In Portal, Hoopy the Hoop was a hoop fallen from the sky among the wreckage of GLaDOS at the end of the game. Hoopy landed on the Aperture Science parking lot in front of Chell just before being dragged off by the Party Escort Bot.
As stated in an interview, "Opening The Portal: Exploring The Game's Development", with Valve, they never expected "The Cake is a Lie" would become such a huge hit. They expected, if anything, that Hoopy the Hoop would become the meme derived from Portal. Erik Wolpaw explains, "We thought we should have a warehouse full of Hoopy t-shirts and mugs and posters…we would watch that hoop roll by over and over again. That was the part of the game we were most proud of, and nobody cared."
Appearances
Portal
Hoopy the Hoop rolls across the screen at the end of the game as Chell lays outside the Aperture Science facility.
Portal 2
Hoopy is known to appear in a few places within Portal 2. His earlier known appearance is in Her Chamber, where he lays slightly to the left of what could be described as GLaDOS' head; his second known appearance is underneath a floor panel in Test Chamber 2. He makes his third known appearence behind a desk in Rattmann's den in Test Chamber 6; this is the same den as referred to by the Final Transmission achievement.
