A lot of the French wear NY Yankees hats. They sell them in all their department stores. LA Dodgers hats are also popular.
I was in Italy in October.
Yankees hats are very popular.
I am a Red Sox fan.
I was standing next to a guy in Rome who had an LA Dodgers hat on. I said to him at least you are not wearing a F’n Yankees hat. He just looked at me blankly.
Then I realized he did not speak English.
Was in a hip jeans shop in Koln about 8 years ago. Main level was all hip, selling Levi’s and Wrangler jeans. Upper level was vinyl tile and exposed fluorescent fixtures, selling working man’s pants - the cool Euro work pants with tons of tool pockets. I’d first seen them on pit crews for Euro brands at Road Atlanta, then really all the blue collar guys on the streets in Western Euro cities. Love that style of pants, wish they were more available here.
The Yankees hat is ubitiqious.
