Ha! I suppose I could’ve tried spinning my daughter around my head, but I don’t think my wife would’ve liked it!

Here are some tricks I can do with my yoyo costume:

Sleeper  
Walk the Dog  
Laceration  
Around the World (well, me running around in a circle)  
And that cool un-named-yet-highly-difficult trick that was in the picture

I lost the fricking power and wasn’t able to enter. I’m using McDonald’s wifi. Halloween has been rescheduled to this Saturday in Farmington. Don’t have school for a week.

Darn, I missed it! I had an amazing costume too, would have done a simple “Trapeze”, would have been a very suitable trick. Not to mention, a classic toy playing with…a classic toy 🙂

All of the activity with my amusement park interests and closing of the amusement park season and their Halloween Haunt, and Halloween yesterday, I unfortunately forgot about hitting up YYE the past couple days.

If you wonder, I made the box myself 🙂

All this prank took was me snooping around a photo bin and then thinking “Time to fool some suckas’” and then pressing the ‘post’ button. Planned in a few seconds yet well executed.

Darn indeed Mr. Angry Gumball, there is no doubt you would certainly have been in contention. That is one awesome costume!

Winners are out. I like how the winner didn’t even have a real spinning yoyo in the pic. (was a great pic tho). I didn’t enter the contest im just observing this.

Not really sure why one of Runner up, runner ups wasn’t even wearing a costume and your couldnt see the yoyo cause the picture was blurry. But who asked my opinion?

The Runner-runner up you speak of was wearing a costume…

He was NES - yo-yo playing kid from Super Smash Brothers. :wink:
