This photo is from a couple of weekends ago in Yosemite. A guy emailed it to me this morning while I was screaming my head off at Kots' ITPHR.

The first thing I noticed was my A's cap.

The background scenery is nice as well.

I probably wear an A's baseball cap 300 days out of the year.

It got me wondering where other AN'ers are showing the A's pride.
What do you wear/where do you wear it? Photos encouraged.

The Coliseum looked like Yosemite...

...before Mt. Davis? :)

I always wear my away hat

One of my professors was trying to remember my name so she told me I should wear my A's hat everyday to make it easier for her. I said not a problem.

no pics unfortunately, but Game 1 my manager (huge twins fan) asked me if I wanted to go because he had an extra ticket. Being the A's fan that I am I said I would definitely watch the A's beat Johan. I was there in all of my Green and Gold.

55,000 Twins fans and I saw about 10 A's fans.

My A's hat isn't even grean anymore

worn so much it's now a faded kind of kaki and sweat-salted color combination.

my roommate bought be a new one which is that nice A's hunter green but i had to give it away to my almost-an-A's-fan-but-still-on-the-fence buddy of mine for the last Saturday regular season home game. he's now solidly into the green and gold (just don't tell his Giants fan girlfriend).

Seeing lots of A's gear now

Went to the Alameda Trader Joe's last night and seemed like half the shoppers were wearing an A's cap or shirt. Lots of folks getting caught up in A's frenzy now.

When I lived in Alameda

during the '03 playoffs, I was wearing my Zito tee walking to Park St. (on Encinal) the day after the walk-off bunt game. Two different people yelled versions of "WHAT A FREAKIN' BUNT!!" at me from their passing cars during the 10 minute walk.

Part of it is probably

the uniform reason to wear your A's gear... I mean, we've had so many games lately that called for rallying spirits by donning the A's gear for the whole day... for instance, the past two days, any self-respecting A's fan who could get away with it was probably wearing their gear... telling the atmosphere and the populace in general, "Love dem A's!"
