Wow... never heard of anything like that before.
I dont think there is anything against the rules as to what the guy was wearing, but it does seem to be in bad taste to wear something with the intention of distracting other players.
Probably bad etiquette, but not against the rules. If this was a "for fun" tournament in a league event, I might let it go. If this was "for real" where there was a good sized payout, I probably would have done the same thing and at least inquired with the tournament director as to whether or not you could get him to remove the hat.
Either way, its just tacky. |
