Jolly Rancher hard candies made their first appearance in
1949 and are still popular among candy lovers today.

The Jolly Rancher Company was founded by Bill and Dorothy
Harmsen from Golden, Colorado, after failing to launch a ice
cream company.

The couple had moved to Colorado from Minnesota in 1942. Bill
was a pilot for Continental Airlines, but he dreamed of owning
his own business.

The beloved Jolly Rancher first made its appearance at the
end of the decade in 1949, Hersheyland reported.

The popular sucking candy joined the Hershey Company
family in 1996.

(FOXNEWS) – A nonprofit group of cold case crime investigators
believes it has located a site in Milwaukee where former Teamsters 
Union President Jimmy Hoffa is buried.

The Case Breakers said a "a dying police sergeant’s scribbled instructions on an ace of spades" playing card helped lead
their yearslong investigation to the old site of Milwaukee County
Stadium in Wisconsin, according to a Wednesday press release.

The alleged burial site is next to the current Milwaukee Brewers
stadium, American Family Field (below) where they believe Hoffa’s
body lies in a spot under where the demolished stadium’s third-
base line previously stood.
