getting to be a big kid in a playground!
Also, Mark, I LOVE the yellow shoes.
I'm so glad your family had such a berry happy day!
Having more Knott's videos would be BERRY exciting 😉
Just subscribed. Thank you for a GREAT video. So much information. Wonderful job. 👍👍👍
Welcome! And thank you so much. Means a lot to us
Berry very berry. Yes, Much more of Knott's. I went there when all they had was Ghost town and it was free.
My family and I think it was cool you were excited when we ran into you at the park. Enjoyed the video.
I bet Miles was excited to not have to wear a mask here!!
A REAL amusement park visit - no masks, no distancing, just fun!!
Such a great place. Not a lot has change since I visited the first time over 50 years ago (man, I sound old!). FAMILY oriented activities. Not just huge multi million dollar attractions. Enough new coasters and things to keep everyone happy. But like the Huff and Puff - you don't see that type of thing at Disney. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thank you, Jonathan!!!
That was Berry fun and Berry interesting. I didn't know a lot of that!!!
Eat, drink and be Berry!! More Knott’s please! Loved this video! I grew up in SoCal and have been many times. Love this park!
Thanks for the awesome history video on Knott's Berry Farm! As a local I can't believe I haven't visited Knott's in years but after watching this I'm too excited to check out Ghost Rider and Montezuma's Revenge. You guys really brought light to the culture of the park as well and how it represents the rich history of California.
Provost Park Pass wants us to watch nothing but the berry best!!! Thank you for sharing!
Love Snoopy!! Thanks for sharing!!
This was a berry good video! Thank you!
I am BERRY happy that Provost Park Pass was at Knott's. The Corkscrew was my first Rollercoaster I ever rode in 1981 when I was 5 years old. I literally grew up at Knott's, & I preferred Knott's over Disneyland.
Hello from Phoenix Arizona!🔥
A "must" for me during may vacay in Southern California! Being from Houston, my dad would let us spend the summer there in the '70's All summer long I saw the adverts on TV for Knott's. My cousin woke us up (me & big sister) She asked If I wanted to go to Knott's? You never saw a 7 year old kid get out of bed so fast. "Yeah! I wanna go Knott's!!!! Calico Mine Train and the railroad were fav. memories. I'd also gotten glasses, so when came out of the Calico my lenses were fogged up. LOL! You MUST have some fried chicken & Boysenberry (anything!)
Great video, brings back lots of memories. Lived near there when I was young. First time remember going was in 1964 and last ten years later.
Montezuma's revenge was the first roller coaster I rode. I also loved a ride they had in the 90's called XK-1 It was basically a very high Dumbo ride, but you had a second joystick to rotate your vehicle 360 degrees and can just stay upside down if you wanted. Dangerous, but a good time.
Eat, drink, and be Berry!
I'm berry berry excited to see Knott's content. Just don't tell Disneyland I said that. Lol
For the past 5 years I have been a annual season pass holder, its one of the best values around. I am glad Disney did not buy Knott's Berry Farm as I can just image how much ticket prices might be like.
But the park experience would be way better. Low ticket prices and I see the trailer trash who visits Knott's compared to Disney.
Berry happy to see your latest video!
Thanks for all the interesting information :)
More eat, drink and be BERRY, please! Loved the video! Thank you!
I grew up going to Knott's Berry Farm (as well as Disneyland) and you just taught me more about Knott's than I ever knew.
Me too
Knots Berry farm is so underrated! Also here’s an idea for a vid: Soarin Secrets Revealed
By far my favorite park for many reasons, mostly being a few minutes away from home as a kid. We spent many a summer day in this 70’s running loose with 20 bucks in our pockets and a full ticket book. Yes, ticket books. I think they were 25bucks for 20 tickets or something like that. I’ve had many a family member employed there over the years who have told me this was the best place they ever worked. My cousins were train and stage coach robbers mostly….Your son is absolutely adorable. Three times again for the sidewinder, right on. This one scared the bajeezers out of my kids at this age….Great video as usual.
Yay Knotts this place looks awesome I wanna go here one day great video!
