Where It All Began:
“I got my first fitted cap in 1989, a California Angels On-Field. My father bought it for me as a birthday gift. I still have it, even though it’s too small to wear. It stays in a special case. Now I have just over 900 caps. It’s been amazing to see the fitted community grow into the large family it is today. I can remember when I first reached out via social media, finally finding a few people who were as passionate about collecting as I am. It’s not the size of the collection that matters, but the size of the passion a person has for their collection. I think most of us collectors understand and respect this. It’s a community I’m proud to be a part of.”

Favorite Hat:
“I don’t really have a “favorite” cap, but a large part of my collection is made up of Minor League baseball caps. I also love vintage NHL caps.”

Represent everyone’s favorite water boy in this awesome replica of Bobby Boucher’s jersey.
Inspired by the 1992 movie, “Mighty Ducks”. This Goldberg jersey will have any fan shouting “Quack! Quack! Quack!”
