Anyone remember these? I got to feeling a bit nostalgic the other day when I came across my old collection of these. Its been years since I even thought about these but I still remember playing with these.

I'm not surprised you missed it Abraxas it was only popular at least in my area for about a year in the mid 90s. It was followed by the dreaded Pokemon craze. It was just a legal form of gambling for children. ;D
What you would do is everyone playing would put in so many pogs and then they would be stacked together, when that was done each person would take turns trying to flip the pogs over by using a slammer to take down the stack. If you were able to flip any over then you would get to keep those. And so forth and so on.

I'm pretty sure that's how I'd think of them if they came out today. I guess its the difference between being 25 and being 11. ;D

Hahaha, yes I remember these. I had em when I was in elementary school. I forget the year it was popular but previous posters are correct in saying it was quite short. What a waste of money for tiny cardboard circles but we did get some fun out of it as dumb kids, hehe. Definately nostalgic!
