Today we are at Michigan's Adventure and we're really excited to be here because this is
the last one of the Cedar Fair Parks that we needed to film the games at aka the Snoopy
parks am I right does anyone else call them the Snoopy Parks so we're really excited we
played these games actually last year before we were filming and um it took a lot of our
money so I'm sad because I know Bowler Roller is already not here but let's see if we can
play some games at Michigan's Adventure.
All right maybe against my better interest we're gonna start today at Milk Cans it's
five dollars for three balls I think we're gonna pay twice to get six balls for 10 bucks
which is mediocre deal in my opinion but they're not too far away actually we just watched
the employee show it off and they won it which I always love it's always impressive when
the employee wins it. I like when the employees yeah they should. Yep so. If you're a theme
park watching this make your employees play. Make your employees play the game uh but it
is a one in wins um it's just a red line down here you can probably see it so let's give
it a shot I guess right? Yeah! Okay so we did ask for tips and tricks and we recommend
that you do this as well and um the employee working the game here did say that though
the right one might be easier they've had more luck on it so I mean like there's no
harm in trying it right? I mean you might as well go for the better option. Yeah all
right we are ready.
Okay you hit the bear poor bear.
He hit the poor bear!
Oh goodness okay oh a rebound play I love it
Okay oh man now he's really running around for it.
That was so close. All right we got a second play though. Okay yeah so he went ahead and
paid for um two rounds of the game and um sometimes we do this because basically we
know that he does pretty well at this game in about six tries so we might as well prepay
for it that way he gets in his groove a little bit better and you're good to go oh that was
groovy yeah, it was good straight wise though oh my gosh that was so close, oh my goodness
that was one of the closest ones I've seen in a while so um we might have to play it
I don't know we're gonna see their opening games right now so let's see if we can play
some other games. Okay it is bushel basket time and I have to note that these are the
smallest bushel baskets these are 12 inch Squishmallows for reference um these literally
just look like they're from like a craft store like maybe the Christmas clearance selection
I'm not lying I'm sorry I'm trying not to roast this game but I'm roasting this game
today um and which one are you going for here you going for the middle one? Okay and so
this is how far away he is and they're past are they like about your eye level? Yeah yeah
I guess.
That's crazy okay so they're higher than chest level close to eye level all right let's let's
give it a whirl so two out of three for a medium and three out of three for a Squishmallow
you know what we're hoping for, oh man yeah it's so far to get the right amount of power
um with the distance I'm I'm really not excited they took out Bowler Roller for this. I know
right?
Okay yeah so this eye game I'm gonna rank kind of a dud um I mean I love the Squishmallows
but I hate that this is a very homemade game with not a lot of effort into it. All right
it's Balloon Dart time we've got five dollars for three darts three out of three wins Choice
there is only one prize level at this game I don't love love that but um the prize is
a really nice Kellytoys a good medium sized plush Balloons look okay so let's see let's
see how it's going. Feeling okay. Okay yes we're so ready okay there's one.
Oh we are out of the running.
Oh my gosh me and oh my gosh we're having a rough day today that's an understatement.
