The other day, I came across one of the most bizarre hats that I’d ever seen. I couldn’t work out why someone would choose to make it, let alone, wear it! But it had me wondering; What are some other strange, preposterous, and downright stupid hats? Well, I did some research and came up with a top 10 list. Some you will be familiar with, and some… well… you’ve probably never seen and never should see.

#10 - This, my friends, is the epitome of stupid. Embarrassingly enough, I actually have one of these. My brothers were so ‘kind’ as to buy me one as a souvenir from Dreamworld. Who on earth invented this?! And why does it need a helicopter propeller?

#9 - Why has this become the standard birthday hat? Don’t get me wrong, when there are party hats around, I’m the first to put one on. But I don’t understand the cone shaped design.

#8 - If you cannot see a thing when you’re wearing a hat, then it’s considered hazardous. The designer is a smart cookie though. Customers come and try on their feathery creations but they can’t see if it looks good on them. All they hear is, “you look beautiful, darling! The feathers bring out the colour of your… chin.”

#7 - Ah, the cheese hat. This man should not be leaving his house unless he’s going to a cheese festival. But you know what’s even better than this hat? The cheese bra!

#6 - I’ve always thought graduation hats were ridiculous, but this guy has heightened the absurdity. I also get the impression he thinks he’s all that. 10 points for having the guts to wear it!

#5 - I don’t know what’s going on here. Is she a member of Star Trek? I think it’s a pretty cool design for a physics symbol, but I’m not sure about a hat. Walking through doorways would be a bit of a mission.

#4 - I couldn’t decide what was sillier; the hotdog or the lobster. They both deserve 4th place.

#3 - Hmm… Pretty self explanatory, don’t you think?

#2 - This one cracks me up. I’m not sure where you’d wear this besides the Mardi Gras or a Wiggles concert. No, even at a Wiggles concert you’d get weird looks from 5 year olds. This may be one crazy-ass hat, but it makes me happy.

#1 - This was the hat that inspired me to write this post. Have a close look. It’s a miniature bathroom. Why a bathroom?! And if you have to use your head and an arm to hold up your hat, then I think this is considered the stupidest hat of all time.

Are there any that I’ve missed? I’m sure there are a tonne of insane hats out there. Oh! Don’t forget the rasta dreadlocks hat!

Big love,
