Pittsburgh Dad goes to Kennywood

This is great, plus you get to see all the charm that is Kennywood.

"You used to go in on a whale's mouth." Remember the squishy tongue?

That's pretty funny. I am not a Dad, but I can relate to his rants. And anything sponsored by Turners Iced Tea is great!

I would kill myself. This guy is annoying.

But one thing is for sure: I SO want to go to Kennywood now!

Footage....A

Dad...F-

Maybe the most annoying "actor" I've ever seen in an amusement park related video.

Bunky, have you not been to Kennywood?

Annoying? Gawd I went to high school with people like him. Nailed it dead on.

Mike, I have not! When I planned my Cedar Point trip, I was going to go to Waldameer and Kennywood as well, but I just didn't have time because I was having so much fun with my grandmother that I stayed with her an extra day (she lived about two hours away from Kennywood). For some reason, I just can't bring myself to go out that way since she passed away...I don't know why. But I think it will be on my to do list for this year. The park looks charming and filled with fun rides.

I want to ride that little flying Musik Express looking thing.

I love me some Kennywood. We went for Phantom Fright Night last year and had a blast. Black Widow's a good addition to the park.

Geez that was obnoxious. I shut it off at the 6 minute mark. I just can't listen to some gay bad actor bitch for that long.

This guy appeals to my friends who live in Pittsburgh, but I can not stand him. I don't get it, for the most part.

I did, however, enjoy the shots of the park, and his nostalgic mentions.

I'm gonna play the "born and raised in Western PA" card right here...

...and I think it's beyond dumb. If I knew nothing about Kennywood this would make me not want to go.

I'm from Pittsburgh, too, and I'm not even going to click that link. He's a completely normal guy-next-door in real life who stumbled upon an act that many find funny. I find his videos obnoxious and think they put the city in a bad light.

Maybe there's irony in the fact that when I give that opinion, so many local friends tell me to "lighten up."

I'm not implying that everyone in the 'Burgh is like this guy, but I think that we've all known at least one person like him. Plus I've witnessed these very same conversations at the park many, many times over the years.

Having grown up two hours from Pittsburgh myself, the reason I can't stand the guy is because I am so used to people acting like that that I find it to be somewhat normal. What he is doing isn't special or anything. It just looks like a guy complaining a lot to me. It's not funny. It's kind of boring.

Exactly!

I don't get the appeal, either. There's nothing funny about it. And I'm glad there are people from Pittsburgh on here who have confirmed as much.

Yeah, I don't get it either. People go ape**** for him. He read Twas the Night Before Christmas at Kennywood and pretty much everyone in the park was crowded around.

Krause said it best. It's just an average jagoff complaining about average jagoff stuff.

Hm, I'm from the Pittsburgh area and never heard of him till now. Lucky I guess.

Here you go guys,

A whole hour and a half of PGH dad commenting on the Super Bowl.

Yinz can hate on me later :)

Stupid. I stopped watching at around the 2:00 mark. How this video has almost 200K hits is beyond me, but I bet most viewers didn't make it through all eight minutes...

Just out of curiosity, how do you know he's gay?
