Fedora Lounge Edition {Everything Australian } Akubra Camp Draft 2 5/8s brim

Congrats Tom! That's definitely got to be a fun email to receive.

Congratulations Tom!

Well done Tom!

Thanks guys! It was a delightful surprise this morning for sure.
The thought of having another BG with a narrower brim doesn't seem awkward as it did last night....

Congrats Tom!

Did I mention the winner wears a hat in a larger size range?

When I saw this I thought it might be me or Tom! Congratulations Tom. I'm sure we will both enjoy our new hats!

Woo-Hoo! Congratulations to Tom!

Congrats Tom! I hope you parlay that free hat into a winning lottery ticket!

 

[DJH]

Very cool, Tom.

Actually, you are lucky I already have a BGCD or I would have been in this buy and would have won the hat - I won 2 free hats already since summer and they say things come in three's!

Oh, Mike - you did a great job organizing this deal. I'm looking forward to seeing all these cool new hats being posted here in the New Year!

 

[MCrider]

Never won a free hat before! ....going to buy a lottery ticket later today to see if I'm on a streak....
SWEET!

Congrats Tom! Hey if you hit big in the lottery, maybe you can buy all our hats for us - y'know, spread the wealth.

Congrats Tom! You were one of the first to throw your name into the list and I appreciated that. It helped to get the ball rolling. Seemed to bring you some good Karma as well.

Thanks everyone from me. Thanks to the guys who would jump in and float the thread to the top of the forum so it stayed visible.

Thanks very much to RBH for giving me the support and guidance to push start this endeavour. I spoke to RBH about this concept before I headed out to see what damage I could do.

It has been fun so far. I am not sure if I mentioned this, but at the start of all this I had emailed Sam at Everythingaustralian to propose the idea of a moderate brimmed CD. At 3 AM that same night my home phone rings and my wife answers. My lovely wife says "It's for you". I am in the computer industry and frequently oncall for client support so I figured it was a work call.

It was Sam. He was so enthusiastic about the idea he wanted to discuss the project. I knew right then this could be a go.

Sam asked that I pass along his thank-you as well to all who participated. He is very anxious to deliver your new hats to you next January.

Long story short, Sam and I are practically pen pals with the daily correspondence to get this sorted out.

Thanks to Major Mike who offered to buy multiple hats when it was getting close to the wire and we needed to get to the magic number 25. Truly a class act.

I will keep you posted with any news from down under.

Congratulations, Tom! Thanks for taking point, Mike.

Draw is tomorrow...keep a good thought!

Thanks to everyone who made this deal happen.

Just think, there will only be about thirty of these hats in existence worldwide, from this production. Maybe in fifty years from now, people will be discussing the origins of this modified model!

 

[TPD166]

Congratulations on the win - and thanks to everyone for supporting this effort to us all a great hat!

Hey, the way I see it: only one guy got a free hat, but we're all winners here! This is going to be a very special hat. Congratulations to one and all!

Late to the party!

Hi, just recently joined and found this message. I assume I'm too late to join the party?

 

[RBH]

For now... but we hope we may be able to do this again with another color.
As to the bluegrass green Campdraft, when the hats come in, you can check with Sam at EVERYTHING AUSTRALIAN.
I believe he ordered some to sell at his shop.
