Grew up around the Amish in eastern PA. They replaced my grandparents very very steep roof with a foreman that was 15 and workers even younger. I was in my 30’s and never felt more shame. I was playing with Legos at their ages! Great clear-minded people.
@@billyyank5807 teaching self sufficiency and being a part of a community is not the same as child labor. Child labor is like the artisanal mining in the Congo and other places to get rare earth minerals to make your computer chips, smart l phones, car batteries, solar panels, etc 😂
My dad was a stockbroker in the Ft. Wayne area and about half his clients were Amish. I've driven for them many times. Seen a good handful of Amish weddings. They're good people. They do smell weird, and they do...act a bit weird. But they're honest, trustworthy folks. And Pat's description of them is actually pretty much correct. They call us "English," by the way.
There a former Amish on RUclips and he said his family only took baths on Saturday because church is on Sunday, he said when he got out he didn't know how to take a shower or that he should bath regularly at first
@Mike Hurt yeah, that sounds true, although I never asked to confirm that. I think the thing that's "weird" about them is they're a bit like a colony of ants. It's intentional, but there is ZERO individuality. And you can visibly see the groupthink when they build houses. I mean it's very noticeable and pretty jarring. Very very trustworthy people though. I don't think I've ever seen an Amish lie about anything, and I was around them my entire youth.
@@mikehurt3290 there's many different types of Amish....not just Amish and Mennonites. My friends and their kids didn't stink unless they were working. Yeah some bath once a week and some bath twice a day.
A tornado blew through my area a few years ago and destroyed an Amish families barn. By the time the news crew got out to report it the entire framework of the barn was already rebuilt. Within 3 days there was a whole new barn.
I don’t understand people that comment before watching the video. Since doing so clearly doesn’t have to do with the content, I wonder if it’s purely to receive attention or validation from complete strangers? If there is a legitimate reason, I’d greatly appreciate it if someone would let me know.
Greatest people you could ever hope to live in a community with. When a farmer gets sick, they all work together while he can’t work and do everything for him, plus their own daily work without asking for a dime. It’s not even a request, it’s a given. They just do it. And they’re some of the happiest people in the world. They make the best deserts, especially pie in the world. It ain’t even close.
And they abuse animals in the worst way. Amish puppy mills are a huge problem, and it's been well documented. Nevermind how they treat their horses. Oh and they shun their own if they decide to live outside the Amish community. Yeah, not good people...
@@projectgraham414 You’re talking about a very small minority group of Amish. And where in the world are you getting the mistreatment of horses? They spend hours and hours every week making sure those animals are in great shape for their work they do. Those horses are in better physical shape and seen by doctors more than most humans. The last thing they’re going to do is abuse them. They need them. There’s multiple different groups, and what you’re referring to is basically like comparing normal Christians to the ones that use rattlesnakes in their sermons and don’t believe in medicine when they get bit. Educate yourself. You can always find the 1% in any group of people that make them seem horrible. As for the banishment thing, in most Amish communities, there’s a term for it, I forget what it’s called, it’s a Dutch word, it starts with an R I believe and it’s hard to pronounce, but around the age of 16-20 they encourage their children to go out into the world and see it for themselves. Surprisingly, most of them come back. Some don’t, but that’s just based on the individual. But what do I know, I just lived near a bunch most of my life and communicated with many different types of Amish/Mennonites/Etc. But yeah, horrible people. Mission all around the world, provide for people that need help, have tight knit communities and families that stay together. Look after their parents and take over their farms when they grow old until the day they pass away. Never lock their doors, have close to 0% crime. Personally raise their children and make sure they learn morals as opposed to dropping them off at government schools and daycares. What a disgrace.
@@thebadaids and I grew up close to Lancaster, PA, which is Amish central. I ended up with a puppy mill dog, and that poor thing was the most fucked up creature I've tried to live with. The word you're looking for is rumspringa. Yes, many come back, but the ones that don't are shunned and never allowed to come back. They're a cult, pure and simple. They just happen to make really good pies and jams too.
