As the group researched online for fads of history they came across a new zealand website that enlists crazy fads such as rubik's cube, friendship bracelets ect... The group decided that the most interesting one was pet rocks. More than a million people bought pet rocks, which were really just rocks. They came with a little habitat as well as a booklet of tips on how to handle an excited rock and how to teach it tricks. By 1976 the guy who inveted pet rocks ( Gary Dahl) , had become a millionaire.

The group also found a different article on pet rocks on this website: http://www.tumblerridgenews.com/story.php?id=203245

The group connected the pet rocks trend to King Looie Katz because people mindlessly followed the Pet Rock trend, spending $3.95 for a rock, when everybody has a rock in their backyard. It is like King Looie Katz because the cats followed the King, without thinking for themselves.