Okay we've got another game they've called it Fuzzy Wuzzy and we saw this on the map
and spent probably 20 minutes discussing what we thought it could be and we were not correct
so it is a Down The Clown five dollars for three balls again three out of three wins
choice these are really great prizes but I don't love a game that doesn't have a lot
of prize levels so you know it's an all or nothing kind of situation I know that getting
the small prizes has been really hard with the supply chain issues this year but there
just has to be a way to work around this and make another option. Okay of course we have
rollerball here I actually this this one looks nice it's got some like little Blues Clues
looking dogs and it is five dollars per player and then you trade up for the larger prizes
the more players well actually it's a three player minimum so it's fifteen dollars and
then it doesn't say there's prize levels for like five players 10 players so I'm assumably
it's just you get a small prize and you would have to trade up per thing which we don't
necessarily love. But this game has uh three prize levels so. Three prize levels so that'd
be forty five dollars to get the largest prize. All right we got a classic classic guessing
game with age, weight, or birth month uh it looks like you have a $10 option and a $15
option age within two years, weight within three pounds which is your better option here,
or birth within two months to win a prize, birth within two months that means that they
have a a five month range which is almost 50 percent out of the year so that's a 50/50
shot. Don't choose that one we saw somebody we saw a couple people lose already with that
so uh I guess these are your $15 options that's your ten dollars options the weight is always
going to be your best guess if you're an adult especially if you have an ambiguous size like
like me. I think we actually have a total of three three Rising Waters or three water
gun racer games that are not going to open today that's kind of sad again I mean at least
you can take a seat they didn't take the seats away so look at you oh and they swivel swiveling
seats good to know right but they also have a ring toss game that I do not think is going
to open uh if you're coming to this park during the week you're gonna have to wait a long
time like we did if the water park is pulling all the employees kind of a kind of a weird
thing understand the staffing issues are hard but I think we've been here for like four
hours now over four hours because none of the games have been open except for maybe
like save one or two. All right we got Shootin' Hoops five dollars for two shots I will say
this is probably one of your better deals in the park five dollars for two shots one
in wins for a full-size basketball I believe that there was another three-point challenge
maybe another basketball game that didn't look like they were gonna open this season
at all let alone like today but uh if you're good at basketball I would recommend this
Sprite always Sprite why is there always Sprite? I don't know! It's always Sprite shootin hoops.
All right we have Bank a Ball over here another like quasi homemade looking game here I've
never seen one that looks like this ever these boards are pretty pretty straight on here.
Set it up to hypnotize you. That's it that's it that's it so you don't win so it's five
dollars for three balls uh again no there's no other deals here and that's something that
Cedar Fair has kind of stopped doing which is like deal levels but usually with something
like Bank a Ball you're going to see another level even at Cedar Point they have a deal.
And we don't mind paying like more to just like kind of like have more tries. Sure but
yeah five dollars for three balls I mean we're gonna try it of course we're gonna try it
right we have to try it I never seen one that looks like this we'll show you the baskets
too they also kind of look homemade uh but I I don't know I don't know how I feel about
this I think the baskets are also small comparative to the size of the board let's give it a shot.
Thick rim thick this is the top is like a whole piece of wood so it's hard. We'll give
it a shot. Okay we watched a few other people play this for a second he's putting his uh
shades on because it's a little bit sunny so what he's gonna do here is a really really
high arch you can see the board is almost as tall as Spencer and so he's gonna go like
and you have plenty of room up here so you might as well go up I'm not sure if this theory
is going to work yet but I guess we wanted to clue you in on what we're doing yes we're
ready.
Okay I can see where that approach would work here. Such a low wall here that it's almost
always gonna come out. Yeah.
Okay I'm sensing okay that did not hit the the board but it was a good practice shot.
Interesting it bounced out of the thing so that's kind of interesting to note I like
these uh ball holders though I want to just note that for a second okay.
Oh my gosh these are the bounciest wiffle balls I've ever seen in my life they got the
extra bouncy balls.
I feel like you can't go too high on it either. Oh yeah yeah you kind of going below the spiral.
Closest all day right? He just opened.
You're like the third person to play today.
Yeah this is it. No? Okay yeah. He cut me off. He cut you off okay so you paid for the
the six tries just so you could try to get in a rhythm I think you did well do you think
you'd play it again or you think you're tapped out? I think I've tapped out I'd rather go
back and play that milk can over there. Okay the milk can does look a little bit more fun.
Okay we've got Tin Can Alley and this game infamously got a lot of our money before we
ever started filming and it's because three bean bags are only two dollars this is the
absolute absolute value in the park and it has not gone up since last year which I think
is great so you have those three tries to knock all the cans off the table Spencer's
going ahead and paying for five games um we did watch someone play five games right before
us it was really good and he won one out of five so we'll see how Spencer does. All right
the only rules really are no leaning and you've got to knock them all off the table completely
so that makes sense all right center yourselves zen right? Yes.
