4. There were some great "Afro's" in professional sports.

Especially in the NBA. DR. J had a great Fro.
I always thought that was the coolest look!
I was an Oscar Gamble fan as a kid.

2. So how does he get the cap to stay on his head ?

:shrug:

9. The cap didn't stay on. When he stepped on first base.......

while running out a single, his batting helmet would pop off his head.

I was a Royals fan and hated the Yankees, but I liked seeing Oscar Gamble's helmet pop off.

10. Oscar was my favorite player when I was 9 years old...

For my beloved Cleveland Indians; I loved it when he was batting and his fro spilled out of the side like a loofa!
