JUNE 6TH: NATIONAL YO-YO DAY
Donald F. Duncan had more to celebrate about his life than an amazing name; he helped popularize the Yo-Yo. Though technically invented by a man named Pedro Flores in the late 1920’s, the Yo-Yo didn’t hit the mainstream until an entrepreneurial Duncan purchased Flores’ Yo-Yo Toy Company, mass-produced this circular piece of plastic and string, and introduced it to the world. June 6th is believed to be Duncan’s birthday
