❤❤❤❤ My childhood. I met the drummer from Staind there before they got on the radio. I got a sample cd of theirs and all of a sudden they were on the radio a year later. I used to get in for free as my best friends dad used to work there every year.

First seat roller coaster! YEAH! I used to ride 'em first chair, hands in the air. My only complaint is that it was a short coaster. I liked seeing the drop coming, and the sound of the wooden coasters. The Fusion felt like fun. (I have a weird sense of fun.) The Cliffhanger would have gotten me sick for sure - an possibly oxygen-deprived to boot. (can't breathe as well face down)

It is impressive, but I would always dread the Big E back when I was a delivery driver. The whole region gets gridlocked for a 2 mile radius every weekend

Interesting and difficult for me to get interested in the fair these days. It is what it is and is scaled down in so many ways, no race track for example. Most of the ride’s appeared pretty lame too, sorry to be a downer. You are a very brave soul for getting on them. Thank you and I hope you keep on going.

The rides are pretty standard carnival rides. Nothing special. They just have a lot more than most carnivals do.

The "Fusion" looks like a smaller "Round Up" ride. If I recall, the "Round Up"'s actually tilt further up and more verticle. I used to ride them in the 70's. The one thing I remember about them is that they ran faster than this Fusion one. And they were always uncomfortable when you got to the point where you were closer to the ground. That's probably why they lowered the tilt with these newer ones. And those Big E dark rides and funhousers were ALWAYS in poor repair. I remember riding them a few years ago and most of them had absolutely NO functioning elements inside of them. They were just riding a cart through a trailer and that was it. Nothing popping up. No sound effects. Nothing lighting up. Nothing. Even the funhouses seemed on their last legs with nothing working in them.

Loving the video! And I only just started watching. It's been so long since I've been to the Big E. I can't remember the last time I was on a carnival ride. awesome stuff 👍 edit: oh, and the Fusion Ride footage (with Go Pro horizon feature) was wild! lol. It looked fun (except for the rides that aren't powered, or break down lol) The guy at 18:36 should were a monster mask and pretend it's all a normal part of the experience 😅

I agree. It kind of broke the illusion when he came in. Those dark rides need a lot of work. They always seems to have something not working.

I used to work at the Big E and loved the spiral potato chips,fried mushrooms, and cheese curds!! Unfortunately it looks like the rides need some updating for the cost… and the simulation ride was a extra charge!??? WoW 😮 Every year it gets more expensive and less for your money!! Did they still have the huge slide!? Again I think that’s a extra charge aside from the ride bracelet!! I used to love the big E , but haven’t gone in years due to each year there is less quality and more expensive!! It’s a money trap, and with the economy it’s not worth the $$!! In my opinion!! Have you ever gone to the Belchertown fair ?? Surprisingly they have alot of rides ( at least they did) and free to enter… it was this past weekend and is the same time every year!! Might want to try it while in the area for the Big E next year!? Thank you for the video!!

Yeah, the simulator was an extra charge. Not sure if it was worth it.... The slide is still there. That will be in part 2 of the video. Never been to the Belchertown Fair. I may go to some local fairs or carnivals this year....

@@fleabittenadventures The Belchertown fair is actually fairly big considering the size of the commons!! It has ( in previous years) and descent amount of carnival rides, and food vendors!! Also the Italian fest in province RI is great .. it’s always around Columbus day and the all of federal hill is shut down!! Again thank you for the big E video!!

When I went to the Big E, the same guy was at one of the prize stands saying, "Step on town and get a priiiiize" and i didn't mind it, until i saw a group of probably 16 year old girls walk by and he said, "Come on pretty baby, you know you want one. Why don't you get a prize?" And that freaked me out 🥲
