They were probably waiting for the Boston Red Sox to win the World Series.
If you find another island somewhere that has giant statues wearing bear cubs on their head, this will support my theory.

Red Hats? Obviously a hommage trendy group of retirement aged women who “lunch.”

I’ve seen speculation that red hats were used because the people had red hair.

Some chief woke up and said, “I had a dream...”, and then ordered his peons to stop farming and start making hats for the statues.
Probably believed it would stop global warming.