@@projectgraham414 Yes, that’s the word. We both obviously have had experiences with the Amish, I never have even heard anything about them dealing in puppies, so maybe that was an incredibly unfortunate regional thing you saw, but it’s definitely not the norm. I guess we’ll agree to disagree. But even you have to admit that by and large, they have a great reputation worldwide for the things they do. There’s horrible people everywhere. Sorry you had a bad experience. I heard one bad case where an extremely cult like, but incredibly small chapter of the most extreme sect of Amish banished a guy who had been in the community for 40 odd years because he moved a machine off the road that was blocking traffic and about to tip over. They banished him because they don’t believe in using modern technology at that specific group. Horrible stuff does happen, but it’s the exception, not the rule.
Strawberry Point Iowa, I can attest. I got two pies from an Amish family. Went into their home and got an apple and pumpkin pie (it was fall) and I ended up driving their daughter about 1.5 miles up the road to her schoolhouse. She was carrying a giant casserole. Over the years I’ve grown a solid business relationship with many in the plains community. I have one gentleman I can call a personal friend. We have a gentleman’s agreement that one day he’ll loan me a buggy and a horse and we’ll race. My caveat is that his horse will be buttercup and mine will be greased lightning. Lol. True story.
Big Amish community here in Southern Maryland. I always see them when going to the drag strip. Always found that kind of funny that these Amish just have to hear race cars all day. Also some Amish are like halfway modern just so they can function with normal people. We got a big Amish built playground/swingset and they pulled up 5 deep in an old chevy. Real nice work. Had a little play house with a door and nice like regular house windows with screens. Used to hotbox it with my buddies all the time in high-school. Was so nice that 12 years after it was built, long after my sister had grew out of it someone paid a few grand for it and came and picked it up.
Sure, great carpenters, but definitely not good people. They completely shun members of the community that want to move on and live in the outside world, and they treat animals like absolute garbage. Look up Amish puppy mills. It's sick, and a very real problem in PA, MD, and OH.
I live among the Amish. Some are good carpenters. Saying all Amish are good carpenters is like saying all Canadians are good hockey players. There are also good and bad people among the Amish, just like everyone else.
@@joew8440 Lol right. The generalizations here are wild. “I met an Amish guy, he was good so they all must be” is the same logic that results in negative stereotypes of other populations. They are people with a different set of values. Some are bad and some are good. Just like the people in these comments. They aren’t uniformly good.
I used to work with some Amish when I was building RVs and cargo trailers in Goshen, Indiana. They’re extremely hardworking. Legit had a 67 year old Amish dude named Milo train me to build trailers
I live in North Central Indiana which is about an hour North of Pat and we are surrounded by the Amish. Actually we call them German Baptist but there are several different groups that have their own churches and rules. Most of them drive cars, have electricity at home, and some even send their children to public schools but there's also those who drive horse and buggy and have no electricity. I see the horse and buggies drive through town several times a week and they go to the store or take care of whatever business they have. Sometimes you'll see young kids driving them too and once I was at the gas station and an Amish kid came up and asked if I'd help him pump some gas into his gas can. I asked him if it was his first time and he said no but he's not allowed to pump it I guess due to his religion so I pumped it for him. They are the nicest people you will ever meet and I'll never forget the party we had at one of my German Baptist classmates house the night before we graduated high school.
I guess it different depending on the community or church there's a former Amish on RUclips and he's said their order was so hardcore they couldn't even have bikes
Wish Pat would see this! In central Illinois the Amish hold the Amish Open where Amish play golf and get hammered! They can smash the golf balls and watching them play softball is something else as well.
