#pogsandslammers

Like with anything that was a fad of my shared childhood. POGS come to mind first. The game of stacking and smacking.

Apparently their was even a World POG Federation. But that's not what this review is about. This one simply about the POGS themselves.

Theses little round hunks of cardboard. Meant either instant popularity or instant fights. Depending on the kid you were. As for me it went both ways. I remember sneaking mine to school and using them to get other things from kids. Such as lunch money or comic books. I used them like currency. Schools quickly took notice that kids were fighting and acting stupid over these things.

But hey they were a great way to advertise to young consumers. Nowadays it's all about the ADS and viewer ship. Back in our day it was simple slap the logo onto something a child consumer would scream for.

But enough rambling. I'll get to my scoring and the end of my mini review here in a bit.

Nostalgic Feels: A

Likely Hood Of Being Worth Anything: F

Fun: A

Downsides: Were lost easily and lost friends like no tomorrow. But hey at least you got to rep your favorite things back in the day.
