Look! It’s the 70s! If you clicked on this, you are either a sports fan or are a hipster pretending to be a sports fan while eating your stupid deconstructed spaghetti. What a decade to be alive! It must have been awesome… well as long as you weren’t a minority or a woman. Otherwise, people like me could pretty much do whatever we felt like. So here are some random photos from the 1970s to remind us that s*** was f***ing weird back then.

Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain. Two of the greatest basketball players of all time. Look at how long those legs are! Or maybe it’s the shorts… I dunno, science.

Watch all the hipsters try to buy some of these. Your friend, Thad or Lilly, is probably telling you they already got a pair from (insert douchy thrift store name).

I don’t know what Will Ferrell movie this is, but I’m sure it’s a good one.

There’s no way in hell this dude’s name is Rollie Fingers? His son’s name is Sticky, his wife’s name is Butter, and their band name is Fingerbang.

This photo is titled “Gays vs SFPD” (San Francisco Police Department). I don’t know how or why, but I’m assuming the white guys are cops (because of course they are) trying to get the black guy out ~~of the closet~~ at third base.

This is Ken Dryden. You can tell he’s an illegal immigrant because his stick says “Canadian”.

The “Immaculate Reception”! Proof that the Raiders sucked back then too.

I didn’t know Wilford Brimley was a wrestler. He looks so weird when he shaves. However, Chris Christie looks like exactly what I thought he would look like.
