Fights in the playground, swizzed out of pocket money, Pogs were the currency of the 90′s playground. Players would gamble their cardboard discs to try and win a more valuable addition to their collection. As competitive and addictive as football card trading, Pogs were banned in many schools after fall-outs and tears relating to the game.
Players would take turns to throw a heavy plastic disc at a stack of cardboard Pogs and would then keep the Pogs that flipped upside down. Once the stack had diminished, the player with the most Pogs would win. Sometimes people would keep the spoils of their game and thus many schools banned Pogs as a form of gambling.
Brilliant – we used to get put on “the wall” for playing pogs, out of boredom and protest we started a stint of scraping the heads off our star wars figures on the said wall. Mr Trelor was not a happy head teacher and did not appreciate the plastic graffiti – all stemming from pogs!
i would like to know if you can still get the pog machine thank you
