Re: Road hats
Ha ha, you don’t know what you’re missing. There’s a lot of good mileage left in those underwear. :-)

Re: Road hats
One just never knows what kind of head has been inside a hat like that...

Re: Road hats
I never buy used clothing with bullet holes in them, otherwise it's all good.

Re: Road hats
Sorry to do it, but after an almost two year hiatus, this thread is back! Just saw this one - the red caught my eye.

Re: Road hats
I’ve worn hats most of my life, I used to collect them. Had over 600 at one point. When I traveled for work I had Company Hats that I handed out, once the guys knew I collected hats I’d end up with a new one on every trip. After retiring I ran out of Company hats I had so now I wear a plain Black Ball Cap and buy them 25 at a time, once they get to dirty or sweaty I toss em. Still have hats hanging in the Garage rafters

Re: Road hats
I spotted an Army camo fatigue cap off the road…stopped to pick it up…it was full of puke (no doubt form some drunk soldier that didn’t want to puke in his buddy’s car…I left it….

Re: Road hats
Not a road hat but similar. It's a "lake hat" that washed up on shore this afternoon. It's a beauty. Wonder if I can salvage it. It appears that the previous owner was a member of a fishing team.

Re: Road hats
Look up the fishing team contact info and return it . We were fishing on the bay and my buddy dropped the new rod he bought for his girlfriend (good one, Dave ). We had a contest going for pulling it back up. Dave ended up snagging it back up, so just another fishing story.
I remember once I had a hat fly off my head while riding the Harley with my wife. I turned around, rode past it, turned around again, put my foot down, flipped it up, caught it, and put it back on my head. She was impressed

Re: Road hats
Gotta be careful with road hats in this state. Most likely a body attached.

Re: Road hats
That's terrible! But funny is a sick way! Peel the hat off and run it through the wash, then put it on and leave the state.

Re: Road hats
Like I said in a previous post in this state it might have a body attached or most likely a setup to carjack you and take YOUR hat, wallet, pants, shirt etc.

Re: Road hats
i don't pick up hats BUT i'm a sucker for road tools, ratchet straps, bunji cords etc. my dad has found four toolboxes over his 93 years, i've never been that lucky. maybe i'll start looking for hats now.

Re: Road hats
I was on my way to have lunch with my brother's grown kids last January, Making a left, I spied something glittering in the opposite lane. I looped around and found an 11/16'' deepwell in 1/2'' drive and nearby, a socket extension, also 1/2'' drive, about 6'' long.
