    Yes.  They were HUGE in the late 50's.

    Sure.  We had such fun with them.  My mother and aunt could do it too.

    Do you remember how good that thing was for your waistline?  LOL

    I don't think I was too concerned about my waistline at that time.  But it was good exercise for sure.  My girls had them too but they didn't love them like my sister and our friends did.

    I think I was about 8 or 9.  But, I did keep them around when I was a teenager and used it for the waist thing.  I should get one NOW.

    I think my older brother who is five years older used to mess with one but I was too young at the time they were popular.

  • No, I had a skippit. I think that’s the 80’s version of a hula hoop.

  • I've done that.  Its fun.  I love all this shiz. 
    It helps me hone my acrobatic, crime fighting abilities,
    otherwise the capes and boots are all just for show.

  • You should wear the cape and boots while doing all that shizzat. For the show;)

  • Yes. 
    Maybe that's where I learned to move my hips with such fluidity.

    We were rich kids so we had those fancy Shoop Shoop Hula Hoops (a Shoop Shoop Hula Hoop made a sound as it spun). Cheers1

    Ya I cut my shoop shoop hula hoops in half and used them as ribs for a starter plant green house so they became Hoot Hoot Hula Hoops. Cheers!

    I like your mind. You are inventive like me.  Of course, pot makes us inventive too.  Give a hoot hoot for weed too. This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at March 28, 2019 12:26 PM MDT

    Ya but it seems like I only have a one track inventive mind like once I made a self sucking bong out of a electric breast pump. Cheers!
