I wanted to send a shout out to the guy at FAO Swartz who asked me if I wanted to try to play with a yoyo. Had a good laugh when I showed him my yoyoexpert contest tee and said “I already do!”. Nice to see someone out there supporting the hobby.

I went to NYC on a school trip and the only place I didn’t visit was Fao Swartz. I spent the entire trip looking for yoyos and _walked right past the toy store_

I live in the five boroughs (granted an hour+ out from Manhattan) and I would never had guessed they sold throws! @SuperSurge what kind of selection did they have?

I bought a Duncan Mosquito there back in probably 2007. I recall them having multiple options of Duncans back then.
