The local high school had a Back to School Night with parents visiting, and an ice cream social then 15 minute blocks to meet the teachers. I went with my daughter and did get some looks, but as I walked into a classroom one of her teachers said, "I LIKE your HAT!" My daughter laughed and I said "thank you."
I guess they have a "No Hats" rule at the school so I was sure to bring my tallest, boldest hat (not the Dobbs Temptation, which is truly a pimped out hat): the Everyman Indy with 5-1/4" crown after the center dent, medium pinch front with well defined side dents and a 2-3/4" raw brim.
I joked with my daughter, "I'm chewing gum, too. I assume that's against the rules as well?" What a rebel I've become.
I always comment on a person's hat if it's appropriate and timely. That usually leads to a nice discussion about hats, which is always fun.
