In
the tradition of Robert Ripley and his search for the

the launch of the fourth “Oddest Laugh in Texas”
contest.
Any Texan
who feels they have an unusual laugh is invited to call the toll
free number 1-877-361-HAHA (4242) to record their laugh
at its best! On November 30, the contest will close and a panel
of judges consisting of Ripley’s executives and local media
personalities will select up to 10 finalists. These finalists
will be invited to appear on December 8 at the Grand Prairie location
for a final Laugh-Off to determine the “Oddest Laugh in Texas”.
The winner
will receive a cash prize of $500, a weekend package including
hotel accommodations, restaurants, attraction tickets for their
choice of either San Antonio or Dallas / Ft. Worth. Also included
is Ripley’s memorabilia, including being featured in a Believe
It or Not! cartoon appearing worldwide. All finalists will receive
cash prizes in addition to other gifts.
This is a
contest that proves Texans have a great sense of humor and are
even able to laugh at themselves.

of Alamo Plaza and Crockett Street. Ripley's Believe
It or Not!® and Louis Tussaud's Plaza Wax Museum®, both family
attractions are open year round. Annual ticket sales are
approximately 400,000. These attractions are very popular
