Small Screen, Big Splash

A few weeks ago, a Chicago-based television program, 190 North, visited the FUN Inc. factory.

The host interviewed company president Graham Putnam, toured the warehouse and "vomitorium" (the room on the second floor where we make Whoops), and generally stuck his nose in every nook and cranny he found. And why shouldn't he? To those who have never before visited a factory that cranks out magic and novelties assembly line style, a visit to 2100 N. Major Ave. can be a fascinating thing. To those of us who work here on a daily basis it can be, well, a fascinating thing, too.

If you'd like to watch the brief segment about FUN Inc. that aired on 190 North, follow this link:

(We don't yet have the capability to embed the video in the blog, so the curious will have to do a bit more work.)

When you arrive, click on the "Watch 190 N." tab. Then scroll through the videos on the right until you find the one marked "Goofy Manufacturer." All that's left to do is click, watch and enjoy.

If you're a customer and would like a personally-guided tour of the FUN factory, don't hesitate to give us a call when you're in Chicago. We'd love to see you.
