What were your favorite memories In Knott's Bear-y Tales?

[Bear-y Tales fan]

Ahh memories.... I used to love that ride (along with the old steeple chase and soapbox derby racers)

I think my favorite parts of it were the lightning tunnel (where the chain lift was) and the song that everyone sung at the end.

If anyone is interested. YouTube has the complete ride though on it.

i forgot to mention that My son posted 2 ridethroughs of Knott's Bear-y Tales along with other things like the playhouse where bear-y tales was reloacated on youtube.Here is the link to both of them and the funhouse. also the halloween overlay.voulume on the 2nd ridethrough is low.

Thank you so much for posting this BTF! This ride was truly one of my fondest memories growing up. My Aunt worked there when I was 3 so I got to ride this one quite a bit. Thanks again, I smiled the whole time watching it!

Bear-y Tales Fan thx so much for posting the videos. It sure brings back memories. I worked on the ride when it first opened. I am aashee's aunt and had fun bringing him on the ride. I also still have the book telling the beary tale story.

Having it close when I was only 6 leaves me with little recollection, but I DO remember the Frog Forest vividly, as well as how terrified I was of the giant spider in the Thunder cave.

The County Fair scene was amazing as well. Once I saw old photos of the attraction, all the memories came back..

This attraction is truly one of the greatest ever created.

Yes it was designed by good Old Rolly Crump.I still talk to him this day.the ride was supposed to be a country western story,A boy and his donkey going to the fair,1950's,gypsy's,and a china story.all of the characters were supposed to be humans but evolved into bear's as development went on because bears were popular at the time and still are.
