For you poor children that don't remember the craze:
Pogs were the greatest little cardboard disks you'd collect and use to play (in hindsight) absolutely retarded games with. In fact, they were such a huge fad that Simpsons made a reference to them when Milhouse showed off his "Alf" collectable pogs he bought for the $5 he sold his soul for. And for those of you that don't know Alf... well... that's an entirely different thread
