100 Random Cool Mets Things #12: Ice Cream Caps

Please understand there is a difference between GOOD and cool.  In a previous installment I mentioned the 1993 road jerseys.  If you walk up to me in your brand new Cespedes jersey, it tells me who you are.  If you show up in a Craig Swan jersey, it tells me who you are.  If you have a ’93 road, it tells me who you are.  And if you have an ice cream cap, it tells me who you are.

These looked terrible.  Not as terrible as the 15 years of black hell that was to come, but these looked bad.

There’s probably a way to make them work, and as civilian-wear they do indeed work – but I dunno, look at that picture, it just doesn’t work.  It works better than many things, but this isn’t awesome.

I have a cap that for some reason has a World Series patch on it, but again, as civilian-wear it’s not bad.

So, why does this make the cool list?  Because it’s random and way more interesting than posting about what the Mets 2016 rotation might be.  That that stuff elsewhere.
