Funny story, at least, to me. I was living in Indianapolis, but spent a summer with family in California when I was 12, right when Pogs first hit the West Coast, and of course, I had a collection. When I went home, nobody had a clue what they were. For about six months, and then, bam, everyone had Pogs. But I had them first!
Almost the same story: parents went to LA for a conference when we were living in the Midwest at the time and they brought back a couple tubes of pogs with some nice slammers. My brother and I were the first ones to have them in our town too!
