Idk if I've ever seen more pure joy in a single person than Dan as he meets a standing bottle of chocolate syrup that wears sunglasses, and making his excitement well known to everyone in the surrounding area. Never change Disney Dan, never change

Ya know, the handler “voice of the character” interpreter is a pretty good gimmick in this case. Also I can imagine all the cast members getting together backstage in their cooldown room telling stories of the man consuming their confectionery brethren.

New achievement unlocked 🔓: Complete a meet and eat at Hershey Park added to bucket list.

That poor traumatized Kiss...

I recently went down a Hersheypark rabbit hole after reminiscing on my visit in the early 2000s, seeing how the character designs have changed and what attractions are defunct like the 3-D theater show. Hershey used to look a little more kid-like, he had a backwards ball cap on and his wrapper clothes look like a hoodie - much more of an eight-year-old persona than the one today that looks more like an adult. This is awesome!

The Jolly Rancher mystery deepens, looking at the website, his picture isn't even of his costume character. It's a statue seemingly somewhat of an in-between of the two costumes seen in the video (non-shiny glasses, headphones over the ears, long-sleeved shirt and vest outfit). So that begs the question, why is he the only one whose actual costume is not pictured? And furthermore, which one should guests expect to see more often?

Sweet video, guys! (see what i did there) I love the energy of these characters’ performances. Miss Kiss, as a costume, hasn’t got much to work with, and she still sold it. Kudos to them.

I seriously said “I need to know more about the connection to Hersey Park and Hersey” and then you bought a season pass. You read my mind Dan 🤯

I am living vicariously through you in this video, Dan. I haven't been to Hersheypark in over 7 years! Skyrush is my favorite ride! The character costumes (and team member costumes) don't look half-bad either! It hurt my soul when you ate your KitKat that way.

*"YOU'RE EATING MY CHILD!"* ----Jimmy Fallon

Going to the park and finally being Jolly Rancher size is one of my most vivid Hershey memories

Jolly Rancher is like the Kid Vid of the Hershey's gang.

I just wanna say as someone who grew up in central PA, I really appreciate Hershey coverage. I went there every summer growing up, and I feel like it often gets overlooked EDIT: Not that I've finished the video, this was extremely fun and intensely nostalgic for me, thank you very much for the video! I'm absolutely looking forward to more Hershey content in the future!

Hi Disney Dan! I’m a longtime fan and I can’t begin to tell you how much joy it brings me to see you delve into Hersheypark content! Hershey was my childhood park growing up and I was OBSESSED. I knew every fact about every ride and met every character on my 6th birthday back when Chocolate World had the Chocolate Town Cafe! I had season passes every year growing up and when I come home to visit family, a trip to Hershey is always a must! I am so looking forward to your content featuring Hersheypark and if you need another Hershey enthusiast on the show, I’d love to contribute anything I can! Also I can’t wait to see your views on the characters of the 70s, especially the 2 headed Reese’s.

Dan, how are you so good at planning these things out? Poseidon Entertainment makes a video about this place, next thing you're at the park at the same time ReviewTyme does a video? Seriously, do all you theme park KZreadrs just plan this stuff out in advance? Do you all have a hive mind? XD

Twizzlers are my favorite candy (I was eating them as I watched this) so I wouldn't have the same issue with meeting Miss Twizz. That said, the "sleep paralysis demon" joke almost broke me. Hilarious!

Kit Kat was like. "A dagger through my heart you monster!"

Hershey: normal bar Reese's: chocolate.. goodness..😋 Kisses: the sweetest kiss! Jolly Rancher: look at his sass in there Milk duds: likes milk with cookies KitKat: CHOCOLATE GOODNESS #2 Twizzlers: THE DEVIL 👿 Hershey syrup: frosting Ice breakers: it's there job Rolo: likes Marco Polo Dan: amazing man who does videos for us ☺️

The leap from narrated voice over videos to this face to camera format is a huge upgrade and jolt or much needed personality. I herby vote for Dan to remake his top videos in this new format

Dan, I just want you to know that one time when I was like eight, I went to Culver's with my family and they had Scoopie, the custard mascot, out walking around and I did this exact same thing. I looked him square in the eye and ate my custard in front of him. He hung his head down low and walked dramatically away and I felt so bad and went and gave him a hug lmao.