I can confirm some of the Amish info. I was the local transportation for the Amish in very rural Colorado. I'd pick up their guests a few hours away at the train station and was paid per mile and per hour. Best Job and amazing kindness from the folks. (Also Don't be surprised if you see a buried extension cord for things like sewing machines but you didn't hear it from me)
Born&raised in Lancaster county and I can confirm the Amish really do it all.. but they’re more involved in the real world than you think. The Amish use a decent amount of technology, most families have a iphone, you should see some of these horse&buggy stereo systems.. oh and the kids do get down, the barn parties they have are absolutely electric and they can really put down some natty ices 😂
Yep. I had a few Amish crews I contracted with when I was in construction and some of them had phones they’d use for business but stow away when they got home. Some Amish communities are a little more open to stuff than others and some individuals are a little more willing to bend rules. Just like everyone else in the world, there’s no one size fits all description.
Depends what church around us are some of the poorest and strict, however in a different church they can be more modern and also have more money and businesses
I had an Amish guy in Wisconsin build my woodworking shop; 24 X 28. His bishop in his community allowed him and his guys to go and build buildings on-site, and with Milwaukee recharging tools. They built fast
Can confirm they build barns in a weekend. I witnessed a neighbor lose a barn to a hay fire and his church came Saturday morning and a new barn was up Sunday evening followed by a massive volleyball tournament.
Never thought I'd see the day Pat is talking about the Amish. I'm from the O.G. Amish area (Lancaster County, PA). Hardest working people I've met. Their baked goods are out of this world. If you're ever in Lancaster County, the best places to visit are Roots (pronounced Rutts. Think Butts but with a R instead of a B and it's only open on Tuesday), Green Dragon (only open on Fridays except swap meet Saturdays), and Central Market. Stay away from the tourist area of Route 30. Unless you like shopping.
I will say this. Pretty much all Amish have phones now. They can’t have electricity wired to their houses, but they can have it in their barns, sheds, or businesses. They also aren’t really supposed to own electronics or automobiles but they can rent whatever they need. So you will every once in a while see an Amish guy driving around a van, but that’s very very uncommon.
I live in Amish area in Southern Indiana. They have taken to using solar panels at their houses. There is even an Amish owned solar panel manufacturer. Most Amish have smart phones now. I am a woodworker and do business with Amish regularly.
I work for a german baptist family who own a store/bakery, hands down nicest people i’ve ever met. only job i’ve ever had and been there for 2 1/2 years
Back in the 90 in my village in Guyana if you had electricity you was a top atop a TV with vcr you making money showing movies. 4 to 500 people paying just to stand up and watch. The best days of my life as a teenager
Amish people just call non-amish people "English" for the most part. They usually hire english folks like us to drive for deliveries for their businesses etc since they don't drive. So they can be pretty up to date with a lot more than what people think they would know in the world of entertainment etc They're not entirely cut off from the outside world as some might think. The Amish have some of the best diners and make some of the best home baked foods I've ever had.
I think there is a lot of Amish that are Colts fans here in Indiana. I remember one year I drove to a friend's house to watch a Colts playoff game that was north of Fort Wayne and I had to drive thru a heavily Amish populated area. As I was going there there was like 47 buggies lined up outside of a barn. I thought wow must be a wedding, but it was a Sunday afternoon and I thought that was a weird time for a Amish wedding. Well it was one of those classic playoff losses to the chargers so I left (pissed off) a few minutes before the game was over. And when I drove by that Amish barn everyone of them were leaving (visibly pissed as well) then I realized that must of been the only one with a TV in their barn and all of Grabill was grouped up there watching the Colts playoff game.
Did it happen to be Lagrange County? Cause that place is LOADED with Amish and gimmicky Amish tourist traps. Moving from San Antonio, to Shipshewana (north of Fort Wayne) was a complete culture shock lmao
@@LordWafflestomp Nah, it was in Grabill Indiana. It's like right north of Fort Wayne. Shipshewana is like the mecca of Amish. Grabill is a dinky lil town, I think its in Allen County with Fort Wayne.
