Variations of the hoola hoop have been around for centuries. But the first children's toy was patented and marketed on March 5, 1963.
Over the last 50 years, the hoop has been a beloved pastime, form of exercise and even a competitive sport. WMBD decided to have a little fun with the big birthday and put some of its employees to the test.
