Looks like my grandpa's old lid. All he needs is a stinky cigar and an unhealthy obsession with "60 Minutes".

I'm thinking Bear Bryant. Is Elvis a 'Bama fan?

Anytime I see EC in a hat like that, I'm reminded of the Tom Waits concert in 1999 when I spotted him and Cait walking through the crowd, and I started shouting "Hey Elvis!" at him. (Bourbon was involved.) My friend shushed me, saying, "Maybe he doesn't want to be noticed right now." To which I said, "If he didn't want extra attention, he shouldn't be wearing that stupid hat."

Cait, meanwhile, was in a jovial mood, and happily waved at us.

Maybe it's a Bing Crosby tribute to celebrate Diana's Christmas album???

Is that the hat that Elvis bought The Imposters when he was in Buxton?
I wonder if Elvis is wearing his jeans as well :shock:

I like the picture though. There's something "ordinary" about it.

Mind you it's pretty difficult to find a hat that fits. When you're into hats you know that. This one isn't so bad.

The pic may not be the greatest, but I find it much better than any of those posted on his official site.

I know what you mean. I like certain hats but the phrase* "Twat in a Hat" would describe me perfectly.



*I'm not sure if anyone actually says this

It'd be much too individual for that lame site. The scarf makes it.
