Have you ever wondered where the blanket toss derived from? Back in the day, people would use the blankets (made of seal fur) to toss someone up in the air to see long distances, or if there were trees in the way. Today, the Blanket Toss has become a big part of the Native Youth Olympics to honor the high school seniors!! | KNBA 90.3 FM
