Great way to spend a couple hours indoors. Numerous interesting rooms that had comedy throughout history. Props, outfits, videos. Pretty neat!

The most interactive compendium of comics EVER! The most multimedia usage I've been a participant. We stayed for a full 5 hours. From setting up our own profile at the beginning to a delicious libation and doing our own stand-up at the end, I'm running out of superlatives to write. I did go in at the very beginning saying to my wife, daughter and son-in-law, "I better laugh." Well just the first 20 minutes, I must have heartily laughed 20 times. You must visit the Comedy Center, truly a destination of laughs. You can use that too - "Destination of Laughs"

If you have the opportunity to go to Jamestown, NY, you must plan a visit to the National Comedy Museum! There are multiple interactive exhibits and one can spend a few hours to an entire day examining displays, videos, and learning about how comedians are connected to one another. Dee greeted us and helped us to understand the layout. Jeff helped us to get the most out of our experiences by offering suggestions. We jumped in to many experiences and received the photo and video we made by email by the end of our visit. We helped wrap candy on a conveyor like Lucille Ball and so can you! What a fun filled day! The snack bar has beverages, light snacks, sandwiches and chips. One can also exit for lunch and return. Be sure to check their schedule and purchase your entry ticket on their website.
