The 1996 Elmo craze resulted in herds of parents stampeding to Toys R Us, Walmart, and other toy stores to get a their hands on a Tickle Me Elmo. It was even reported that one customer paid over a thousand dollars for the toy and a toy store employee sustained a broken rib from being trampled by people rushing into the store to get one. Since then, several editions have come out but none was ever as popular as the original 1996 Tickle Me Elmo.
