 * The Fad's of the 70's **

Streakers were the wild people who took off all their clothes and ran naked and wild. they would run whereever there was a crowd, like graduations, partys, stores, or that was the fad of summer in 1974. It all started because of a rock song called the Streak by Ray Stevens. The streakers were well known, and yes would get in troble for the act of streaking. The most famous striker was a 33 year old, who did the streak the best. ||  ||   || VIDEO media type="youtube" key="FLHftISLNHE" height="349" width="425" ||

Just like the name says, it was a rock. The rock had no living ability at all, but teens carried them around in their box and it was their pet rock. You could get the rock with his manual in a cardboard box designed to look like a pet carrying case and they began selling them at $3.95 each. ||

Then you would put your finger in the ring and goal was to gently pull up and by doing that youd get them clacking, and once you have gotten the hang of it then you could do it faster and faster with the balls hitting above and below.
