Grand Rapids' Laughfest kicks off this Thursday and runs through Sunday, March 20th.  Tickets can be purchased through Ticketmaster outlets, 800-745-3000 or by going to their website at www.ticketmaster.com.

Last week, Leno brought national attention to our happy event when he talked with Betty White about her upcoming appearance on Tuesday the 15th.

I'll have tickets to giveaway throughout the week.  Listen to Channel 957 between 10a-3p for your opportunity to win yours!
