RIP: Walter Fredrick Morrison, the inventor of the Frisbee, passed away at his home in Monroe, Utah, on Tuesday. He was 90.
Fun Frisbee Fact: Originally called the “Pluto Platter,” Morrison sold the production rights in 1957 to the legendary Wham-O toy company, which gave the plastic flying disc its iconic name.

You will be missed Walt.
