Humorous Namesby vrooomed - 17 cards (Last updated on Mar 12, 2018) |
11. 1995 Alliance Racing Team #4 Jeff Fender
Well, at least this Fender stays outside of the car too. |
12. 1997 Eurostar Tour de France #89 Mauro Bettin
He wanted to be a baseball player, but no one would allow it - just ask Pete Rose, there's no Bettin in baseball. |
13. 1999 Topps WCW/nWo Nitro - Authentic Signatures #NNO Hugh Morrus
Doesn't get much more Hugh Morris than this!!! Thanks Switzr! |
|
15. 1991 Pro Set #73 Lake Speed
Real name - perfect for a race car driver - maybe better for a boat racer? |
|
17. 1997 Pacific Philadelphia #186 Jay Walker
He must never use a cross walk. But can you imagine if stopped for doing that? He would be Jay Walker the jaywalker. |

A few years ago I got a card specifically for the player's name Chip Glass https://captkirk42.blogspot.com/2012/04/watts-in-name-football-glass.html | ||
You could always check out the earliest cards of wrestler Bill DeMott! | ||
Pun-tastic, David! | ||
I just put Boogers on my want list. Never thought I would say that. | ||
In 2009 the Winnipeg Goldeyes had a pitcher named Chris Homer, and another pitcher named Ace Walker. http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/159368/cid/10252670?PageIndex=1 There was also a wrestler in the 1990s who had a charcter named Bastion Booger

Card 52, 1960 Topps Baseball. A recent discovery. | ||
Soccer has a Razvan Rat | ||
Of course, there's Fair Hooker (WR for the Browns in the early 70's) and one of my all-time favorite sports headlines was "Satan Scores a Hat Trick"
| ||
Nice list, in the 90's/early 2000's maybe even still today there was a local DJ who used Jay Walker as his name, I don't think it was his real name. There once was a Cardinals player named Rich Hacker, I had to share that on Facebook a few years ago after that whole fiasco with the Astros. I also always got a kick out of hearing the names of Coco Crisp and Milton Bradley. |
