X Games, wintersports in general, most Olympic Sports, Curling, Aussie rules football (Go Lions). Those are a few for sure, I wish more European hockey sets were available here, would love some KHL, Swedish stuff, lots of good players stay in Europe.

Someday my cards may double in value and then be worth half of what I paid for them.

I was going to say Monster Jam or IndyCar, but I have to go with Ranfordfan and the X-Games. I would totally buy X-Games cards (winter or summer sports)! Every time I watch X-Games events, I wonder why no one has made cards of them yet.

Volleyball and curling, but, perhaps embarassingly, I'm still trying to figure out what #5 of the "big 5" is....
Nope, can't find the fifth. Just looked at the cards listed stats here, and there's a clear 4, but what's fifth?

I thought #5 would be soccer.
I do not care for track racing, but I would get a kick out of rally racing sets! Years ago, I had picked up some X-Games packs for someone else, but that was before they had the rally racing event. Yeah, rally racing and mountain bike racing would be cool too.
Dang... now I want. lol

Got a chuckle out of the Lingerie Football. Technically its called "Legends Football League" now. There are also a few regular uniformed Women's football leagues. To the best of my knowledge they have never had cards.
I agree with the WNBA. There are some cards out there and it looks like Rittenhouse is the current maker for those. Rittenhouse is known mostly for Non-Sports and does a great job with the autograph cards.
I'd like to see Arena Football and perhaps some company concentrate on some of the lesser known "american football" leagues that are around.

IndyCar and college football.
IndyCar hasn't had a set in over a decade. A few drivers made appearances in some Press Pass sets, but there was nothing devoted specifically to IndyCar. The Indianapolis 500 used to make those "cards" that were perforated sheets years ago. Those don't even exist any longer.
I also miss the old college football sets for my alma mater. There was a West Virginia University Hospital set in 1988, a 7-11 set a few years later and in the 90s, they made the program cards. Those have all gone away.
<sigh>

Unfortuneately, the NCAA’s rules for amateur athletes preclude companies like Panini, Topps, etc. from making cards and licensing autographs for the athletes while they’re still in school. I'd love to have yearly cards for college basketball, football, lacrosse, hockey athletes while they're still in school. I don't care for the post-graduation "draft" sets. And I never really cared for the quality of the sets the schools issued.
