Laffin' Sal debuted at Kennywood in 1931 as a free attraction in front of the Laff in the Dark during the Great Depression, when her laughs provided some of the best medicine available in that sad period. When the ride was razed in 1965 to make room for the Turnpike, Sal went into retirement in a storage bin. But life began again in her 40's, and she has been laughing ever since.
