Alternate Caps: World Series Game 5 Edition

See this cap? Let me tell you the type of person that wears this kind of cap….

These kind of guys do. My problem with these gentlemen? They helped themselves to handicapped seats for Game 1 of the World Series.

The rest of the section was filled with folks in wheelchairs…but these two had no noticeable reason to be there other than they beat Ticketmaster’s flawed system.

I respect Yankees fan Mr. Sunshine who was offered seats in this area for Game 1 and threw them back because he knew that it wasn’t right.

Anyways, back to caps. Today’s theme is ugly.

Why? Maybe you are a fan of the Gorton Fisherman era Islanders and the Yankees?

Apparently there is a cap style I just don’t like or understand.

Good luck to you guys. I hope you never actually have a need to sit in handicapped seats and hope you enjoyed the game.

Alternate Caps: World Series Game 4 Edition

A throwback edition of alternate caps. These from the 1910 Yankees. I never knew they wore red, always assumed it was white in those black and white photos. I wonder if we’ll see a 100th anniversary of this cap day next season?

Here’s the 1934 Phils. If you wore this to a game I would think it was cool, however if I saw you on the street I wouldn’t know this has anything to do with the Phillies so you would not get props.

This one from 1912. Not bad. I wouldn’t heckle you if you wore this.

1946 Phils. Not bad at all. Wearable.

Back tomorrow with some truly awful caps.

Alternate Caps: World Series Game 3 Edition

This next hat is nice, it’s orange and blue and has the traditional….oh wait I thought this was a Mets preview for a second. Why would any Yankees fan get a cap in these colors?

You know your friend that lives in Pittsburgh but still loves the Phillies?

Remember that episode of Batman where the Joker bought the Yankees? Also suitable for Lakers/Yankees fans.

This cap falls under my “if she’s really cute” rule. On a dude no way, but if the Phillies chick looks hot in this, it is workable.

Alternate Caps: World Series Game 2 Edition

What if Jeff Wilpon and Charlie Samuels controlled the Phillies? Maybe they would wear nonsense like this.

This cap is described as “leather.” I don’t know if it is actually made of leather but it sure is unattractive.

Can’t you just wear the Schmidt era caps? Aren’t those purple-ish enough for you?

You know how many people were wearing these at the Stadium last night? Zero. It is rumored that this cap has never been purchased by any Yankees fan, but I have yet to confirm the rumor.

Alternate Caps: World Series Game 1 Edition

As we get ready for tonight’s game, it’s time once again to look at alternate caps. This first one answers the question What would Mike Schmidt wear if his ears were cold?

Maybe you can’t decide if you’d rather go to the Knicks game than the World Series. This hat is close enough that it might allow you to wear it to both arenas.

Did you ever wish the Phillies were an ABA team?

Hmmm so close and yet why would you buy this one? What does the purple brim do for you?

More tomorrow!
