Did the guys by any chance attend a Buster Keaton film festival?
Keaton was said to have claimed to have gone through over 1000 of his trademark Pork Pie hats during his career. Lost or damaged while filming, stolen by Fans, loaned and not returned by various people, etc.

The first rule of romance is the ability to make a lady laugh. You both still have it. It works, lads – it works.

No more of the alter ego nonsense for Rose, If Jimbo can’t wear his hat. Fair is fair.

Fedoras look much better than porkpies. (Guess what kind of hat I have.)

This time of the year it should be a German Alpine hat for Oktoberfest.

Pork pie hat… Does it come with a snack?

Tom Waits wears a porkpie hat, and folks don’t come much cooler than him. I’d say that Jimbo and Corky are in good company.

Another silly hipster fad. These hats belong to the 1930 and 1940s.

My first and only cultural reference to that particular headwear is Joe Jackson’s I’m the Man.
“Right nowI think I’m gonna plan a new trend
Because the line on the graph’s getting low
And we can’t have that
And you think you’re immune
But I can sell you anything
Anything from a thin safety pinTo a pork pie hat”

Big deal; I have a fedora, a derby, a beret and a straw boater which I wear at different times of year.

I always wondered what a porkpie hat looked like. Maybe it would look better if Jimbo and Corky were wearing vintage clothes.
