The Fridge at Wrestlemania 2William Anthony Perry (born December 16, 1962) is a former American college and professional football player who was a defensive lineman in the National Football League (NFL) for ten seasons during the 1980s and 1990s. Perry played college football for Clemson University, and was recognized as an All-American. He was selected in the first round of the 1985 NFL Draft, and played professionally for the Chicago Bears and Philadelphia Eagles of the NFL. In reference to his large size, he was popularly known as "The Refrigerator" or, abbreviated, "The Fridge".
To Phillips, Happy 47th Birthday to Mr. Fuck Face, Billy Ripken
In 1989, Ripken's Fleer card showed him holding a bat with the expletive fuck face written in plain view on the knob of the bat. Fleer subsequently rushed to correct the error, and in their haste, released versions in which the text was scrawled over with a marker, whited out with correction fluid, and also airbrushed. On the final, corrected version, Fleer obscured the offensive words with a black box (this was the version included in all factory sets). Both the original card and many of the corrected versions have become collector's items as a result. There are at least ten different variations of this card. As of February 2009 the white out version has a book value of $120.Years later, Ripken admitted to having written the expletive on the bat; however, he claimed he did it to distinguish it as a batting practice bat, and did not intend to use it for the card. In the same letter, he expressed the opinion that Fleer was well aware of the obscenity, and not only retained but made it even clearer, hoping to benefit from the publicity the card would no doubt receive.
Some collectors list the card as the "Rick Face" card. The script on the bat appears to make the word fuck look similar to Rick.

Joe Clark: [Clark's roof-top pep-talk to Thomas Sams] The problem with teenagers today is you don't know nothing. The problem with being a teenager is you *think* you know better than those who have been down that road you're traveling. Have you told your father what happened to you? You haven't? No guts, huh? You're afraid of what he might say to you.
Thomas Sams: My father doesn't live with us anymore, sir.
Joe Clark: Oh, is that it? You just go around feeling sorry for yourself? Get out of here, boy; you're wasting my time!
Thomas Sams: Please, sir. I have to get back in school, somewhere. I can't just go home and tell my mother I got thrown out of school.
Joe Clark: Boy, what have you been thinking about all this time, and why should I believe you now?
Thomas Sams: Because I'll do better, sir. I'll go to class and do all my work and...
Joe Clark: And what else? Why don't you just jump off the roof, right here and now? That's what you really want, isn't it? Yes, you do. You smoke crack, don't you, boy? Don't you smoke crack? Yeah, I thought so. And you know what that does to you? You don't? It kills your brain cells, son. It kills your brain cells! Now when you're destroying your brain cells, you're doing the same thing as killing yourself. You're just doing it slower! Now, I say if your wanna kill yourself, don't fuck around with it, do it expeditiously! Go on and jump! JUMP!
Thomas Sams: No! I don't wanna jump!
Joe Clark: ...You're quite sure about this, are you?
Thomas Sams: ...That's why I haven't jumped already, sir.
Joe Clark: Maybe. All right, Sams, I'll tell you what I'm gonna do: I'm gonna go back on my own word and let you into my school again. But you're not gonna get a moment's rest. I'm gonna be on your case every minute - just waiting for you to slip up THIS MUCH, so I can toss you right back out. Do you understand me? *Do you?*
Thomas Sams: ...You think I don't appreciate this at all, sir.
Joe Clark: ...We'll see. Alright, let's get back downstairs. Come on. [they do so]
