Where’s the Fun From? – Who Invented Uno?

BY Tim Walsh     October 6, 2020 Filed to: Read, Watch, Listen

In the latest installment of my YouTube series, Where’s the Fun From?, I tell the story of how a Cincinnati barber Merle Robbins and his son Ray designed one of the most popular games in the world, Uno!

Author, documentary filmmaker, and toy industry veteran Tim Walsh recently founded a new game company called Roo Games. Additional Where’s the Fun From? episodes are available on his Seize the Play YouTube channel.
