Show off Your Game Used Caps...

[frikativ54]

Post your game worn hats. Lots of use preferable. Most of my caps aren't used that well, but I'd like to see some that are. Though even if it isn't, I'd love to see it anyway.

Atlanta Braves Tim Hudson Hats. I purchased them at the Atlanta Braves Clubhouse and had him sign both of them at the Braves fanfare before the regular season. It's difficult to see but both are covered in sweat stains.

Just curious, how do you differentiate between sweat stains and dirt stains on a cap? Are the white marks always sweat stains? IDK, but do players sweat that much in places besides the brim?

The white marks on my Tim Hudson hats are sweat stains. Players do sweat that much and especially Tim Hudson who has no hair, so the hat is the only thing between it, and his head since he has no hair.
