I know now why I couldn’t get my choice for Red Sox 2013 World Champions hat. They gave the first ones they had made up to the hoi polloi of the team. Here is the Red Sox chairman, John Henry, wearing my hat during the November 2nd Duck Boat parade through the city streets of Boston.
Seeing ol’ Johnny boy styling the hat fueled my desire for it again, so I went shopping. Just when it seemed like I was out of luck, as it was sold out or not available everywhere I looked, I found it on the site of the manufacturer. It is a one-size-fits-all variation instead of fitted, which I prefer anyway, so I bought one. Let’s see how long it takes to get here.
