Man does this thread bring back memories...
I remember pogs and Magic the Gathering. I didn't do them at the time, but sorta got into both, years after the initial fad. Magic is still decently popular around here, though pogs have all but disappeared...
And for some reason, in elementary and middle school, there were different "cool" ways of wearing a backpack. At first, just having one strap around the shoulder was cool, and then later having both straps on was cool, and then it went back to one strap, etc. Now, messenger bags are getting pretty popular.
For me, the poppers, yo-yos, and light-up shoes came and went pretty quick, like within two weeks.
Trapper Keepers completely rocked though, i think that one went on until early on in middle school. I never had one though, and I remember being jealous of all the kids who had them, I really don't know why.
Kickball was the really popular sport at my school, the tetherball poles were always abandoned, though I loved tetherball.
