What was the name of.........?
For us older dudes.
What was the name of a toy that I had in grade school, early-mid seventies? It was like a big yo-yo that was red or yellow and could expand. It functioned like a yo-yo, but could expand to a much larger size . It has a large string, almost a rope, and fabulous tricks could be performed after learning. The Valium, Vicodin and vodka cocktail has destroyed my memory at 53 years of age. Tried a google search to no avail. Tried dousing myself in anti-freeze and climbing a flaming AIDS tree but that didn’t help. My blinker fluid and fetzer valves are ok. Even tried gauze pads and Quaker State but no help. Any and all answers appreciated . TIA. |

Something tells me you were tripping on acid while playing with clackers and dreamed up this thing.

I never had those knocker balls (heh) as a kid, but this was a big flexible, expandable yo-yo thing. Serious.
