i've decided to start a series on ridiculous flames merchandise, and i'm beginning with the age-old kids' game uno. really. REALLY. i mean, i guess the nhl retail thinktank just needs to come up with random items to stamp team logos onto in the name of profits, so why not this ?! everybody loves crazy eights, and i'm sure we could easily develop a drinking game for the name-brand mattel product with the same rules... and if you put players on the cards, it's that much better..... right ?
right.
except WHAT PLAYERS ??!?
and of course, you can't play uno without the all-important wild card, and who else would grace the flames version than our beloved iggy with vintage iggy playoff scruff and scoreface (and all neatly contained in a flames chevron-era away jersey box) ??
anyhow.
who wants to play ?

Why buy a deck of cards when you could buy a freakin' village ($79.99):

HOLY SHIT !!! wtf IS that ?!?! the arena is all wrong and the zamboni appears to be outdoors....

I hope you saved that Avon NHL catalogue from before Christmas. I have my eye on the Flames leaded glass lamp.
Btw... I am so gonna kick your ass at Flaming Uno, even if I don't recognize Jeff Friesen from his picture.
I want this so so so much.
