If you haven’t caught on by now that Rob DiQuattro loves himself some video games, then watch this, then check out a few of his past BMX videos and you’ll definitely understand. Here’s his latest which is a tribute to his late dog, Yogi, who recently passed away. This is filled with amazing riding and plenty of video game references and themes from start to finish. Excellent watch from start to finish! Enjoy!
“One day, I realized that the happiness and joy I have for video games is not dependent upon me playing them. That is to say, if I was unable to play video games anymore, the memories would not vanish alongside. Although perhaps trivial, this helped me realize certain love can never be taken. I feel that same way about Yogi. This video serves to honor the memory of one of the greatest energies I have ever known. I will always love you Yogi.
Thank you to everyone involved. From the thumbnail, to the snes label image, everyone who filmed, drove, or helped take the stress of everyday life away. This video wouldn’t exist without all of you.”
