...okay well, maybe I have and I just forgot, I can't remember. But, how do you describe such awesomeness!

That trailer park at 130 and 168
One of my favorite cards, definitely a nineties classic and should stand the test of time beyond all of the prep school shots from the 1992 Bowman set like Jason Bere rockin' it with the Ralphie shirt.

I'm sure it has to be one of the most awesome things ever for a high school baseball player to have a card made of himself. To actually see yourself on a licensed trading card must feel incredible. However, imagine all those guys in that '92 Bowman set that never had another card made of himself and they went with such a horrible Glamour Shots pose with the prep shirt on the HS campus. That only leaves them with, "What was I thinking with that pose, that hair, that shirt? Should I ever show my grandkids I was on a real baseball card?"

But the Floyd card is pretty unique. Wasn't Floyd even from Chicago?

One of my favorites. Anybody else think that Bowman should have a "silk shirt" parallel as an homage to the 1992 set?

Great card but perhaps you've never seen it because ... it's Cliff Floyd. :?
