SpinSheet Is Collecting Mount Gay Red Hat Tales and Photos
If you’re a sailor, you’ve seen one, worn one, earned one, traded one, or bought or sold one or two in your day… the famous Mount Gay Rum Red Hat you see in particular at sailboat racing events. Why are we sailors so attached to a simple baseball cap? Why can't we resist collecting new ones when we already have a LOT of them? You tell us!
We’d like to hear your Mount Gay Rum red hat stories. Did you meet one of your favorite people because they were wearing one? Did you do a man-overboard drill to save your favorite one? Have you found a fellow competitor from a beloved regatta in the airport because one of you wore the hat?
What’s your favorite red hat and why? Do you have the oldest, rattiest hat? We’d like to see a picture. Do you have an interesting, creative hat display area in your house? Show it to SpinSheet! Are you a hoarder with an impressive red hat stash? Take a pic and send it!
Last year, our Red Hat Madness-themed SpinSheet Happy Hour was a blast. Among our favorite stories was that of Keith and Tara Carew who convinced Mount Gay to give them 20 blank hats to be custom embroidered for their wedding! They won the prize. Will you win the 2021 Red Hat Madness prize?
Send your Red Hat photos and stories to [email protected] by Friday morning, December 3, at 10 a.m. Our happy hour will air on Facebook Live and YouTube from 5-6 p.m. Friday evening. Hope to see you there!
