In 1956, Harold D. Youngman
approached Mickey Mantle about leasing
and operating a Holiday Inn hotel in
Joplin, Missouri. It was agreed that
Mickey would be named the president of
the Mickey Mantle Motel Corp., the
Holiday Inn, and Youngman would be the
vice president. The hotel opened for
business on January 10, 1957.
