Are you on here? My girl sent me this while I was in the store. I literally missed bumping into you by like 2 minutes. Kinda creepy but I’m curious haha 
. The video quality is horrible for some reason.

This was me. I’m kinda creeped out. I searched yoyo store near Greensburg Pa and found this. I bought a yomega fireball that day. Usually I buy online wanted to find a cool local shop.

I was just getting back into it after a 10 year hiatus. This is funny anyways. Any good local yoyo shops?

Not really supposed to mention competing stores unfortunately, but if you search online for Sam and yo-yos……
You may find a store that is near eerie, pa

Haha wow that’s crazy you just happened to stumble on this over a year later! Where did you find the fireball? The card shop in that plaza?
You know what’s crazy is a few weeks ago I saw someone yoyoing in the parking lot of Barnes and Noble across the road from where I filmed you. I was thinking they may have bought a Duncan XT that they sell in there.
As for local stores with yoyos I don’t think there’s any around the Pittsburgh area. There used to be a toy shop in downtown Pittsburgh that had yoyos but they don’t anymore unfortunately. We probably will be having some yoyo meet ups in the future if your interested in coming out sometime.

I got it from the toy store inside. Can’t remember the name. I’ve bought a Duncan butterfly from that Barnes and Noble before. Over the last year I’ve been playing with more unresponsive yo-yos.

That’s cool. I didn’t realize any stores around here even sold fireballs. I have been wanting to get a new one for awhile but been putting off ordering it online.
Ha no worries, we all start somewhere. I definitely am not the greatest.
I always thought it would be cool if them trading card shop type places would sell yoyos and get a little club going.

Well, that makes 4 of us (including @ice1000) within about 50 miles of each other, time to start a club!

Online seems like the only good place to get a decent variety of yo-yos. If more people showed interest maybe some hobby shops would start carrying them.

I’m in the PGH area (out towards the Intl Airport). I didn’t know Sam’s was in Erie. Interesting!
I’ll have to check downtown at the old time toy store (Randall’s) has any tomorrow when I’m in the office! See if they have anything/a selection.

Yay! Now we have 5 people in a 50 mile radius (actually 7, I forgot about Jimmy and Tommy). @Yooo we need to start a club!

I’m not on Facebook and I don’t know what Discord is… obviously I’m not very tech savvy…

There used to be a yoyo club held at Randals a couple years ago. I think when Ky Zizan stopped working there they stopped getting yoyos but I could be wrong. There’s some videos from throws and brews on YouTube that shows all the yoyos they had for sale at the time a few years ago.

We definitely need to get a meet up going. Now that it’s summer we can meet at a park or anywhere outside.
