Disgraced American cycling star Lance Armstrong's missing testicle popped up in a game as he was presented with a card bearing the same while playing 'Cards Against Humanity'.

While playing 'Cards Against Humanity', which has reportedly suffered criticism for its bad taste after it mocked the Hillsborough disaster, Armstrong was presented with a card reading 'Lance Armstrong's missing testicle'.

According to the Daily Star, Armstrong, who was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 1996 and subsequently raised over 500 million-dollars for cancer research through his Livestrong foundation, was playing the game that consists of a player asking a question from the black cards and others answering it by picking a white card.

Arsmstrong, who was stripped of his seven Tour de France titles in 2012 before later admitting doping in an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2013, took the joke with good humour and posted a picture to his 3.8 million followers on Twitter, the report added.
