Good eye, Hurricane.

Been a player since I was 8 yrs old. Played a lot of 3-cushion & also One Pocket on a true One Pocket table where there are only 2 corner pockets on one end of a table. You don't see much of either now days.

Fred Bear -- pretty well known for the hat.

Strange - I'd forgotten about his hat. I've always known him for his bow and never paid attention to the hat. Thanks for posting this.

If he had a clock around his neck I'd think it was a time-traveling Flavor Flav!

Maybe he thought the hat was ostentatious enough, and went by the name of Beaver Beav.