@Logan Parson part of it was RV work and the other part was that I didn't wanna leave the relationship I was in and moved with my gf (now fiancé) here since it's where she's originally from.
They also work in factories! I'm from elkhart County, Indiana, and I pick an Amish man up every day for work! He's awesome. He's allowed to ride with me. We build RVs and have about 20 total Amish at our factory!
I used to deliver sheds with a cousin in law who used to be Amish. Always found it interesting listening to him talk to someone in Pennsylvania dutch and there being random English words because they don't have a word for it
I lived in Fort Wayne for 17 years. It’s a trip to see the Amish park their horse and buggy at Meijer at the hitching post and then pull out their cell phone and make a call. Or see then on the phone while they are driving the horse and buggy.
Was back home in Knox co Indiana last week, hadn't seen Amish folks since I moved away. They have some great food as well. Y'all should jit up Dogwood in Vincennes
Moving to Ohio, I've seen Amish people for the first time when I was working in a GetGo. I didn't think I'd see them just shopping for everyday items I thought were forbidden in their community.
So funny. I'm in NW Ohio, and over in Indiana there's a bunch of communities. Hell everyone in a 500 mile radius has been to Shipshewana. I used to do business with them, with the cabinet shops and they are really cool people once they trust you. Once you're in the door and someone vouches for you, it's a different world. They do a lot of work in my area putting up barns and reroofing old wooded barns. They start before the sun comes up, go home at 2 or 3 oclock and get more done than a regular crew in 2 days. But they come 10 at a time and know what they're doing. Don't think it's cheap though, they know what they're worth and are in demand. they can build a barn in 3 days, seen it happen. They aren't playing on their iPhones that's for sure. They refer to us as "The English" has been my experience. My sister lives in a community full of them in NE Ohio. They all wave, friendly in a store. But god man, driving those buggies over those curvy hilly roads? got bigger balls than me. No way in hell I'd do it.
I work as a carpenter in upstate NY. A lot of Amish. Incredible roofers. I've seen them cut trim board with a chain saw. Absolute Doooogs. I've never brought myself to ask them about themselves because depending on the community they seem to have different rules and it feels rude to ask about their beliefs.
I live outside of a small town in northern Wisconsin when I was a kid there was a small Amish community that have land right next to my family's land and then one day they all left fast forward 30 years later two weeks ago I see moving vans unloading horse buggies in all kinds of stuff back into their Old Homestead😊
They have power no power lines going to their Farm I'm guessing they used some sort of generators? I really want to go visit them but I don't want to intrude so I'm going to wait for them if they want to use my land for hunting or anything
I’m willing to bet their are quite a few Pat resembling Amish in and around Lancaster. The old sheet and stick method to produce a strong crop for $50.
Pat, I live in Lancaster, PA (as I’m sure a few others on this comment section). I married into a Mennonite family (more progressive) and have plenty of interaction with Amish. We would be happy to take you around if your ever in town 🤙🏻 I can confirm their love of football at the very least haha
I remember going to ft Wayne for the summer and ended up going to an Amish water park . Coming from Alabama I always was cool with the mennonites and attended they church during the summer .
Grew up around the Amish in eastern PA. They replaced my grandparents very very steep roof with a foreman that was 15 and workers even younger. I was in my 30’s and never felt more shame. I was playing with Legos at their ages! Great clear-minded people.

What a wild Pat Mcafee Story
"The purge with electricity." 🤣🤣🤣
I live in Amish area in Southern Indiana. They have taken to using solar panels at their houses. There is even an Amish owned solar panel manufacturer. Most Amish have smart phones now. I am a woodworker and do business with Amish regularly.
Where I’m from in southern indiana there is a massive amish community. They got a monopoly on the barn building business’s around here
The Amish are the kindest, hardest working people ❤
I work for a german baptist family who own a store/bakery, hands down nicest people i’ve ever met. only job i’ve ever had and been there for 2 1/2 years
Back in the 90 in my village in Guyana if you had electricity you was a top atop a TV with vcr you making money showing movies. 4 to 500 people paying just to stand up and watch. The best days of my life as a teenager
I live in Fort Wayne, and the Amish love their tech! They use phones & a lot of them now have solar panels with printers and internets.
