Mine is card #109 from the 1977 Topps set...the Chip Myers "Chargers" card. Bad airbrushing, Bengal sideline in the background, and Myers retired before playing with the Chargers.
Your nominations for worst football card ever

Looks like a "Depends" ad...

The two where they had the wrong Jim Taylor. The two of them look nothing alike. Furthermore, why did Topps even have a pic or the other Taylor. He barely played in the NFL. It pained me to pay money for one of those cards.
Re: Your nominations for worst football card ever
You could just about pick any card from the 1991 and 1992 Pro Line sets. The players were either shirtless and/or just wearing a lot of NFL apparel in stupid poses.

John Hadl 1975 card with the Packers is awful. I always like the "Patriots" no. 5 (maybe an official or chain guy, but not a player).

Re: Your nominations for worst football card ever
I remember in the early 80s Topps had a lot of "guys sitting on the sideline with a towel over their head" poses which I thought were kind of lame.
Re: Your nominations for worst football card ever
Especially since Hadl never faced the Patriots during his season-and-a-half with the Packers. I wondered why they felt compelled to paint over the other team's uniforms in addition to Hadl's Rams uniform.Teo wrote:John Hadl 1975 card with the Packers is awful.

Johnny Unitas's "crazy eyes" card is so bad it's good.

Especially since the straight-laced Unitas was kind of the last person you'd think would make such a bizarre face ...
