Why Do African Americans and Wannabe African Americans Leave Holograms On Their Hats?

[robmpink]

Sometimes even the tags. Could someone clarify?

[Philphan]

Hahaha this is great. Something we've allll been wondering

[acarmelo1]

to show that the merchandise is original and not a cheap copy.

We are talking about a $20 authentic mlb cap.

these things cost $35 now

Probably for similar reasons that bourgeois whites and all bourgie wannabes have to have the brand name of their clothes stamped all over them.

[SEAHAWKHARRY]

Its because theyvare so used to stealing crap that keeping the tags on is kinda the norm.

[19th Hole]

They are fascinated by shiny objects.

Yeah, but they don't keep the tags on or the size sticker.

[teddyd]

what amazes me is how people leave the manufacturer's tag on the sleeve of a suit or a topcoat nowadays. pretty dumb...

[robmpink]

$20 or $35 whatever. Does anyone know why? Also, can someone explain to me why 17 years or so ago african americans or african american wannabees wore one pant leg pulled up to their shin bone?

[robmpink]

I'm not a racist at all and just want to know why?

I dont know why the blacks started it. But to this day, white people still wear their pants like that.

1) Leave the tags on...If you need a forty oz. then you
can return the cap for cash.

2) 2 reasons...You can tell left from right.
Makes stealing bicycles much quicker.

Well Dad, can you kick the truth to the white middle aged youth as to why the pants thing is done?

[flyingillini]

I see it all the time as well. It makes no sense... I remember in the 80s when it was the same thing with tennis shoes, they would leave the tag still tied to the shoe laces... It's the white and hispanic kids out here as well, they all leave the tags on their hats... Looks dumb if you ask me.

[DBaseball23]

I always wondered this too. So what's the answer why?

[MarkDee]

The pant leg rolled up , was started so your pant would'nt get caught in the bike chain. Guess it cought on to a thug type thing in the 90's

[pico]

fancinating. get a gov grant to study this

[warriorfan707]

good question

[warriorfan707]

is it just my imagination or is the girl second from the bottom on fire

[757sFinest]

I can't answer the question about the hat tags but as far as the pants leg is concerned it meant that you had the work aka drugs, at least that's what it meant around the 757 in the early to mid 90's. Now it is just a stupid fashion.

[Landscaper]

Yo...

[tad0matic]

number one is so more people will notice them, very important to their basic character. number two is to show they paid full price, not a flea market item. kinda like minnie pearl with the price tag hanging from her "new" hat, although she did it as a joke. these people are fukcing stupid!

[drfunkmaster]

also why do they wear there pants to their knees.. is it cuz they cant afford a belt.. please somebody explain that to me...It does not look cool..

[Counterfeit Cash]

this topic....just....wow.

[Marv001]

It makes the hat stand out more. It's a fashion statement.

[EmpireMaker]

Representing Minnie Pearl

[DennisGreen]

I hate people who leave their hat holograms on it's just retarded. Also knockoff MLB hats from China come with the hologram on it as well so doesn't really show it's legit.

[Dutch]

To prove they're so fresh and so clean clean

[Killer_Demo]

its really idotic also...i take mine off as soon as i get it

[thespeculator]

kids being kids, every generation has something new, like the monster sideburns in the early 70's or the stupid mullet

[tunaguitar76]

they are poor.. maybe they want to be able to return it if they need some cash... i have no idea.

[dochall2u]

now this is a good question.We must have a reason.Then again,maybe not.
