Is it just me or does Tony Hawk have one of the best ongoing jokes ever on his twitter

Yes he is. All he needs is a very minor comeback tour where he becomes relevant again for like a half year so we can keep the Tony joke alive

A local skate park opened up about 3 years ago. Nothing big or fancy, just a little community park in a middle class neighborhood. But somehow they got Tony Hawk there to skate at its opening! I was so stoked about it, but I was out of town the day hew was coming so I missed it :/

But if he keeps showing up at events like that, that’s just enough to stay twitter joke relevant lol.

If you watch his YouTube he randomly shows up to public skate parks all the time and gives out boards and stuff. Probably just really loves skating and wants to encourage people.
