What is wacky about this? Well, looking at the card back you can see where Topps did not put stats for Chris for 1966 nor 1967 for that matter. Why didn't Topps use the "Did not Play" Chris was on the Braves roster for 1966 (they traded him in December to Boston that year) he had a Braves card for the 1966 Topps set #497, which I recently acquired (see last weeks posts.). Oh well, it was a little interesting to me.

Ranger Aid.

Obviously staged, why else would a relief pitcher be climbing the wall to make a catch. Still "wacky worthy". They should of at the very least placed a ball in his glove, and told him to not look at the camera.
The Upper Deck logo on the bucket.
Some pretend play by play for you:
Ken Griffey Jr. at the plate. You know this kid just might have a future in this game. Here's the pitch...fastball, swings.... pulled foul down the first base side, into to the open-end of the tarp thing.
Enjoy your Wednesday!
