I’m in this comment and I don’t like it.

Hence why I’m trying to start something local.

The Philly one is semi defunct but I want to start one back up I’ll prolly wait for spring and nice weather and pick a park, but for sure come to tiki tiki we have people like Tyler severance, Blaise Becker, Kira morrow, very occasionally Colin beckford and Nathan Joseph, plus a whole lot of locals and others you may not have heard of but are amazing players and people

Plus I always bring some protos to club with me so bonus fun!!

Washington scene was indeed dead before me and two others worked hard to rally the troops and now our biggest meet had almost 30 people 🥹 its definitely possible to build a scene with consistency!  
Post here, on Facebook, IG, and discord.

New plan:  
Try and get a celeb to colab with a yoyoer  
The celeb tells their friends  
Their friends yoyo  
Profit  
Ooooooor an easy way  
Get tickets to an nba game for seats near the players so u can meet them  
Show them ur yoyo  
Make a lil tiktok/short with them  
Give them a yoyo  
Profit  
But in order to get in an nba game we have to get 2000$  
Dont u have like 50 yoyos that cost around 50$ though? Y cant u get the tickets urself then?  
Its a big gamble cus u dont exactly know if they will see u  
OOOOR!  
Have gentry do it for us  
Profit 💰🤑  
OOOOOOOOOOOR!!  
Make cringy videos for everyone to see  
Profit 💰🤑💵

Woodbury, NJ isn’t much further and we have club every other week with well established venue but if I start up something in Philly proper I’ll post here for sure!
