The Altoona Curve have a reversible "rally cap" design on the inside. It's interesting, especially since I dig a lot of Minor League designs.

It's pretty cool, but is it $32 worth of cool? I'm not sure.

I'm kind of tired of the Disneyfication of minor league logos - seems everyone is some cartoon character these days. I don't mind whimsical, just wish the artwork didn't look like it was torn out of a Sunday comic section.
To me - the list of greatest minor league caps begins and ends with the Carolina Mudcats.

The orange or black one?

Still can't get over a face of a fish as a mascot, though.
 
I'll submit a "No" vote. It sort of kills the spirit of the rally cap to have a design on the inside.

Also, what kind of message does this send? That you expect to be in a position where a late-game comeback will be necessary? THAT'S DEFEATIST!! I'm just thinking about the kids.

In large part, I wish death upon both of you when you start talking that ****. But the above line made me laugh out loud.

Is that a Butter Me Elmo? Actually - I have a Biscuits hat - went to a game in Montgomery - great stadium (they actually serve biscuits, there is an actual rail line not 15 feet past the left field fence and you are usually good for at least one freight train to go past each game).

If freight trains are your thing, you've got to go to Binghamton. World's slowest freight train passes beyond the outfield fence. We once counted 50 or so cars. Think it took six innings.

If it moved faster, only the locals from Vestal would be able to count them.

Did you like it when it first came out, or has it grown on you?

Not being snarky, just curious.
