That's pretty cool. I hope it had bandaids were the dino got sore. Lol. You know why the building was scared you went into? Because it had no guts. Geeze I crack meself up. That one place was inspired by the monkeys ma lol.
If you ever get a chance to visit the May-Stringer house inside, do it!! was in it a decade ago, it was beautiful inside, and a little spooky around the stairs. thank you for showing some of Brooksville i haven't seen yet! i remember there being a Big Boy restaurant in South Pasadena about 30 years ago. glad you made it Sunken Gardens.

Hi Tampa Jay! 👋 I recently discovered your channel ~ LOVE it! I've passed that 1/2 dinasaur many times and always wondered what the story is about it. Thanks for the enlightenment on this landmark. 🤝
I love your roadside attraction videos, a lot of neat finds! I love that big old house with the curtains. You sure found a lot of mermaids! That’s a nice little town, thanks for the video!
This dinosaur is an amazing attraction on the old US 476 in Hernando County. I first saw it in 1976 and met the family of the gentleman who constructed it. There were other dinosaur full-scale models as well that were constructed. We did locate the stegosaurus, and it is privately owned elsewhere in Hernando County on private property. I would love to see the neck and head placed on it and then restored making it one of our counties most unique features. We actually have 3 full-scale dinosaurs as roadside attractions here in HernandoCounty. If you know the other two and where they are, please comment!❤
"Watching to see if the curtains move" Lol..., too funny! Actually I thought I saw them move for a second there too! Very interesting little glimpse of old time Americana there and love to see those old PU trucks. That turquoise one at the end is my kinda cruiser!
Thanks for visit my hometown. If U walk around Brooksville U can find many other mermaids hiding around. It’s called the mermaid walk. Glad u could hang out for a bit
Peaches Grace Thank you Grace I always appreciate you watching even if you don’t comment, I appreciate you breaking the silence :-) that was a fun one to make
@@TampaJay I have actually been to that town at some point when I lived in Georgia, Jasper has such a beautiful courthouse, hope you have a great weekend! 👍👍
first was a sad story, man! Cool inside tho. Love the abandoned. Dope murals! movin curtains :-D omg I LOVE those old chevy trucks and Americana !! Interesting vid, TG!
I’ve been curious about Coney Island Drive in...now I have to go, lots of photo ops there. The mermaids downtown are part of a fairly new activity in Brooksville, The Florida Mermaid Trail. They have a facebook page and website. It’s a walking trail/tour 😁. What a bizarre thing about the headless dinosaur; you’d think by now that someone would have finished it. Kind of sad that no one did. The May-Stringer house has a great history, be sure to check it out. They also go live on facebook fairly often when there’s good paranormal activity. I’m not certain I believe in all of that but it’s still fun. It was also on my list of things to see but was derailed by the pandemic 😳. Sooner or later it’ll happen. Thanks for the tour & take care 😎🧜🏼♀️
American Girl "On 441, like waves crashing on the beach" allegedly about a girl who committed suicide from a dorm at UF......... RIP the man from Gainesville.
Thank you for the correction I think I’ve had Tom saying “old 41” in my mind for awhile now. I looked up the lyrics just a moment ago. I even listened to American Girl in my car as I was creating this video and still heard “old” this just means I need to get my ears checked I guess haha . I hear “441” clear as day now though. I’m glad you enjoyed the video thank you so much man
@@TampaJay Come on Jay.... This is ole B Caldwell you're talking to here brother...... Your videos lately have been top notch 👍 Much love and looking forward to much ahead man....✌
Nice to see the Bottle of Spray Disenfectant/Cleaner next to the TV. But, Just because Florida has "Re-opened" Does NOT Mean, Covid-19 is Gone! Where is your Mask Jay or for that matter anyone else's? Just curious! Also, why are those people eating at those indoor tables? Love Your Alice Cooper Shirt Too! I saw three of his shows over that tour! :)
I lost count I say a lot in this one I quoted the goonies twice and dumb and dumber twice also. Even did a television show reference. Glad you caught the history of the world part 1 one though lol thank you buddy
Good video Jay. Do they still have that statue of the Confederate soldier at the courthouse? There was controversy to have it removed. Those buildings look like an abandoned housing project. There articles about that too. Livery pronounced with a short i. That turquoise Chevy at the end was beautiful. I think my dad had one. Also, Brooksville country club was built around an old quarry, and 4 of the holes go into the quarry.
My dad Bill Swan made the Big Boy and several other iconic fiberglass statues like the Ford Mustang horse which is what the emblem was copied from he made several iconic fiberglass statues which are in a short Amazon ebook for only 14.99 called "The man behind the mufflerman ".
Did you know Brooksville had an air base there during world war II and did you know did there used to be a lake I don't know if it's still there but there used to be a lake that was in a shape of a horse in Brooksville
Also , MLB pitcher and 2004 Boston Red Sox MVP Bronson Arroyo grew up and graduated from here. Another fun fact: The man who is the voice of "Spaceghost" from cartoon network is also from here.
@@TampaJay A mythical headless horseman in folklore from the Middle Ages. Rode around on horseback in the dead of the night, scary stuff !! It was made into a movie, Google it.
