I started wearing a baseball cap in 2020.

Like a lot of people, I think I went a bit mad during lockdown?

I started just wearing a baseball cap.

All the time.

I started wearing a cap all the time to deal with my overgrown hair.

When I eventually buzzed it short, the habit stuck.

Then afterwards, it became superstition.

(I started wearing it when the Dodgers were down 3-1 to the Braves, and they won 3 in a row afterwards) and the fact I couldn’t get a haircut easily.

When the Dodgers won the world series that year, first thing I did was buy 3 more baseball caps

  • Dodgers 2020 Winners Snapback Dodgers 2020 World Series Champs locker room cap
  • Dodgers 2020 Fitted Dodgers 2020 World Series Champions Fitted
  • 2020 Dodgers + Lakers Twin City Champions Dodgers x Lakers 2020 Dual Champions

As we eased out of lockdown, I kept wearing it as a bit of a good luck charm and mostly out of habit.

I completely forget about it?

One time a doctor asked me if the reason I didn’t take it off indoors was because I’d had a head injury. Which was a bit wild to me…

But I forget some people feel strongly about hats indoors.

Like Tony Soprano…

Regardless, it’s a comfort thing for me now, and I’ve stocked up on many, many, many caps at this point.

And it’s a flywheel problem, as people often gift me caps since they know I like them!

So my office is now full of them, and cap storage methods
