We knew a famiglia in Sierra Madre who came from Chi Town that Vinnie
commuted to work for. :-/
Half the businesses in Sierra Madre have something to do with witness protection programs. That's my wife's theory.
And Harry...
Russ, I get the Harry Caray thing. I grew up listening to Harry Caray and Jack Buck doing Cardinals games on KMOX. Or WRAY when reception was bad. Vin Scully bores me to tears.

Russ' last post post nails it and 9 out of 10 times it isn't the one Holding a CDL license. Nothing more dipshitty than a trucker hat wearing driver of a Sprinter van, sorry to all you millennial yuppies out there but I guess it does come in the MYL-SKI (Millennial Yuppie Life Starter Kit of Irony) starter kit so you have that as your defense!

Kind of a semi-trucker but just enough curve to be allowed...

Thats not how you pose in front of an expensive sports car you don't own
This is how it's done. When i was twelve, back when hats got in the way of my sweet mohawk

Wouldn't you know that this thread would pull me back to ST after many years absence. There is nothing more important in life than proper hatsmanship ! My preference is the classic baseball hat with bill softly curved and hat worn slightly above ears. Other members of the Cracko family have been guilty of wearing hats with V-shaped bills and hats pulled too snugly over the head. Shameful really! The worst sin in proper hatsmanship is the trucker or flatbill hat which is just goofier than shite!! As a middle school Principal, I banned flatbills and trucker hats by humorously appealing to parents sense of style and tradition. Every student at my school knew if they showed up with a flat bill they would be confronted and their principal would correctly shape the bill of their hat. The decal and price tag were also removed from the offending hat. Please just say NO to trucker and flat bill hats. If you need more motivation just take one look at a photo of Trump with a trucker "Make America Great Again" hat. Clearly, he's embarrassing the whole team!!

Does anybody ever put a curl in their hat like this? It's actually function curl over style. Any ideas what that function is?

^^Micro - Good one on the flat-biller front..
Being from Fresno you may be familiar..
I grew up in EastBako and all the cholos would flatten the bill of their ballcap (Dodgers cap in the Lomita/Colonia Varrio)then flip it up. Usually the barrio that they lived in was artfully displayed on under the bill. I know one of the reasons for the flip-up was a way to know who was your vato when it was necessary just in case you didn't know each other. Plus, those f*#ks are territorial as F**k!
Edit: I'd see the cholo wear it curled as well...just another way to be different

Yes Origin, I happen to know that that particular style is the universal distress symbol for impacted stool. Glad to be of service !!

Aahahaha! Hilarious, Cracko. Actually works like a spoiler when riding my motorcylce around my property. Keeps it on my head, so yeah a little down pressure, just not in the sense you are thinking of.
