I was a little old for the pogs, and I was already in college by the time Magic came along. Not that I didn't have buddies who were into it. But I was too cool and too broke for anything other than the half-dozen role playing games I was already involved in.
There was one funny, cyclical fad at my school: yo-yos. Every four years or so yo-yos got really big, and everyone had to have one. My school even made and sold yo-yos with the school crest on it one year. I think I have one around here somewhere....
Hacky-sack was big in high school. The Coolest Teacher in School was into it too, and he'd come out and play with us. He was a black-belt in karate, so he'd do some wild-ass stuff with a sack.
