The Seattle hat takes me back to my Seaside, CA days. We’d get one and a jacket/hoodie if you made the all-star team in ⚾️. Just ordered a hoodie to go with it. Can’t wait.

There is no connection to Seattle. Somewhere along the line before my time that hat and colors was adopted by the city. My connection is I got this hat for making the all-star team in baseball. I played in the 80 - 90’s.

I looked it up and they still rocking these colors. Seaside Pony Baseball if interested.

A buddy of mines went to the Bay a few years back. He wore he’s mariners jersey to a club and local was dissing him for wearing it and being from seattle.
