An all American success story. I can't tell how many hours of fun my friends and I had with this simple invention. Not to forget our dogs.

LIES! THE frisbee was invented by a woman who threw a plate at her deadbeat husband’s head. Everyone know s that.

After my first good toss of a frisbee I never went back to coffee can lids.

One of the best MASH episodes where klinger almost “invents” the hula hoop and at the end there is a frisbee moment😂

Frisbees were first flown at Yale and it was pie tins from the Frisbee Pie Company.

Marty McFly invented the Frisbee in Back To The Future III when he launched a Frisbee pie plate at Mad Dog Tannen’s head.

We live across the street from a park that has frisbee golf stations set up. It seems that there is always someone there throwing frisbees to the various baskets set up to catch them. I had no idea it was such a popular sport.

My first frisbee was a Pluto Platter.

As a young boy in a neighborhood of kids, we used the top of a coffee can to spin and throw. I had never heard the word "frisbee" until years later.

Nothing like the 165-175 gram models - lots of fun. I once had a newer one crack when it hit the ground, I sent it back to Wham-o and said send me a new one, which they did.
