WHAM-O! Creator Dies, But Legacy Lives On

Posted by Sarah Verdone

 

Pay homage to the late great Richard Knerr, by tossing Frisbees and shaking your groove thing in a Hula Hoop. Knerr was the co-founder of Wham-O and co-inventor of these and many other iconic toys (Slip 'N Slide, Silly String, and SuperBalls, to name a few) that changed the face of American fun. Good times, good times. Thanks, Richard! Get 'em all at Toy&Game Warehouse

p.s. This would be the perfect time to rent the Coen brothers's totally underrated 1994 film, The Hudsucker Proxy. It's got a beautiful scene starring Hula Hoops.
