The Lakers tried to go full hipster in their most recent promotional giveaway. but they may have went a bit too far.
Everyone at Sunday’s game against the Kings at Staples Center received a fedora, which is an interesting sports-related gift. Normally we see traditional items such as bobbleheads, t-shirts, hats and mousepads — but the Lakers elected to go in a different direction.
Check out the fedora — in all its glory.
