I’m not typically the recipient of hats or shirts or any other gear about my beloved University of Florida Gators. I typically buy my own tailored to my own taste. However, I did receive a hat at Christmas 2023 … and it was black with the Gators logo. Sorry! The colors of the Florida Gators are orange and blue, not black. Some folks think the black gear (especially uniforms for the football team) are “cool,” but it’s my opinion that looks like … well, to be succinct … crap. So, when the gift-giver said it could be exchanged for an orange hat, I took them up on the offer. Thank you very much! I got this shot of the hat at our home here in Naples, Fla., on Jan. 6, 2024.
