20 Years Of F**k Face: The Story Of Billy Ripken
It’s hard to believe it’s been 20 years since a light hitting infielder and a Fleer baseball card combined to offend old people, confuse collectors and amuse millions of ten-year-olds. But it’s true: two decades have passed since the legendary Billy Ripken “F**k Face” card entered the nation’s consciousness.
It’s a tale that’s been shrouded until mystery…until now. Ripken’s been retired for 11 years (yeah, I was as shocked as you to learn his career spanned 12 seasons), and since Cooperstown probably isn’t calling, he figured he might as well open up about the only reason, other than his last name, that anyone remembers him.
