Back in grade school I had a DV888 (the best yoyo of all time /s) fall out of my pocket in a movie theater. It clanged down each and every level of seats in the middle of the movie. Apparently whoever found it was annoyed enough to just take it for themselves. I can’t blame them and at least I didn’t have to see the damage that stunt inflicted on my yoyo.
Imagine if you went down the theater aisle by isle whispering, “excuse me, did anyone find my yoyo…no… do you mind looking under your seats?” Rinse wash repeat. ![]()
I don‘t know what happened to many of my pre 2000 yoyos.
The list includes Brains, Raiders, Powerspins and a Glow Imperial.
i’d say my proyo bumblebee. not sure when or where I lost it. I have moved on to much better yoyos, but that one was important to my evolution early on.
also, lost a tom kuhn no jive or two which i’m still kind of kicking myself over. they were plentiful back in the 90’s, but now much harder to come by at a reasonable price.
Half of a Bapezilla. I had a backpack of loose yos I dragged around through college and eventually dropped at my parent’s house for 8 or 9 years. Went through everything about a year ago and found 1.5 Bapezillas, oh well.