Amish people just call non-amish people "English" for the most part. They usually hire english folks like us to drive for deliveries for their businesses etc since they don't drive. So they can be pretty up to date with a lot more than what people think they would know in the world of entertainment etc They're not entirely cut off from the outside world as some might think. The Amish have some of the best diners and make some of the best home baked foods I've ever had.

Did connor say BYOE as in bring your own electricity around the 9 min mark??
I think there is a lot of Amish that are Colts fans here in Indiana. I remember one year I drove to a friend's house to watch a Colts playoff game that was north of Fort Wayne and I had to drive thru a heavily Amish populated area. As I was going there there was like 47 buggies lined up outside of a barn. I thought wow must be a wedding, but it was a Sunday afternoon and I thought that was a weird time for a Amish wedding. Well it was one of those classic playoff losses to the chargers so I left (pissed off) a few minutes before the game was over. And when I drove by that Amish barn everyone of them were leaving (visibly pissed as well) then I realized that must of been the only one with a TV in their barn and all of Grabill was grouped up there watching the Colts playoff game.
Did it happen to be Lagrange County? Cause that place is LOADED with Amish and gimmicky Amish tourist traps. Moving from San Antonio, to Shipshewana (north of Fort Wayne) was a complete culture shock lmao
@@LordWafflestomp Nah, it was in Grabill Indiana. It's like right north of Fort Wayne. Shipshewana is like the mecca of Amish. Grabill is a dinky lil town, I think its in Allen County with Fort Wayne.
@@LordWafflestomp why would you move from there to here??? Just curious lol hope it’s not for RV work
@@Rainbow_friends_Gartenofbanban lmaoooo it was 💀 and boy has it not been great 🤣
@Logan Parson part of it was RV work and the other part was that I didn't wanna leave the relationship I was in and moved with my gf (now fiancé) here since it's where she's originally from.
They also work in factories! I'm from elkhart County, Indiana, and I pick an Amish man up every day for work! He's awesome. He's allowed to ride with me. We build RVs and have about 20 total Amish at our factory!
One love from Lancaster pa!
God I love Pat’s stories!!
I used to deliver sheds with a cousin in law who used to be Amish. Always found it interesting listening to him talk to someone in Pennsylvania dutch and there being random English words because they don't have a word for it
I can confirm this is correct 😂 Pennsylvania Dutch is my first language.
I lived in Fort Wayne for 17 years. It’s a trip to see the Amish park their horse and buggy at Meijer at the hitching post and then pull out their cell phone and make a call. Or see then on the phone while they are driving the horse and buggy.
Used to live up in Bristol indiana tons of amish ppl awesome friendly ppl
Hey pat amish here love the show ALOT of Amish love football..I’ve watched your show for a while now
Lol they must be from Grabill or Berne. Come give us a visit in Berne sometime Pat!
Was back home in Knox co Indiana last week, hadn't seen Amish folks since I moved away. They have some great food as well. Y'all should jit up Dogwood in Vincennes
We got an Amish Town in Sarasota Florida
The man,the myth,the legend,Steeevveee Red!
We got Amish in my area in Ohio and a community not far from and the dudes are WORKERS
There is a video out there of 300 Amish dudes, picking up a barn and moving it across the field. It’s absurd.
Good ole Harlan/Leo Indiana! 🤠
this story reminds me of the movie "sex drive" GREAT movie! Love you Pat and the BOYS!
Great ppl use to deliver in a rural area where they live great ppl everyone waves at you when you ride past salute
They call us the "English".... By the way Pat, that was an awesome story.🔥👏🏽💙👍🏽
Shoutout Lancaster PA
Moving to Ohio, I've seen Amish people for the first time when I was working in a GetGo. I didn't think I'd see them just shopping for everyday items I thought were forbidden in their community.
