National YO-YO Day

On June 6, the world celebrates national YO-YO Day! The YO-YO toy is one of the most interesting inventions of mankind. She's been with us for hundreds, even thousands of years. YO-YO was a great weapon, but now it's turned into a great toy.
Although, recently, the popularity of YO-YO has dropped somewhat, but we all know that history likes to repeat itself, and I am sure that collecting YO-YO will not "go away for centuries," and the ability to make various feints with this toy will also attract attention. Oh, and as a hobby, YO–YO management is a very fun activity!
So why don't we "shake things up" at least one day a year by doing various yo-yo spin-offs? I assure you, it's just as much fun!
The origin of the Yo-Yo is very difficult to prove. This toy is one of those things that manage to appear at different points in almost unrelated worlds, at approximately the same time.
Many believe that YO-YO originated from China, from about 500-1000 BC. However, there is evidence that they first appeared and were used in Ancient Greece even earlier than that time.
I think the origin of YO-YO will remain a mystery to us. However, it doesn't matter, because the main thing is that now this toy is truly international and belongs to everyone.
Actually, June 6th is the birthday of Donald F. Duncan Sr., and it is on this day that national YO-YO Day is celebrated. He's the one who made "Yo-Yo Duncan" in the early 1900s.
This Yo-Yo has become a sought-after toy. So in demand that they dispersed like ice cream on the beach at a temperature in the shade of + 35 Celsius. And by the 1960s, it had become so popular that people were making their careers out of playing YO-YO.
The year of YO-YO
The general Yo-Yo fever somehow disappeared by itself by the end of the 1960s and 70s. But let's go back a little bit, to 1962.
This year, Duncan's Yo-Yo sponsored the first competition at the Disneyland Hotel in Los Angeles, California. The winning prize was $5,000, which was awarded to Pat Brown. After that, Yo-Yo competitions became a hit, especially among children and teenagers, that yo-yo teams began to be sponsored by large companies such as Coca-Cola. Such support helped the teams travel all over the country and show their skills.
Yo-yos are still popular. Of course, it no longer has the same status as it used to have, but World Championships with substantial cash prizes are held anyway. So, find your Yo-yo, dust it off, and let's get it back to its former popularity! Isn't it fun?
