Your original post didn't solicit opinions on what the hat should look like, only whether or not each of us would buy one if offered for sale.

I don't see a problem with giving opinions. The third choice in the poll is "Could go either way, see my comments below." That was my choice and I added my comments.

I agree with Bruce. I am interested in a cap, design pending.

Just a quick post to keep this fresh. If you haven’t voted please do, it will help me get an idea of the size of the order I need to place, and of course, the more that get ordered, the cheaper they are.

Thanks

Pete

I don't believe a yes vote=a commitment to buy. (if it were I'd own a few loser Presidential candidates!)

Probably less then $15.00 US. That does not include postal cost to mail it to you. That should be nominal.

That’s correct, and as far as the looser presidents go you can have them!

I got all excited when after 2 months I saw this thread active again! Vet where you been?

Every time I see one of those instant cap embroidery kiosks at the mall I think to myself that I'll bring the logo by one of these days and just do it!
(Then I'll come here and post nah nah nah nah nah! )

In the U.K. we have a saying "If you see a young man in a baseball cap driving an old Ford Fiesta be afraid. If you see another young man in the passenger seat be very afraid." A reference to young maniacs(boy racers) who own beat-up Ford Fiestas and drive them as if others lives depended on them. Unfortunately they do depend on them if they happen to be on the road at the same time.

Sorry had to get that off my chest. It's a teenager's headgear here. Older guys just look sad in them.

I'd love to see an APUG baseball cap that had an extendable/retractable bill. That way, it would fit under a darkcloth without having to turn it around. ;-)

A Pug

I can envisage some moron coming up to me, and saying " you look like a pug as well " It's what's called in boxing "leading with the chin " . I would suggest we re-think the logo.

Gee are we declaring it open season on the hat design again? To those who didn't participate before, this is very much like hunting anything: We arm ourselves with esthetic judgement and shoot at whoever came up with a helpful idea until they stagger off discouraged, idea dead and, it were me, pissed as heck!

I would rather have a floppy/broad brim hat. A fishing hat. Us older folks need sun protection for our ear and face.

Good idea Peter, but I wouldn't be seen dead in a baseball cap. Over here they are Chav wear.
I would definitely buy an APUG bush hat though.
