Throw hat away, place sticker on head.

We had a thread like this a year ago. I put all the responses in a table. Let me go find it.
Edit: From this thread Okay, it was only like 3 months. But that's how time goes on GAF.
Here were the results:

What about getting basically sucked off?

I believe that is the sticker off and don't bend it combo.
This is the only right answer.

I don't think I ever saw anyone with the sticker off and bend but I have to say it looks really dumb, if I were to ever buy one I would remove the sticker and bend it.
I usually put a few extra stickers on. My hat is so getting me laid!

Sticker off, bend the brim and no alternative. Facts only

I thought this sounded familiar
I think a lot of people do leave the stickers on their laptop.

Sticker off, bend.
then throw it in the trash. Don't wear a hat at all
I worked at Lids when I was 18, (8 years ago) and the only answer then would've been keep the sticker on, do NOT curve it.
Now, in a post-tiller world, I'ma go with curve it, take the sticker off... maybe don't even go with New Era at all tbh, there's alot of other brands that look better curved, or even look at some New Era hats aside from the 5950s.

That thread was not about a New Era though.

Take Sticker design, imprint it on new hat. Make sticker of old hat, put it on brim. Don't bend.

This was only discovered later. I believe the findings of the science still hold, at least directionally.
I believe that if the math was done again "Put it on your dick" would be returned on a similar number of responses. Of course, we could eliminate "buy a cowboy hat" as a potential response.

Sticker on with a very slight bend.

You're not a middle schooler whose peers are going to bully you if you don't wear your hat right. Do whatever you think looks good.

Sticker off and bend it, unless you want to look like an idiot.

Sticker off and bent. Other way looks real dumb.
Some of the high crown caps ensure you look like an idiot regardless of your brim game.

Sticker off and it's up to you if you want to bend the brim or not.
I usually bend the brim because all my New Era caps are fitted San Francisco Giants caps. Granted, I bend the brim on all my caps, especially my 5-panel Supreme caps.

OP don't listen to these old fools, they don't understand the new generation. Our generation. Not only should you leave the sticker on, you should buy replacement stickers for when the original starts to get old.

Yeah, I was gonna ask. Is it a brand?

Well it is basically serving the same purpose. Advertising that you are rich enough to have a brand new hat.
Don't be a sucker. Sticker off and bend it like a man.
