The Story of a Flying Disk

The idea of throwing around a flat flying disk goes all the way back to the discus in ancient greece. The modern incarnation, we can look to 19 37. A 17 year old named walter fred morrison and his girl friend were playing a game of ketch with the lid from a popcorn tin. He found that by adding a sloped edge, his disks would fly better and stay in the air longer too. To day, that same slope is found on all official frisbi's and is still known as morrisons slope in fred's honor.
