Description
Pogs were little round pieces of hard cardboard and you used a round metal object called a slammer to hit the pogs, and if any flipped over you can take them and have another turn.

My sis and I had pogs and even made our own, but we never played them at all.

Pogs were banned from my elementary school! It got so big I remember kids raising money for various causes by selling pog holders and fanny packs....kind of funny.

Haha that was big in 5-6th grade for me. I didn't play, I just liked the different little pictures on them :)

Amazing how we found fun in slamming disks on tables! I loved being a kid. Maybe that's why I don't wanna let being a kid go.

I'm an 80's Kid and I do not remember POGS. I do however remember my daughter coming home from kindegarten wanting POGS and Me having no idea what they were. So, I'm pretty sure it's a 90's toy.

I thought it was a 90's thing my 15yo neighbor was obsessed for some reason. Banned at my school. You need to have a banned at school toy section.

Yeah, it was a 90's toy. It was popular when I was in about 5th grade. I was born 1985.

Pogs came from the 90s I remember my elementary school teacher telling us we couldn't bring them to school. I had tons of those I don't know where they went.

Yea, pogs where big in the 90s. I was born in 1984 so I was a 90s kid, and pogs where big when I was a kid.

I still have a tube of pogs, and a metal yin yang one. But yeah, they are from the early to mid 1990s.

We had pogs like heck! We kept them in a folder with sleeves and sometime over the years, it vanished. Hmm...

The Pog Lady used to come by my summer camp here in Shoreline WA and her pogs would take up the entire gymnasium! My favorite was my clear glass unicorn Smasher. We used to gamble in Elementary so we were banned from using them there. Lol! I still have a ton of pogs today! I will upload my picture
