Are you a Yankees fan?

Are you looking for a new hat to wear?

Something a little...different?

Well, let's peruse the selection that's available, like this lovely specimen:

There are many more wonderful horrific examples (and snarky commentary) through that link.

Personally, I think #8 is the worst of the bunch.

Oh my god, this one...

...what the hell happened to the logo?

Well, sometimes when a hat is nervous about being with another hat for the first time, the logo might not be ready to perform...

That's the cap they wore during the Horace Clarke era.

I picture these being sold at the historically named rest stops along the NJTP.

It would be interesting if every team did this. I would buy at least one item from the Pittsburgh Pirates Dock Ellis Collection.

Holy shit, that fruit salad one. I kind of want to buy one for the sole purpose of using it as a future bet payoff.

August in Alabama -- must be time for Auburners to puff up their chests about how awesome they are.

Maybe NoMich's hat is just an enormous hat with a regular-sized logo?

Well, it's not just the Yankees. I went looking for what lively awfulness is on offer for my Cubbies and found plenty.

Pandora has done left the building.

I'll have to check the gift shop at the Philadelphia Patrolmen's Association office to see if there's a Phillies cap that looks like a fan threw up on it.

It's like someone has messed up the colour settings on my monitor.

Wasn't that one of the color themes available on Windows 3.1? Does it come in hot dog stand?

Does it come in hot dog stand?

Ah, yes. The colour theme that blows out your cones and rods.
