Oakland Invaders USFL Bumper Sticker

Here is a bumper sticker from the Oakland Invaders of the USFL.  The team played in the league from 1983 to 1985, with the 1985 team being a merged roster including players from the 1984 Michigan Panthers.

This post will provide you multiple resources to discover more information about the Oakland Invaders.  The team played in the United States Football League during the 1983-1985 USFL seasons:

One of the running jokes among Boy Scouts during the time that the USFL was in existence was that the Oakland Invaders must have been involved with the Scouts.  This is because the Invaders logo looked VERY similar to the Boy Scout electricity merit badge logo.

Thanks to Eagle Scout Mark Bershatsky for bringing this to our attention!

Judge for yourself!
