So I’ve been on vacation on California for two weeks now and today we decided to take a trip to San Francisco. While my group was walking around the pier (a local tourist attraction) I saw something orange flashing out of the corner of my eye! As it turns out, I wasn’t the only thrower there! I approached her and we immediately started talking about random yoyo stuff. I traded my Battosai for her Rockstar and threw a few tricks around. After a couple minutes we had to leave, but that moment made my whole day! So has anyone ever met another yoyoer by random occurrence? This is the first time that it’s happened to me and I wonder if it’s common. 🙂 ---

> [@zerrubabbel](#): > > and now i feel lonely 😢 Don’t feel lonely. I had to teach my kids so I wouldn’t throw alone. I’d teach my dogs, but no thumbs makes it a bit hard to throw. ---

During lunch when I first started in March, I saw a kid yoyoing so I asked what yoyo it was and it was a DV888. That kid juggles too as I found out this school year. ---

I’ve ran into 2 different people at bars yoyoing in my city, and maybe 3 people out of town at a couple edm shows I’ve been to. I don’t think I’m very good, but was better than everybody I met, til one guy didnt have a yoyo with him and borrowed mine and totally blew me away, then he pulls out his phone and shows me the 9 modded yoyos hes got for sale at home. ---

When I was at a swim meet one of the swimmers on the other team said she yoyoed too but didn’t have her yoyo with her. She said she couldn’t bind so she didn’t want to try my dv888. Also I go to a weekly yoyo club. ---

Well, I’m not sure if this counts but I was at a Pokemon tournament (nerdy, I know) and I saw some guys in the back with some yoyos they were pretty cool, one of them had a Yuuksta. My friend recently found out that one of the guys was Clint Armstrong! Cool right? ---
