Pogs

Remember Pogs? The mere mention of them will either be met with utter confusion or pure nostalgic joy.

Pogs were arguably the biggest fad of all time, but if you were a kid in the period of 1993-1997, then you most likely had your own collection of these things (unless of course, you’re Morgan living in Cornwall, apparently).
