    Laughing Sal at Kennywood Park's penny arcade located in West Mifflin, Pa. This theme park also has rides open during their Christmas event in December. It is about 3.5 hours from Hershey.

    AFAIK, my grandmother (who lived in Hershey from 1950 - 2010) confirmed that the Laffing Sal under glass at LaffTrack is indeed the original Laffing Sal who used to preside over the Hershey Park walk-through funhouse "Whoops!" It was closed in the late 60s. You can see photos of it on some of the murals in the Boardwalk area of the park today.
    It might be fun to drive out to the Allen Theater in Annville. It's a 1930s movie theater that has been restored to its original glory. You might want to call ahead, I have no idea what their post-COVID schedule is like. The owners rescued a large number of Hershey Park animatronics. HP never had that many, but those on display include Laffing Sal (currently on loan to Hershey Park), a knockoff Rockafire Explosion band of bears similar to the one at Knoebels, and I think they may also have acquired Mimi the Mermaid from the now defunct Kid's Cove area near Zoo America (it is currently a picnic pavilion).
    Also: the monorail was intended to replace the old Trolley system (check out the Hershey Historical Society behind the outlet malls for more info on that) that existed from about 1900 - 1960. The last trolley rail was torn up in the 1990s. Sadly, the monorail could not compete with the American auto industry, and was never expanded beyond its present route around the Park and the old Hershey Department Store (now Houlihan's) and the Hershey Bank (I think it's a PNC branch now).

    Donner is the German name for Thor. This is also why Donner being Rudolph’s after is integral to the Rudolph mythos, as Donner’s name is a reflection of his status amongst the other reindeer, which makes Rudolph’s initial oetracization even more disappointing to his fatherhood

    Technically all Santa’s reindeer have to be female, male reindeer keep there antlers from spring to fall .Most males (bulls) shed their fuzzy antlers before the beginning of winter.They only need them for the mating season,occurs in the fall. Once the male reindeer have used their antlers to impress their mates, they no longer need them and they fall out/ shed them before Christmastime. Females retain their antlers throughout winter until after they give birth to calves in the spring/may time .This gives the expectant mothers a means to protect food resources through the harsh weather and there new offspring from predators and adult males.
    So any reindeer with antlers at Christmas time are female. Unless they’re steers, castrated males they don’t lose there antlers until February or mid March.