Knott's is the berry best! We will be back again this weekend!
We are going here berry soon! Thanks for the tips!
I am Berry excited about Knott's videos!!
I agree that Ghost Rider is the best ride at Knott’s Berry Farm it’s amazing the back row is the best seat!!! Huge fan of Disneyland and Knott’s so I was so happy to see u made a history and secrets of this underrated CA theme park
Yes, more Knott's please! I rode The Corkscrew!
Berry excited for more Knott’s Videos!!!
berry good video! lots of great childhood memories of coming here, and definitely of eating at the restaurant!
Looks like a great time, so many great rides for the whole family 😊
Learned a lot. Thanks.
The videos on your channel are berry good!!!
That was a berry good video, we need more.
What do you get when 2 straw-BERRY'S meet? A strawberry shake. (Cuz they shake hands.)
I'll be getting a season pass to Knott's soon so I'm glad this video came out when it did!
Loved it! Eat, drink and be BERRY!
I'm old enough to remember the haunted shake walk through and I don't know if you mentioned but one of the reasons they started to charge at Knott's Is because the "hippies" over took the area. The covered wagon area. And seeing joe in jail and of course the can can girl trying to escape 2nd floor 😊
A berry good visit for you and your family.
For California residents, elementary school kids as part of their California History have to make a diorama of a California mission. On the west side of Reflection Lake. there are several dioramas of the local missions. San Gabriel, San Bernadino and Cuidad de Los Angeles (LA today) and many more.
American and California history was the theme that makes Knott's a theme park. From the missions to Independence Hall across Beach Blvd to Ghost Town.
I'm glad the Huff N Puffers are still around. That is one of the original rides in Camp Snoopy. My youngest brother threw a fit when he couldn't ride back in '85. He was in that in between age where he was too big and uninterest in the kiddie rides, but too small for rollercoasters.
One extra tip, outside the park, the McDonalds on the corner of La Palma and Beach has a huge train diorama.
man.. I haven't been to Knott's in over 30 years... dang... I need to get back out there and visit there again.. has been far too long.. so this is a lovely reminder of what is there and how things have changed.. I know Snoopy was already there last time I went
Berry good vid! Used to live about 15 minutes away from Knott's. Don't know if it's still there but there used to be a player piano in a little courtyard. My parents and I were there one night and a tree branch broke off and hit the roof right above us, caused the piano to stop playing lol Still have gold from gold panning there too, good memories.
Provost Park Pass Is Berry good, Thank you for posting this Berry good video on Knott’s Berry Farm.
You missed Independence Hall. An exact replica of the original and it FREE to go see. Mr. Knott was a massive patriot and wanted everyone to be able to see it and when it was sold to the new owners one condition was that it remains open and free to the public.
I remember independence hall and the pack burro ride over there.
It'd be berry cool if you did another Knott's video, Chris. This was fun. I joined the military in 1985 from Buena Park, so this was my stomping grounds for several years. I was among the first riders (first day) to ride Montezuma's Revenge. We collected cans for a long time and had them recycled in order to pay for our tickets to ride this amazing new attraction. I hope my home town treated your family well. You may recall that I now live in UCLA (Upper Corner of Lower Alabama). Love the Provosts!
Eat drink and be Berry!!! Now I’m looking at Knott’s in a very different way!! More please 😃
Enjoyed this video berry much! ❤️
Knotts is awesome! Thanks for the video. I learned some new things about Knotts that I didn’t know. Eat, drink and be berry!
Miles handles that roller coaster like a pro. LOL
Thanks for the 'Berry' interesting Knott's history.
The timber mountain log ride definitely reminds me of splash mountain but mixed with Dollywood attraction called blazing fury all at the same time I haven’t been on that ride but one day I would definitely would like to go on that ride with my family and personally it’s definitely gonna be one of the coolest rides that I’’m ever gonna enjoy.
Eat, drink and be berry. I grew up in SoCal and would love the field trips to Knotts. You should do one of the field trips. They are awesome.
Loved this vlog
My favorite California park. Yay so excited. Thank you Jonathon...
