Anyone here play or used to play Magic the Gathering? If so, tell me how you got started.

As for me; I started in the beginning of '95 and the Ice Age rush had began. I hung out with my friend who lived down the street and he used to give me a magic card everytime I walked him home (It does sound a bit wierd, but if you knew the people who lived near us, it was pretty freaky at night) Anyway, I had no idea what these cards were for so I just took em cuz they looked cool. Soon after I got like 20 some odd cards he started to teach me how to play. At first I really had no money to buy cards and had little interest, then I went to a summer camp and so many people played there having tournaments and stuff, I was just watching people play and was like, I have these cards! So I figured out where to buy them, bought a few packs and starter decks and got into it, I kinda taught myself in a way. You wouldn't believe how bad I feel today that I was ripped off back then, that's why I became nice to people learning the game. I quit about a year and a half ago.