Okay that's perfect
Okay so that was actually the strategy that he was going for so let me talk about the
strategy a little bit so you can see that there's a six can pyramid and what he did
was he tried to isolate one side so basically if you aim for the middle in this game you
do have the odds of getting like a 7 10 split like in Bowling um I guess it's like a little
bit less pins or whatever cans than bowling but um that's what he's trying to do we learned
that trick at Fantasy Island let's see if he can replicate it here, yes.
Okay so now he's got two cans over two cans up still oh this is kind of chaos okay yeah
so if those cans had fallen you would have had it so we'll see what happens on the next
one okay and I think that again I do want to mention that prepaying for some games can
definitely help you because now he doesn't have to like reset go back in line and we
are moving a little bit more efficiently efficiently because there's a line for this game and I
don't want to like slow down anyone else from paying of course yes.
Okay you did what we weren't doing everything's still on there in total chaos oh my goodness
okay that that was uh that was a rough one so we've got two more tries is that right?
Okay how are you feeling? He's feeling iffy okay I don't know are we having. There's no
space behind the thing, so if it goes straight back.
Yes the rope almost touches that uh metal backboard there okay.
oh man they're just really not falling off because of the the rope there and because
there's no room in the back so let's see this is our last chance um you can do it Spencer
I feel bad that um like they're resetting it every single time they should just have
a better system here okay so there's four on there still oh oh that last one oh my gosh
okay well you did a good job you did a good job. Okay we are back again at milk can he's
paid for six more balls he was really close he says this is the game he's gonna hopefully
win on at the end of the day so let's let's see how he does.
Okay okay here we go oh my gosh it hit the rim again it was so close oh okay perfect
straight wise it's honestly one of the closest milk cans that we've ever seen and I think
that's what the the trick is here is it's so close but still up pretty high so that's
what makes it challenging okay all right here we go next three okay oh my gosh I went in
it it went in and then came out oh I'm literally so angry oh my goodness oh my goodness, okay
two that went in and came oh oh he's gonna chase it.
Okay it is our last ditch effort to try to win something at this park today I cannot
believe that this has happened but he's paid again for six more balls so here we go yes
we're so ready.
Oh my gosh knocked over the soda cup oh goodness
Okay here we go
Okay I uh oh oh gosh um I'm feeling really negative about this but I'm trying to not
like make it negative like I'm trying not to be a Negative Nancy but I'm feeling pretty
negative right now.
Hey! Oh my goodness all you had to do was move to the left that is literally insane
okay so guys that's a great tip if you if you're having trouble with like a you know
a basketball or a bushel basket or something just move just readjust yourself like just
let it be you know what I mean? All right we're playing out these two balls. Okay. The
sign doesn't say there's a prize limit, the bushel baskets has a prize limit, this one
doesn't I don't know if we'll make it in two in a row but hopefully.
Okay we might as well try right? Yes.
Oh that would have been crazy.
Whoa! All right! I'm gonna be honest with everyone on the camera I told him not to play
again and I'm gonna let this live forever that I have to eat my words so I I need to
eat my words because I was bad and I told him not to play and I should have listened
to him and so I'm just putting it on record that he was right because I do feel like he
deserves that um what did you pick? That was your second one yeah because you did three
here and you almost got one in on this side it went did the thing oh we got twins.
Oh my goodness that is crazy okay well um oh my gosh we have to regroup. All right well
uh we're walking away with two very big plush uh I didn't I honestly didn't think we're
gonna walk away with anything by the end of this video but I'm glad we switched over to
that other milk can and we came away with two large prizes in one round I technically
only paid five dollars for these two plushies disregard all of the other money that I spent
on the other games okay. Delete all the clips delete all the evidence. Just think about
me paying five dollars for this uh overall the games here were a medium level okay they
had some fun skill games here but I it's pretty far up into Michigan so if you're this way
uh maybe uh stop and play the games in the afternoon evening uh the employees were super
nice extremely sad that they got rid of their Bowler Roller here so maybe they'll hear our
pleas we talked to a couple managers about it because they were just super nice and hopefully
hopefully they'll bring back Bowler Roller but a lot of fun at Michigan's Adventure.
