My sister-in-Law drew my name in the Christmas draw last year and as we are just over our X-Mas party I managed to survey just what the heck she got me. Well, its turns out its a God-awful hat, a soccer hat at that! It is white and in the shape of a soccer ball with nets on three sides and the word GOAL written across the front. She expects me to wear this when I got to soccer games here but she is in for a shock as I am issuing a challenge to YBIG members. I want this hat to see the world and so I will post it, free of charge, to anyone who will have the balls to wear it during a match, any match. The only condition is that you must be photographed at the stadium wearing the hat and it be posted on the YBIG site then pass it on to someone else. You can even decorate it with something from the game if you like. So are there any takers? I plan to print out any photos for next year and present then to my sister-in-law next Christmas.
BE WARNED. IT IS A GOD-AWFUL HAT!!!  ------------- There are friendlier places to drink. |

thats a great call Donal! The hat will go everywhere in the world now. Might bring it on my honeymoon! To get the ball rolling how about you take a photo of yourself at a game and then post it up here and next person will take on the mission? Could dedicate a slot to it each issue to see where its been. Quality stuff Donal  -------------

Okay, boys, its in the post tommorrow. My wife is working today but I told her what I wanted and she is taking a photo of me in the local soccer park wearing the hat and then it is on its way. I might even get a few photos of my sister-in-law with the offending thing at Christmas and one or two others.

Went to the post office...sorry, mail ofiice.....and posted the hat off to Ireland. The girl behind the counter asked me what was in the box for customs and what was its value. I said "A ha". "What?". "A ha". She didn't seem to understand what a ha was so I put on my best Canadian accent and said "A hat, eh!" She put some postage on the box, told me to FO and there I left it. It should be in Ireland in a week. ------------- There are friendlier places to drink. |

this will have to become a sticky so we can keep track of where its going lads. Heres Donals start of the story....Page one THE STORY OF THE HAT
The Joelson family Christmas is
always a highlight for the family but because of work commitments and the
distances involved it is not held on Christmas Day but rather in the middle of
January.
Every year, everyone draws a
name and whichever name you pick you have to buy them a $40 gift and make them
something. In 2007, Tracy Souch drew her brother-in-law, Donal Cullen and the
home-made "something" was to be a hat.
So, you begin your search and
this led Tracy to some thrift stores where this hat shone like a beacon to her
beadie little eyes with the logic Donal Likes soccer. It is a soccer hat. Donal
will like that. She also picked up a soccer ceiling fan and a soccer game all
for the princely sum of $40.
Come January, and amid a flurry
of flying Christmas paper, Donal was greeted with the sight of this hat which
immediately caused amusement among the 20+ people present. Photos were taken and
promises made that it would be worn at soccer games in the future.
Now, Mr. Cullen was careful not
to point out by whom said hat would be worn at soccer games and when he chanced
upon the Youboysingreen forum it was like a beacon on light for
him.
Unfortunately, the day he was to
send this off to Ireland an ice storm fell on Brantford so his proposed move to
have it photographed at a soccer ground, a snow covered soccer ground at that,
went to nought but in the spirit of the hat he decided to pass it
on.
There were two volunteers for
the hats debut, Eric Collins and Gary Malone, and it was to Gary Malone that it
was sent as he would be the first to wear it at a soccer/football
ground.
So it is to Gary that the hat
passes.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Take the hat to a
stadium.
2. Put it on your
head.
3. Get someone to take a photo
(or even a video0 of hat wearer (with hat on!)
4. Pass it on.
5. That's it.
THE JOURNEY.
17 January 2008
Hat makes its debut at Joelson
family Christmas
6 February 2008
Hat departs from Brantford,
Ontario, Canada on its way to Gary Malone
THE STORY
CONTINUES...... -------------

what about a rule that there has to be some irish connection no matter how vague? eg Blokes surname on the team is Dublin or the coaches burds name is Clare, or what-ever, just has to be something to go along with the story!

This is a legend of an idea. I'm trying to think if it should be for Ireland games only or any footie game. There are 3 vital rules to wearing the hat: Number 1 and most importantly, the hat is more important than your passport, keep it with you at all times, regardless of how much gargle is on board, you must bring the hat home. 2. and almost as important is taking the photo, without the photo, the whole idea goe's out the window. And 3, which I think is a wonderful idea, stick a pin badge on the hat of the home team of whereever you wear the hat, it'll cost you less than a fiver and it would add to the effect. This is an absolute legend of an idea, lets make it work... It will be all over the telly and papers.... Classic.

Hay, as long as it doesn't end up back here, Count, I am happy. If it does get lost then the person who loses it should replace it with something more........better???? Also, it should be personalised maybe with a YBIG written on the front. Also, how about a YBIG shirt for the person who gets Hunty to wear it (and no computer generated images either!). ------------- There are friendlier places to drink. |

Okay, I'll e-mail the photo to YBIG and you'll have an idea of what to expect. I was only thinking that it should have been personalised with YBIG before I sent it but thats up to whoever has it.

GerKeano is on the case on that one but I reckon we'll get pics of a load of the team in georgia and montenegro when they are just walking around town! I reckon getting trappa in it would be the holy grail of all pics! 
By the way Donal, while you are in Canada this is the type of quality TV you are missing out on... http://www.itv.com/Entertainment/reality/iacgmooh/Thecelebrities/ChrisBiggins/default.html - http://www.itv.com/Entertainment/reality/iacgmooh/Thecelebrities/ChrisBiggins/default.html -------------

Count, we have over 100 stations over here and you just rry finding anything other then crap on TV! Reality shows, dire soaps and quiz shows and, worst of all, entertainment shows. No wonder I watch DVD's when I can.
But, Holy Man, I thought Christopher Biggins was dead!