Dude Connor is fuxking hilarious with his quick interjections
I live 20 mins from Brush Valley. Stouffers…. If you know, you know
So funny. I'm in NW Ohio, and over in Indiana there's a bunch of communities. Hell everyone in a 500 mile radius has been to Shipshewana.
I used to do business with them, with the cabinet shops and they are really cool people once they trust you. Once you're in the door and someone vouches for you, it's a different world. They do a lot of work in my area putting up barns and reroofing old wooded barns. They start before the sun comes up, go home at 2 or 3 oclock and get more done than a regular crew in 2 days. But they come 10 at a time and know what they're doing. Don't think it's cheap though, they know what they're worth and are in demand. they can build a barn in 3 days, seen it happen. They aren't playing on their iPhones that's for sure.
They refer to us as "The English" has been my experience.
My sister lives in a community full of them in NE Ohio. They all wave, friendly in a store. But god man, driving those buggies over those curvy hilly roads? got bigger balls than me. No way in hell I'd do it.
I’m looking forward to the Masters!
Pat McAfee is probably in the secret Amish Football Hall of Fame.
0:54 had me actually laughing out loud once I realized what they were referencing.
I work as a carpenter in upstate NY. A lot of Amish. Incredible roofers. I've seen them cut trim board with a chain saw. Absolute Doooogs. I've never brought myself to ask them about themselves because depending on the community they seem to have different rules and it feels rude to ask about their beliefs.
Don't worry about being rude most Amish don't care
We need Pat to do a Remote live from Shipshewana, In. That’s the middle of indiana Amish country.
I live outside of a small town in northern Wisconsin when I was a kid there was a small Amish community that have land right next to my family's land and then one day they all left fast forward 30 years later two weeks ago I see moving vans unloading horse buggies in all kinds of stuff back into their Old Homestead😊
They have power no power lines going to their Farm I'm guessing they used some sort of generators? I really want to go visit them but I don't want to intrude so I'm going to wait for them if they want to use my land for hunting or anything
My wife's dad works with the Amish. I've met a few of em they seemed really nice
I had the local Amish build a 2 story "shed" that was converted to an in-law suite. My parents love their little house.
They would call you “English!” I grew up Mennonite and it is so funny to hear you talk through this stuff!
That's funny I'm also amish, from Northern Indiana
I grew up in the country around Amish. Fascinating people to say the least lol
I’m in Amish county Clark mills pa and we play church softball and the best team in the league is Amish they are cracked!
Come on pat get Steve some roofs. We'll get yalls houses lookin slick with standing seam metal roof!!!💯💯💯
I'm from fort wayne. And I can attest, these guys can build houses!
Im amish an this segment was gold😂😂😂lmaoooo,an i can confirm we do know football trust me,an alot of amish have more tech. than ppl think.
I love all the clueless people in the comments 😂😂
I’m willing to bet their are quite a few Pat resembling Amish in and around Lancaster. The old sheet and stick method to produce a strong crop for $50.
Pat, I live in Lancaster, PA (as I’m sure a few others on this comment section). I married into a Mennonite family (more progressive) and have plenty of interaction with Amish. We would be happy to take you around if your ever in town 🤙🏻 I can confirm their love of football at the very least haha
Deep down we always knew the Amish thing was kind of a work
I remember going to ft Wayne for the summer and ended up going to an Amish water park . Coming from Alabama I always was cool with the mennonites and attended they church during the summer .
Love It Pat The Pat McAfee Show Bro
"He didn't make you pull it out of his pocket" re cell phone was a brilliant joke
They call non Amish the English
100%
"STEVE" lol......Pat has some serious AMISH info and he know how to handle them rowdy ones!
I really appreciate the explanation between Amish and Mennonite
Mennonite
