The Frisbie Baking Company
(1871-1958) of Bridgeport,
Connecticut, made pies that were
sold to many New England
colleges. Hungry college students
soon discovered that the empty
pie tins could be tossed and
caught, providing endless hours
of game and sport. Many
colleges have claimed to be the
home of 'he who was first to
fling.'

Yale College has even argued that in
1820, a Yale undergraduate named
Elihu Frisbie grabbed a passing
collection tray from the chapel and
flung it out into the campus, thereby
becoming the true inventor of the
Frisbie and winning glory for Yale.
That tale is unlikely to be true since
the words 'Frisbie's Pies' was
embossed in all the original pie tins
and from the word 'Frisbie' was
coined the common name for the toy.


In 1948, a Los Angeles building inspector
named Walter Frederick Morrison and his
partner Warren Franscioni invented a plastic
version of the Frisbie that could fly further
and with better accuracy than a tin pie plate.
Morrison (after his split with Franscioni)
produced a plastic Frisbie called the Pluto
Platter, to cash in on the growing popularity
of UFOs with the American public. The
Pluto Platter has become the basic design
for all Frisbies.

The word 'Frisbee' is pronounced the same as the
word 'Frisbie'. Rich Knerr (Wham-O) was in
search of a catchy new name to help increase sales,
after hearing about the original use of the terms
'Frisbie' and 'Frisbie-ing'. He borrowed from the
two words to create the registered trademark
Frisbee ®. Sales soared for the toy, due to WhamO's clever marketing of Frisbee playing as a new
sport.

In 1967, high school students in Maplewood,
New Jersey, invented Ultimate Frisbee, a
recognized sport that is a cross between football,
soccer and basketball. Ten years later, a form of
Frisbee golf was introduced, complete with
professional playing courses and associations.


Another Great Frisbee Moment: In
1968, the U.S. Navy spends almost
$400,000 to study Frisbees in wind
tunnels, following their flights with
computers and cameras, and
building a special Frisbee-launching
machine on top of a Utah cliff to
test a prototype flare launcher.
Today the fifty year old Frisbee® is
owned by Mattel Toy Manufacturers,
only one of at least sixty manufacturers
of flying discs. Wham-O sold over one
hundred million units before the selling
the toy to Mattel
paintball
May
1981
Paintball began in New Hampshire. The principal creators were
Bob Gurnsey, a sporting goods retailer; Hayes Noel, a
stockbroker, and Charles Gaines, a writer.
June 27, 1981
The first game played: 12 players competing against each other
with Nel-spot 007s pistols. The game was capture the flag. The
winner captured all flags without firing a shot.
1992-1993
NPPL (National Professional Paintball League) was founded
and the NPPL Pro-Am Series started with sites around the US.
combine the game of capture the flag with chess,
mix in hide 'n' seek and add a large dose of
adrenaline. Paintball is challenging and fast-paced.
As few as two or as many as eighty can play. The
basic game has two teams, each with its own flag
station and matching color armbands. Each team
starts at its own flag station. A starting signal is
given and each team tries to reach the other team's
station, grab the flag and race back to its station.
When a player gets tagged -- hit by a paintball -he/she is out of the game. If a player is carrying a
flag when tagged, he/she must drop the flag at
that spot, then leave the game.
