What's the most common comment?
Inspired by a response from Canada Jones's thread...
I most often just get "nice hat" complements, but I don't actually have any Indy hats yet, just the usual collection of vintage Stetsons and such. I may get more Indy comments once my AB arrives.

hat
Most of the time I get the " nice hat" but I also get " nice cowboy hat" or "nice top hat."

I broke up with a girlfriend cuz she said my dorfman was better than my AB...indy89 wrote:Not to sound mean, but if a random person ever told me that my hat was stupid, you bet they would get one big punch in the face. Who's with me?!
while excavating in poland a guy from a polish newspaper came to the site and when he saw me he was really excited he didnt speak any english but he insisted that I come see his cell fone... he then had someone call him so it played the "raiders march" which was his ringtone...
last night I was leaving the dorm and a friedn of mine (who was a bit tipsy) comented: "Oh yeah that's where I put indiana jones's clothes"

I got the same comment a couple of years ago while at a cafe. A little kid next to us, asked his mom, "mom, is that a REAL cowboy?"I love it though when a little kid tugs on his mum's skirt telling her that he just saw a cowboy.
I have not had an Indy comment for several years now, but fully expect ALL of us will be getting them more often once the new film is out. And I doubt you will have to be wearing a fedora to get this response either. Any brimmed hat will do. I guess we could all put a big feather in our hats and then not have to worry about the Indy comments, if bothered by them. But, I think I would rather be referred to an Indy, rather than a pimp!
For me personally, I don't care how many Indy comments I get. I have a great "out" now. I will just say, "I made the last film hats, and I am adverstising them'. The rest of you guys can say, " my friend made the film hats, and he gave me one! Since most just paid for the price of materials, this would NOT be far from the truth. Fedora
I get everything from "nice hat" to "Indy" to "Cowboy". It's been 2 days in a row now that I have received the "Cowboy" comment. These comments were from children though which is where I get most of the "Cowboy" comments from. Adults usually say "nice hat" or "Indy". I do agree with Fedora that once the movie is released there will be quite a few "Indy" comments coming.

ever see that scene in 'road to perdition' when tom hanks is walking on a sidewalk in chicago and EVERYONE is wear a fedora. i thought it was pretty cool myself.
i usually get very complimentary remarks about the lid and i enjoy everyone of them
as a sidenote, a co-worker of mine insists that he needs to find me a real hat (in saying that, he means a cowboy hat)......if he only knew how 'top shelf' my steve delk hat is...........it would put to shame any cowboy hat you could find around these parts, ### gum garinteeya y'all!!!
