A $125 baseball cap? For that price it had better have a GPS system and air conditioning. Not quite, as it turns out; but the new Muhammed Ali commemorative cap is pretty tricked out.
New Era’s limited-edition Ali CAPTURE THE FLAG pays homage to his historic gold medal victory on September 5th, 1960, during the summer games in Rome, Italy. Reminiscent of his uniform, the cap is white leather with red, white and blue satin stripes and emblazoned with his signature. The underside features a white satin lining with a gold imprint of a waving American flag and the words “Celebrating 50 Years.” The Muhammad Ali Enterprises logo, featuring his signature open-armed stance, appears on the back of the cap. Each cap will be sold in a specially designed case.
I could probably see Turtle from Entourage waiting in line for one, but not me. The first thing I do with a new baseball cap is roll the brim and crease the top; and I have also been known to wing it at the cat. Probably not recommended for this item. At any rate, the age of the overpriced collectible lid is here, folks. If you buy this, you are opening the door to their tyranny.
We’re all in strung out of shape, but stay frosty, and alert. We can’t afford to let Thursday in here.
