1990 Donruss #228 - Be a Little More Excited, Kid!

Here's a card I randomly noticed one day while looking through my stuff. It's a nice photo of Ellis Burks posing for the camera, looking pretty happy to be on a baseball card:
Only thing is, hardly anyone in the background seems excited at the fact that they might be joining them. Particularly the dude just to the right of Burks and a kid who is presumably his son:
I mean, I know it's pre-game and all, and I know the kid is wearing a Mariner's hat, but really? You could've flashed a peace sign, or given your dad bunny ears, or done something to be immortalized in baseball card history. Instead they're just chilling, like it's no big deal. Bummer.

As a side note, I wonder if people ever realize that they made it to a player's card? As in, did this kid ever open a pack of 1990 Donruss and find himself on Burks' card?
