Whether you’re a fan of professional sports teams or the stars from your favorite TV shows, chances are good that you have at least one bobblehead in your collection. These little figurines are shaped in the likeness of popular athletes and are often given away at games. But while these goofy plastic statuettes are often a source of great fun, they can also cause controversy, heated debate and in one case, actual physical injury.
In this article we will take a look at some of the most controversial bobbleheads that have ever been made. From a bobblehead of a racist baseball player to one of a woman holding an axe, these figurines have caused heated arguments, extreme shame and even physical harm.
When it comes to bobblehead d4l, the Boston Red Sox are certainly not lacking. In recent years the team has doled out a Johnny Damon bobblehead, a hysterical Zim Bear bobblehead and a terrifying Wade Boggs one. But there’s a big problem with this: None of these bobbleheads actually look like their real-life counterparts.
The group’s breakout single “Laffy Taffy” was an instant hit, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and introducing audiences to snap music — a genre that blends infectious beats with simple euphemisms and a heavy Southern influence. It also helped propel D4L into the mainstream and into a lucrative joint venture with 50 Cent’s G-Unit Records. Despite its popularity, the song was marred by controversy. Specifically, rapper Liam “Smack Eyes” Thomas claimed that the group stole the lyrics from his rhyme book.
