My Dad's Bucket Hat Craze: One Man's Quest for Collegiate Headwear

Have you ever spent an entire day thinking about wanting something in your life?

When I moved into school, what my dad was most interested in wasn't the vast campus or the delicious food in the Dining Hall, but a bucket hat. Someone had left a bucket hat with the school's logo on a table in Ikenberry Dining Hall, and my dad kept searching for it. Eventually, we couldn't find anywhere on campus that sold it, but today, while walking down the street on my way to class, I spotted a similar hat.

Ta-da!

I asked my dad if he needed anything.

My dad was overjoyed. He said, “Buy it right away!! And don't forget to bring it home when you come!”

But suddenly I'm worried whether it will fit my dad's head, since he has a big head…

A sure thing is that my dad would really like it.
