True! And who knows, maybe they were laughing at the bogey hanging out of my nose.Well, better those kinds of comments than some nut calling you Indy or a Gangster.

An old lady asked me if I was married the other day. I was wearing my black Dobbs 20. I told her yes, and asked if the hat gave me away. She was trying to set her granddaughter up with a guy like me.

Got two typical hat comments on Saturday, (Are you Amish, and an Indiana Jones one, of course)
I did have a guy stop me and ask me where I got the hat. (I was wearing my Strat.) He asked to see it and looked it over and said he plans on trying to get one for himself.

When I was a freshman in college a hundred years ago, a nice lady on the bus pressed me to call her granddaughter. Gave me the number. So I called. Boy, did she ever not want to meet men rousted out by her grandmother.

This reminds me of the time I was out, wearing my black Homburg and charcoal chesterfield coat (same day as my avatar picture was taken) and someone asked me if I was a Rabbi. Complete ignorance! Still, I guess it was a conversation starter!

If any of the girls were half as interested in me as their mothers & grandmother were in my 20's, I'd had even more of a blast! Probably why I married an older woman....
nice hat dude!

That would work even better than. They have no idea what Amish think then.
Tell them you are part of the Amish Mafia and you know John.

I've had a comment from an older woman about how I reminded her of her husband.An old lady asked me if I was married the other day. I was wearing my black Dobbs 20. I told her yes, and asked if the hat gave me away.
Nice, yet sad in a way ...

I spent Christmas at my cousin's place and was wearing my Ralf Reynolds panel cap. His wife said that I looked like a 1930s golfer and the only things that were vaguely vintage looking was my cap and my leather jacket.

Sounds like you looked more like you were going to target practice that golfing.
