I had a legendary pog collection, which I kept on evolving. I had a rubber "big foot" slammer that made me win every time. The best of the best pogs were only kept. The most pristine, foil ones. Then, one day my tube of pogs were thrown away by my mom thinking they were "trash". Would have been worth millions today..

Did anyone ever play with Bad Boy pogs? They were cut differently and had a little number on them so you could collect them all. My cousin had one of those pog folders. Man that was so cool; I never had one though because I was a maverick and was willing to gamble even my most precious pogs because I had the perfect slams. I used the most simple slammer, a round coppery lookin disc, super plain, but like the Holy Grail of pogs I would slam that fucker down and could turn over an entire 10stack every time.

Unironically what are pogs, they were before my time and I have somehow escaped hearing or learning about what they are since I was born. I literally just assume it's like that weird ball and caltrop game.

If they come back it will be something impossibly stupid like NFT pogs with RFID tags in them.

We had Tazos over here, which came free in specially marked bags of chips, fritos and doritos. The original wave had the Looney Tunes, then they did one for Tiny Toons, and so on. I also cried over them in fourth grade when I felt I was hot poo poo at playing them, only to have the first kid I played against win most of my collection so far. I have some Pokémon and Dragon Ball ones stored somewhere. This one was laying around for no reason, having escaped my categorization and storage efforts:

They started as the caps to a beverage in hawaii, papaya orange guava iirc, or POG Supposedly, some kids invented a game where you took the caps from bottles of that stuff and stacked them up, then used a special heavier pog or “slammer” to try to hit the stack and flip them all so they land face-up. You keep face up pogs from your turn off to one side as your winnings and keep replenishing the stack from either a communal pool or you alternate with your opponent until all the pogs have been won It had regional variations but somehow went nationwide for a few months to a year in… 1994? I think? The caps were just cardboard circles with printed designs so super cheap to make and very customizable, but it felt for a little while like a new type of baseball cards to collect or something before the bottom fell out of the fad

Hold on I don't think that's a Pog. That's something else that I don't remember what. You were supposed to clip them together I think? You got them in chip packets.

That is absolutely not a pog and is NOT legal for play in World POG Federation events
