Crappy Arcade Prizes #2: Yo-Yo

GIGANTIC

 

The Yo-Yo

 

"cost": 30-50 tickets (waaaaay to much)

 

Ok first off, i know, yo-yo's are fun. They're a great toy and have been around for ages, and if you can do any of the "trick" that a yo-yo is capable of; you're a God among men.

 

thats with a real yo-yo. Duncan, Butterflys, etc. made of wood, with a good thick string.

 

this is not one of those.

 

first off i should point out i DID NOT cut the string short on this. thats exactly how it came. i did some research and apparently a yo-yo's string length are supposed to be the "distance from your bellybutton to the ground"

 

im 6"3 and this aint cuttin it, i cant even imagine anyone ever having fun with this.

 

you're not gonna do the Eiffel Tower, attempting the loop-to-loop is clearly a joke, and you damn sure can forget walking the dog.

 

yes, yo-yos are great.

 

Arcade Prize yo-yos are a no-no.

 

Fun Rating: 1.5 out of 5 tickets (due to string length and weight of the cheap plastic)