My God. This is the single best idea in theme-park vlogging in a decade. “Keep your back turned In taking another bite”. I couldn’t breathe I was laughing so hard. Consume, consume them all!!! Probably licking princess-based confections while meeting Disney princess WILL get you thrown in Disney jail

me as a kid. "there is a place with water and fun?" me as an adult. "dude they have chocolate? im sold"

You sir are a evil genius! I wish i thought of this when we use to go to Hershey Park! Well done dan! I was crying with laughter with all this.

This video made my whole day! Fun fact: I've lived in the Lehigh Valley for 12 years, and I've never been to Dorney Park. 😂

My son and I had so much fun watching this!!! The Hershey characters are way more fun than the Disney ones

This entire video was hilarious but I can’t stop laughing at how funny this was and how it took me by surprise 18:09

Miss kiss reaction had my crying laughing 🤣

This might be the most underrated video of the year. A brilliant documentary. I'm almost angry I didnt' think of it first.

The way he went YAY when he could meet Hershey bar AND Hershey syrup at the same time was wholesome and hilarious 😊

I love this so much! I was laughing so hard. I would love so much more Hershey Park content - I grew up going almost every year!

Living close to hershey meant going EVERY summer as a kid 🍫💗 thanks for bringing back the memories dan !!!

Watching this at work on my lunch break, I really needed this laugh out loud video today. Thank you Dan!

Yours and Kenny's videos never miss🤣🤣 thanks for always bringing the laughs can't wait for the next video!🥳

I. Am. PUMPED for the hersheypark costume history! Nobody talks about them that much!!

Its funny how kitkat reacted

I grew up going to Hersheyperk and worked there for three years! The memories

This is the best Hersheypark video EVER.

Eat all the Twizzlers Dan 😂

Dan committed the ultimate Kit Kat sin.

I saw on a park character Insta page that the Jolly Rancher with the headphones around his neck is the new design. Makes sense since now he’s actually listening to you lol

OMG they have changed so much. I had lots of confectionary friends during my college summers. And I distinctly remember when Twizzler was a boy. 😂 Reese was my favorite candy to hang out with, though. Edit: how did I forget about Nutrageous when he was regularly fought over to dance with.

I loved this vid👍🏻 k remember going to Hershey park and I think we didn’t actually go inside we just did the free dark ride where they give you chocolate at the end and the cows singing “hersheys milk chocolate” remains rent free in my head

My dad used to work there but now we live somewhere else. This video brings back lots of nostalgia for me.

Hershey park is my home park and this is so funny. I love your channel so much! Thanks for showing my home park some love!

As a Hershey local...this is GOLD. 😆😆

Something about the Kidz Bop music blasting in the background really enhances the experience.

First of all finally some really good footage of the characters on KZread. Second, my experience with any of the characters was limited because the Hershey Bar was going in. He was nice enough for me to take a picture of him though, so we didn't get snubbed. We only did Chocolate World, but drove AROUND the park, so you saw all the coasters and such which was awesome. Hersheypark is slowly but surely becoming a destination park with more than just the park, and I think that's awesome.

Welcome to Hershey Disney Dan!!! I still love the fact you can drive through the town and still smell chocolate and to see the kisses on the street lamps.. it’s only a lil over an hour and 1 hour to Dorney park from where I live!!

As a person who lives like 45 minutes from Hersheypark and therefore visits on a regular basis, this video made me laugh even more than anticipated. I don't think I've seen a person so exited to meet the anthropomorphized candy bars in about 2 decades. 🤣🤣 Once, I think it was in 6th grade early summer 2003, my grandfather, best friend and I made it our mission to ride every coaster in the park (at that time) and somehow managed.

oh man i can't wait to see more hershey park videos !!

This was hilarious!! I also had the chance to meet Milk Duds a few years ago - I never knew you could meet him or the syrup/ice breakers/york/etc. I'll have to try and meet them someday too!

Ah, I drove past Hershey recently but didn't have time to stop! Can't wait for more on this park.

I second Dan on the Reese's Cups thing. Theyre crack to me.
