Did you know the Tilt-a-Whirl was invented in Minnesota and debuted at the Minnesota State Fair 100 years ago? 

This well-known ride with bright spinning cars was invented in Faribault, MN in 1926 and debuted at the State Fair the same year for just 15-cents a ride. 

The Tilt-A-Whirl was so successful that a factory was built in 1927 and the iconic ride is still popular at fairs across the country. The Sellner Manufacturing Company produced Tilt-A-Whirls in Faribault until 2011 when it was sold. Find the ride in the Kidway to celebrate its 100th anniversary before the fair ends!
