Pogs is a game that was popular in a perio known as the "Pog Wash" from the early to mid 1990s. The word "pog" also refers to the discs used to play the game. The name originates from POG, a brand of juice made from passionfruit, orange and guava; the use of the POG bottle caps to play the game pre-dated the game's commercialization. The game of pogs originated in Hawaii in the 1920s, and returned to popularity when the Canada Games Company reintroduced them to the public in the 1990s.
