The "Bull Buster"

Here's a card I found in my Dad's box of old stuff. It almost got thrown out.


Rick Buckner (Bay City Ballers 1969-73) was dubbed the "Bull Buster" after he hit a grand slam against the Balzac Bulls in 1973 to win the regional championship.
He was drafted into the Majors by the Huston Astros the following year but died before he played one game after he ate a styrofoam muffin by mistake.

I didn't make another one but I did manage to find a mint condition card.

Take me out to the ball game

These cards are based off a couple different images that popped up when you google search "70s baseball cards"... Like B-Man, I don't follow the sport, so I created my own team.

Here are my baseball cards. "The Hams" is the best team (n)ever created.

First up is Ron Hitman:

I'd imagine Ron being like Fonzie. Every man wants to be him and every woman wants to be with him. He'd often spout out popular catchphrases that would end up on t-shirts and lunch boxes.

Second up is Will Wild:

I'd imagine Will Wild being a bad mother -- (shut your mouth!). He would be the cause of, and solution too, all baseball related riots. He also likes knitting.

Some Baseball Dude

Yeah, I don't follow baseball so I don't know who's good or not. I decided to go with this dude because he was one of the first few images that popped up when I typed in '1970s baseball cards'. I tried to make it look as close as I could to a 70s era baseball card. By the way here's the original card:
