my second best penguins cap

penguins in modern arena

I hate wearing my favorite Penguins hat to hockey games; it is an Old Varsity Gold (a yellow gold of character) fitted cap with the sleek Gary Adams logo from the 1990s; I know that logo isn't popular with the some die-hards but I dig it.

I can't wear my favorite cap because I have to anticipate the duty-bound prospect of tossing my cap for a hat trick; so I wear a cap with sentimental "old time" stitching (not unlike this hat) and the skating-penguin-logo in black and Las Vegas Gold, a gold of iniquity and dubious intent.

I always leave the arena a little disappointed if I manage to hold onto it.
