    History

    In 1954, Kennywood in partnership with new NBC TV affiliate WJPB (now WDTV) used the television show Happy's Party (sometimes referenced as Ida Mae & Happy in articles) to name the "mystery ride". Interestingly, Kennywood would again use this strategy with a new Vekoma Boomerang coaster at Lake Compounce in the 1990s, resulting in an identical name for that coaster.
