Remember POGS? Biggest toy scam of the century. And did anyone actually play them? Did anyone know how to play them?

Beside the point; I have a Mr. Spock slammer.

Oh man. Pogs. A fad that I am embarrassed to ever have been a part of. We should have just stuck with marbles.

I never bought into those things exactly for the reason that I did not know how to play them.

pogs is played by having two smaller kids make a large stack from their collections, and as they pull out their slammers, a third kid, who is much larger, punches both smaller kid and takes their pogs, that's the way I remember it

No Name Kate says:
I had a plastic NASA shuttle filled with Pogs and slammers. You stacked them up and threw the slammer onto the top of them. The goal was to flip the Pog upside down by slamming it. You took turns flipping your stack and whoever flipped them all first won. That's how we played, anyway. Jealous of your Spog. That's short for Spock Pog. Duh.
