Yo-Yo 'Whiz' Punks TV Stations

If someone calling himself Kenny Strasser turns up on your local TV station's happy-talk morning news, pay attention: His yo-yo routine is about to fall to pieces. "K-Strass" punked four Wisconsin stations before taking his show to Missouri, where "he did some really lame things" on the air, the program director of a station in St. Joseph tells the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel. "He hit himself in the face and the groin with his yo-yo."

The videos above tell some of Strasser's story, which changes depending on where he is. He does appear to have some yo-yo skills, but sometimes uses his buzzing phone as an excuse to stop performing. He may or may not be associated with a comedy website, may or may not be having some sort of breakdown, and may not may not really be sorry. Your move, Joaquin Phoenix.
