The hula hoop was around before 1963, so what are they celebrating.

Don’t try that today. You’ll throw your hip out so bad and probably need a replacement. Somehow I don’t think Freepers will make it past the panel with so much as a runny nose. I ain’t joking.

They probably couldn’t start the company today.

The Hula Hoop craze of the summer of 1958 hit West Whittier, Calif. hard. Everyone on our block soon owned one.

Thank God that is not a pic of the Wookie doing the Hula Hoop. Hate to see that big butt gyrating.
That brings back fond memories of me as a child doing that and was darn good at it. I think it would be a great weight loss exercise now =)

She was excellent! But I can’t relate to those *yeti* boots. :0

I'm to be buried with my hula-hopp. It's in my will.
