Charles Guy Tolar (September 5, 1937 – April 28, 2003) was an early American Football League (AFL) star who played his entire career with the Houston Oilers.

At Northwestern, Tolar was twice Gulf States Conference MVP and still holds four school records.

One of the most popular figures in the early days of the AFL, the 5-5, 200-pounder had dozens of nicknames, including "the Human Bowling Ball", and was named to AFL All-Star teams in 1961, 1962 and 1963.

Tolar helped the Houston Oilers win the first American Football League championship in 1960 and repeat in 1961.
