Scumbag Steve

Common card · No. 335567

Scumbag Steve is a fictional character seen in an Internet meme that became popular in January 2011. The meme depicts him standing in a doorway with a dazed stare wearing a gold chain, backwards flat-brim Red Sox hat, and puffy winter coat with a fake fur collar. The photo originated in 2006, when 16-year-old Blake Boston posed for a photo taken by his mother, Susan Boston, at their home in Millis, Massachusetts. The meme generally superimposes text on top of the image of Boston consisting of an introductory sentence at the top and a punchline at the bottom. In 2012, Boston released a rap single on iTunes, under the alias "Blake Boston AKA Scumbag Steve" in an attempt to launch a career in music.
