Uncle Fun Delivers on Laughs

North Side business specializes in gag gifts

Who doesn't love a good old whoopee cushion joke? If that old school humor is your idea of a good time, then there's a North Side store just for you.

Uncle Fun (1338 Belmont Ave.) has been around for more than 15 years.

The business specializes in gag gifts, novelties and vintage toys.

"If you're in a bad mood and you come to Uncle Fun, give yourself a little time and you'll leave happy," manager Alicia Hermanny said.

The owner literally scours the world looking for great gag merchandise.

And the best part of the deal? You won't break the bank.

"It's pretty affordable here. Everything is under $10. If you give your kids $5 it's like a fortune because they can get just about anything in the store," Hermanny said.

Celebrities like Pee Wee Herman have checked out Uncle Fun over the years.

It just goes to show, no matter what generation you belong to, fart jokes never get old.
