Why are cowboy hats dented on top?

Answer 1

Makes it easier for the wearer to grab it to remove it quickly.

Answer 2

The cowboy hat was a regular and necessary part of the cowman's daily wear. The wide brim made quick work of fanning a fire. It could be used to whip a horse, wave to distant riders, and yes, even lend an air of grace and prestige to the man beneath its brim. And, of course, during inclement weather, the cowboy hat served as a very effective umbrella or sunscreen.


In addition, there came to be a kind of code to the particular style, shape, and size of the cowboy hat. While it remained a universal image of the American West, certain nuances in shape, size, and style provided specific information of the wearer's background and geographic base. With a subtle adjustment to the brim and a couple of extra dents in the crown, a man could indicate that he was from the northern regions of Nevada or the rough plains of Texas, the wind-whipped ranges of the Rockies or the low deserts of New Mexico.

Answer 3

only a custom ingredient. Like certain segements of human beings insist on wearing outsized ball caps became each which way. The black cowbody hats do not look close to as stupid as this American style so be grateful. Mexican dudes have their own style thats for confident. yet at the same time as a white American i could say that i could quicker seem as if a Mexican cowboy over an American cockroach.

Level 1

Last week, we took some friends out to a new restaurant, and noticed that the waiter who took our order carried a spoon in his shirt pocket. It seemed a little strange, but I ignored it. However, when the busboy brought out water and utensils, I noticed he also had a spoon in his shirt pocket, then looked around the room and saw that all the staff had spoons in their pockets.

When the waiter came back to serve our soup I asked, "Why the spoon?"

"Well," he explained, "the restaurant's owners hired Anderson Consulting, experts in efficiency, in order to revamp all our processes. After several months of statistical analysis, they concluded that customers drop their spoons 73.84 percent more often than any other utensil. This represents a drop frequency of approximately 3 spoons per table per hour. If our personnel is prepared to deal with that contingency,we can reduce the number of trips back to the kitchen and save 15 man-hours per shift."

As luck would have it I dropped my spoon and he was able to replace it with his spare spoon.

"I'll get another spoon next time I go to the kitchen instead of making an extra trip to get it right now." I was rather impressed.

The waiter served our main course and I continued to look around. I then noticed that there was a very thin string hanging out of the waiter's fly. Looking around, I noticed that all the waiters had the same string hanging from their flies. My curiosity got the better of me and before he walked off, I asked the waiter, "Excuse me, but can you tell me why you have that string right there?"

"Oh, certainly!" he answered, lowering his voice. "Not everyone is as observant as you. That consulting firm I mentioned also found out that we can save time in the restroom."

"How so?"

"See," he continued, "by tying this string to the tip of you know what, we can pull it out over the urinal without touching it and that way eliminate the need to wash the hands, shortening the time spent in the restroom by 76.39 percent."

"Okay, that makes sense, but . . . if the string helps you get it out, how do you put it back in?"

"Well," he whispered, lowering his voice even further, "I don't know about the others, but I use the spoon."

To keep them piched onto the head so they dont fly off in cowboy like circumstances. (Bullriding, horseback, hot freaky circus sex in the barn) Also for aero dynamics..lol

Answer 6

easier to grab and tip at a fellow cowboy or girl ?

To catch the rain water so they can drink or share with their horse. Sounds good to me.

To conform to the heads that wear them.

(I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist. That was such a perfect set-up line!)

Answer 9

Maybe it collects rainwater and keeps their heads cool. Just guessing.

So the brains don't fall out of your head.
