Topps, the leading producer of sports and non-sports themed trading cards., made a baseball card of 50 Cent’s first pitch at the New York Mets’s Citi Field. The throw that was made fun of by Bob Costas and Former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords will now be commemorated as a special edition first pitch baseball card (see below). You just can’t make this stuff up.

Since the throw happen last May 50 sent has been catching flack for it. Last month, the multimillionaire was honored by the MLB with the 2014 MLB Network Social Media “Most Memorable First Pitch” award, which 50 flaunted on Instagram. What’s even scarier is that the head honcho of G-Unit reportedly practiced before that pitch. 50 hasn’t commented on the Topps card as yet, but he’s probably excited about that as well. Even though the pitch was a fail, it was hilarious. If you haven’t seen it, check it out below.

In other news, G-Unit is getting ready to drop some new fire. The Beast is G-Unit EP was supposed to drop in October, but was later pushed back. A couple of weeks ago, 50 shared the cover art to the project and revealed that it’s dropping on March 3. If the 6-track EP is as good as  Last year’s The Beauty Of Independence, then fans are in for a treat.  Here’s the tracklist below:

1. Ballin’
2. I’m Grown
3. Bring The Bottles
4. Doper Than My Last One
5. Boy Boy
6. Choose One
