Thumbs up

So, I was talking to my friend today and the subject of POGS was brought up. Now, I don't know about any of you out there, but I remember playing/collecting/getting in trouble for POGS like it was yesterday. We talked about bringing it back, because after all, what the fuck else is there to do during boring down times in class or at home? Drinking, smoking, fucking, etc. are all givens, but this is something on a higher level. These, my friend, are motherfucking POGS.

Please share stories and memories of these wonderful inventions...

I still have all my pogs and will challenge anyone to a match.

Heavy metal slammers, I got'em right here.

I even have an amazing light weight rent-a-cop finisher smaller, it's sweet.

I remember the high rollers (sixth graders) stacking 50 pogs a piece on top of each other and everyone crowding around.

I was the king of pogs. I still am. (at least in the Jefferson Elementary area.)

Bitch. I'll take you down. Heavy metal slammer? That ain't nothing against my saw blade slammer. Or my Apollo 13 slammer...wait a second...scratch that last comment. Anyways, I'll kick your ass. We (my friends) and I are going to try to have tournaments where we can instill all of our favorite things from the past into one.

Pogs, Pez and Porn: The only way to spend the day.

Alright, so porn wasn't a main staple of my childhood. But it's still badass.

Hey, I still have my fucking collection of those official Pogs kept in that Apollo 13 holder that you could get in sections at Hardee's.

I think my Mom threw away my other case though.

And yeah, I remember the good ol days of Pogs on the wall of Jefferson Elem.

Pliedes, I beg to differ about who is the king of the Jefferson area Pog scene. I believe I made a kid in your grade cry in fourth grade because he was trying to be a badass and play for keep with a fourth grader. Hell yeah, that was me.

NOt only do I have two tubes full of Pogs, I have a special binder with sheets full of collectible Pogs. This is a godly idea.

Dude I still play pogs all the time. I just played like a month ago. Unfortunately it was with someone else's pogs and I didn't get to use mine.

I used to have one of those pog-makers where you could just put in a picture of whatever and it would make a pog out of it. Yeah, that was cool as fuck.

My favourite article from the pog days however, is my gold hologram slammer. This puppy is about 1/4" thick and had a bitchin' 3D hologram of a dragon on it.

As a side note, you know what killed the pog revolution? Those god-damned like 4 inch "thick" slammers. Those were about as gay as taking in cock. Another testiment to our culture and it's obsession with excess.

I do what the fuck I want.

POGS were very precious to me. I had the POG boardgame, complete with over 500 POG© Brand POGS. I had the POG, POG Maker, where you could clip pictures out of a magazine and make it into a POG. I've even got a POG album, basically like an album of baseball cards, except it's POGS. This is where I keep my complete set of Michael Jordon POGS. Oh those were the days. I still have my POGS, and maybe someday I'll pull them out for a slam or two.

My favorite memory of POGS came my Freshman year of high school. We had all long since stopped playing POGS, but one day one the bus ride to school, a good friend of mine and I were talking about POGS the whole way to school. We got so fucking hyper and slap happy talking about them, it was hilarious....you know that feeling I'm talking about, when everything just seems funny. Well anyway, as we were walking into the building that day, one of the weirdest coincidences of my life happened. We saw a POG sitting on the ground right outside of WCHS. I picked it up and confirmed our suspicion. We hadn't seen one of these things in like two years, and the very day we start talking about them, BAM, there's on sitting on the ground.

It was pretty strange to say the least.

i remember seein signs in florida when i would go on spring break that would say like 500 pogs for 10 dollars and i would think that was the best deal every all i ever wanted was to buy pogs at that time. i had so many tube fulls didnt know what to do with them but said to say since the move to florida i think they were cleaned up and thrown away, sadly to say but it was diffinatly the game of that time, no one play SNES anymore, your time was dedicated to pogs and pogs alone. those were the days

Then we'd probably get fucked up...

Oh...you mean would you still have to bring the 50 POG minimum? Well, I don't know what you'd be playing with if you didn't bring some, so yeh, you still have to. Feel free to bring liquor though, the more the merrier.
