POGS!!!

But i remember those back in 1994-1995 which I was in 4th and 5th grade. They were the GAME to play indoors, until the school district decided to ban them and Yo-Yos.

The true measure of a kid was his/her slammer, that made me a beast!

My slammer had a Ying yang on it, which made it work better somehow.

Over this side of the pond (UK) we had things called Tazos, too. They came free with a brand of crisps - Walkers. I think I've still got some of them. They differed from Poggs in that they had small incisions in the side at regular intervals, meaning they could be used to build things.

I had a metal slammer! And a pink ranger pog. I'll tell you what, friendships were ruined when you played for keeps!

Yea thats why they banned them from the school. We would go hold secret underground pog matches inside the big tire in the sandpit.

I still have an original set with the case and an "o.j. in the slammer". I'll post pics if anyone wants to see.

They ended up getting banned in my school as they considered playing pogs as gambling.

All currency should be replaced with Pogs. Ten dollar bills and higher would be slammers. It would finally give us an excuse to eliminate the penny, all money could easily be carried in those cool green tubes, and gambling would change forever.

Pogs went out of style in 94 at the latest.

whats middle school? Is it something else? I did primary school(jk-grade8) then high school(9-12). im not sure what this middle school is

[–]Milstar 0 points1 point ago

In America it's generally around 6-8 or 7-8. And it is just that the school you go to between Elementary and High School.

[–]smardalek 0 points1 point ago

To be even more confusing, I went to an Elementary, Intermediate, Middle, and then High school. And then they decided that was too complicated and abandoned the Elementary school.

What in the actual fuckness.
