Show off your hats!

Sweet action for kids 'n' cretins. Marjoram and capers.

Show off your hats!

Post by BostonBeaneater »

Inspired by RevBobs new hat, I have created a hat thread.

Here is my current rotation:

Love the old 'Spos hat—I should get one. I have a Red Sox cap that started out navy blue and is now Trot Nixon grey from sweat and sun. I think the Boss got it in Boston in '08 because I told her she'd need a hat sitting in the bleachers. I inherited it after the game. After a dozen years, it's hard to give it up—its wretched condition seems earned.

My newly acquired Golpanners hat.

Someone got my a Yankees hat years ago for a gift swap but it was way too small.

I mainly have like winter hats (including the infamous AT hat), several that the kids have lost over the years. I generally dont wear hats outside of the cold weather.

I bought the Montreal & Pawtucket hats last we when I must have been bored with 3 beers in me, forgot about the two for one priced hat purchase, and then they arrived today. I am happy with both of them. I briefly entertained the tri-color Expos hat but chickened out.

I'm into this hat but I'm more of an Anchorage Glacier Pilots fan.

Another team with a good history. My uncle lived in Fairbanks when he wasn't up in the Artic Circle working on oil rigs and such so he was a Goldpanners fan. So Im keeping my allegiance in his honor.

If y'all are unaware of Ebbet's Field, they deal in reproductions of old minor league and Cuban and Negro League teams' gear. I've bought a couple jerseys and t-shirts from there, but they also do caps.

A friend of mine used to work for one of these places. Not sure if it was this one. He had a Diallo jersey with the #41 on it with bullet holes. Not sure who made it but it was a professional type jersey.

I got my son a Black Yankees hat when I visited the Negro Leagues museum.

This one's based in Washington State, I believe. The jerseys are the heavy wool flannel, which means, curiously enough, you'd never want to wear them in the summer. Seriously, they're thick, but definitely high quality.

Yeah I wanna say that is who he worked for. Lost touch with him after he left NYC. He was another leftist baseball fanatic.

Yep. Got it in Copperstown.
Hello,

Cooperstown? I've been a few times (it's near my family in upstate NY). Really cool little village. The Baseball Hall of Fame is a great visit.
