Weird Collections?

[Solidus]

Does anyone remember "pogs"? Those round pieces of cardboard crap, that were the rage back in the early 90s. I collected a ton of those back in the day.

I used to collect Zippo lighters..... I was never a smoker or anything. I just loved the way they looked and felt

I used to collect movie and concert tickets. The first one was from Star Wars back in 1977. Even though it doesn't say Star Wars anywhere on the stub, I kept it. My first concert ticket was from The Stones 1981 tour.

I have been collecting movie stubs for about 5 years and when I get my own place I plan on making a bar with the stubs and putting a piece of plexi-glass over them.

That would be cool. I have seen people do that with baseball cards.

strangely enough, I put all my movie stubs in my wallet. I looked through them one day & it goes as far back as episode 1

I used to collect matchbooks from restaurants or bars I ate at, but these are hard to get now since most places don't have them any more.

I've since moved on to collecting bottle caps from each unique beer I've had. I haven't counted in awhile, but I think I have over 150. I need to dig them out from my recent move and try to take a picture of them. I haven't thought of a way to display them yet either.
