Which Nashville Sounds Hat Should I Get?

[Crew2323]

I need some help deciding which Nashville Sounds hat should I purchase? It's either the home hat, or the road hat. Which do you prefer? I'm leaning toward the road hat. I just think it looks sharper. I look forward to your feedback.

Road.

I'd go w/ the home hat. It's the one I have. Be careful though. Some of the brims that they give you just flat out stink and you feel like you're going to break it if you curve your brim at all. I had to go through nearly 8 hats at the game with the concession guy before I found one that was "normal".

I'd go with the black, personally.

Home will show less wear. Me likey.

I'd go with the home. The road hat does stand out more, but I am partial to dark colored hats. http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/smile.gif

Thanks for all the advice. I ended up purchasing the road hat on the sounds official website. Almost all of my hats are dark colored. I purchased a the current Brewer hat as well as a Twins "TC" hat as part of a buy one get one half off deal years ago. Both those were dark. 8 years ago I bought another dark hat as I purchased the black Cincinnati Reds hat with the red brim. Now, before you jump on me for buying a Cincy hat, I bought it because I stayed a week with Danny Graves father-in-law, who ended up asking if I liked baseball. When I said yes, he took me with him to the Reds spring training facility. I got to see Barry Larkin and Ken Griffey Jr., as it was the first year he was with the Reds. It was really cool. Then, to top it all off, I was able to go to Danny Graves apartment. By the way, that was the year he was an all-star. It was pretty cool! To make a long story short, almost all of my hats are dark, so that is why I went with the red. Both look good though!

 

JJ, did you purchase your hat directly through the Sounds website or at their actual ball park? Was it a real stiff brim? I bought a new Brewers hat this spring and it had a flimsy brim when I opened the box. I thought there was no way I could get the curve I wanted. Only after getting soaked after the Brewers/Giants game in mid-June did my hat finally conform to my head, and my brim curve how I wanted it. I'd be interested to hear more about the brim of your Sounds hat JJ and how you dealt with it.
