Did you have a yo-yo when you were a kid ?
I found them a little frustrating ... always getting the string twisted.
Everyone else seemed to be able to do some pretty cool tricks.
I was happy if I could get my yo-yo to come back up to the top.
Oh well..
Happy yo-yo day.
The price of Hive is a little like a yo-yo these days .... buy at the bottom and Power up to earn more Hive from Curation.
If it seems like yo-yos have been around forever, that’s because they have; we’re talking over 2,000 years! Some believe it all started in ancient Greece, but modern yo-yos likely came from the Philippines. In fact, the word “yo-yo” first appeared in a Filipino dictionary in 1860. But they didn’t become popular stateside until the 1930s. Pedro Flores (of Filipino descent) began mass producing yo-yos in 1928. After holding some promotional competitions, he caught the eye of Donald F. Duncan Sr, who thought these yo-yo things were awesome! Duncan bought Flores out, hired him to run the marketing campaigns, and the rest is National Yo-yo Day history.
