Ok, let's doux this.

1986.


Donruss.


BILLY JO(E) ROBIDOUX!

In ta the wallet with ye.


Beej is late to the party, but he's ready to explore the wonders of the world.


If anyone is super jealous of Monsieur Robidoux, I have another.


And another.

      I think the 87 Canseco Diamond King card would be my nightmare wall.

      That's fantastic - I saw that he was from MA. When I was just starting out as a kid, Robidoux cards were unavoidable - I would pull them in packs, re-packs, grab bags, trades... Do you know, is it pronounced "Robidoo" or "Robidough." I assume now that it is like the french "Doux", but I used to pronounce it dough to make the name rhyme
      Bill-y Jo / Ro-bid-ough

    Billy Jo would like to remind everyone that there is no fun in baseball.

    And there ain't no cryin' either....

      He might look a little miffed because we missed his birthday (January 13th, assuming Donruss is correct)
