Rat Beenie Picture

Last week someone asked for a picture of a Rat Cap, which from my recollection we called them a Beenie. This is a picture of my beenie from 1966.

it and ran into alley. I started to run after him, then thought better of it. I went across street, and kept my eye on ally. After a few minutes, 3 thugs came out. I am glad I did not chase all the way in, as they were obviously going to mug me. No, they had no tech.gear on. However, stealing rival beanies was a big deal back then.

Here are two shots of my "Rat Hat" from 1965. I got caught leaving the dorm one time and Rat Court sentenced me to beat the drum in front of Thomas Greene statute for an hour. The drum was beaten continuously before the NC State game. My head has gotten a lot larger since those days or else I would have modeled it.

My date, future husband, was wearing his in Greenville and we were stopped for a red light downtown. Some guy ran to the car and snatched it. Date got out of car and chased him down to get it back. Success!
