Well, let me tell you ’bout this Rickie Fowler fella and his hats. Folks seem to make a big fuss ’bout ’em, so I figured I’d chinwag a bit.
Rickie Fowler, the Golfing Fella
Now, this Rickie, he’s a golfer. A pretty good one, they say. He hits that little white ball real far and gets it in the hole more often than most. I seen him on the TV a few times. Always smilin’, that one. Seems like a nice young man.
He wins some of them golfin’ matches, too. Just the other day, I heard tell he won that Rocket Mortgage Classic thing. Beat some other fellas in a playoff, whatever that means. Sounds fancy. He even got a little girl, Maya. He was celebratin’ with her, real sweet.
The Hats, Oh, The Hats!
But the thing folks really get worked up about ain’t his golfin’ so much, it’s his hats. Seems he wears a lot of ’em. Different colors, different letters, all sorts of stuff.
- I seen him with hats that got that Puma cat on ’em.
- And some with just a “P.” Folks say that “P” is for Portland, where they make all kinds of clothes and hats. Even got that “O” and “R” all circled up like that state, Oregon. Heard they got mountains and trees there, pretty like.
- He even wears hats with an “L,” they said it is like the “L” on the hill above Maui’s Lahainaluna High School. Never been to that Maui place, but I hear it’s nice.
Now, I don’t know much ’bout fashion, but I reckon these hats must be somethin’ special. People are always talkin’ ’bout ’em. Searchin’ online for “Rickie Fowler hat,” “Rickie Fowler P hat,” you name it. They got “Rickie Fowler PGA tour profile” and “Rickie Fowler stats”. Makes my head spin, all this talk ’bout hats and golfin’.
Why All the Fuss?
I guess it’s ’cause Rickie’s good at golfin’ and folks like to copy what the good ones do. If he wears a hat with a “P,” then everybody wants a hat with a “P.” If he wears a cat, then everyone wants a cat. That’s how it goes, I reckon. Just like them fancy shoes everyone was wearin’ a few years back. Now you hardly see ’em no more.
More Than Just Hats
But it ain’t just the hats, is it? It’s about Rickie himself. He’s been golfin’ real good lately. Broke some record at the U.S. Open, shot a 62 or somethin’. That’s real low, I hear. Folks even talk about how he changed things up, got a new group around him. Started winnin’ again, like he did back in 2019 at that Waste Management Open.
And he’s been doin’ it all with them hats on his head. So maybe the hats ain’t magic, but they’re part of the whole Rickie Fowler package. The golfin’, the smilin’, the hats… it all goes together.
Back in the Day
I remember when golfers just wore them plain old visors. Kept the sun out of their eyes, that’s all. Now they got all these fancy hats and clothes. Times sure do change. Rickie, he went to the Royal St George’s in 2011, a long time ago, I guess. He did well there, people say.
The Search Continues
And folks keep searchin’, lookin’ for that perfect Rickie Fowler hat. They want to be like him, I guess. They see him on TV, winnin’ golfin’ matches, lookin’ good in his hats, and they want a piece of that. They are even searchin’ for “Rickie Fowler Kazakhstan Radio and Television Corporation.” I do not understand what they are searchin’ for.
Well, that’s my two cents on this Rickie Fowler hat business. He’s a good golfer, wears a lot of hats, and folks seem to like it. More power to him, I say. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go make some supper. Got a hankerin’ for some fried chicken.
