Even if they never played basketball, they will still wear the basketball cap where ever they go.

Basketball is played indoors, so isn't it appropriate to wear a basketball cap inside?

One thing I noticed when I was posted to the US in 1978, was that most males wore baseball hats, and keep them on when eating a meal in either their home or in restaurants. Having come from being used to see men in Australia always remove their hats when going indoors, it was the start of the learning process about the US customs. It would appear the these times are gone forever. like many other customs and mannerisms.

My husband had significant brain surgery lovely long incisions and such like , there was also a large indentation which was very unpleasant post surgery . He wore his hat in a coffee shop. A man older than him had a go at him. Husband (the placid and calm man out ) took off his akubra and asked the man how he was , because the man absolutely went white and was horrified. He and his wife left the coffee shop. Husband then put his hat back on. It wasn't fine dining, or an rsl just a basic coffee shop in a shopping centre .

My husband wanted to go out

Edited to ask : @bussyboy why is my post cause for laughter ? Just curious ?

No one cares about wearing hats in doors these days.
Even where there is no sun.

Real chic.

Hat’s off to you for stirring the pot.

100%. I had surgery (twice) on my head and it certainly wasn't a pretty sight with staples in it. I wore a hat indoors and out, including work, for quite some time. To hell with what anyone thought. You never know someone's circumstances. That said, I don't unnecessarily wear a hat at the dinner table or indoors generally. That's how I was brought up.

I do have to say my husband was brought up with no hats inside , but this was when he could finally safely leave home and go out and do something just regular . Mind you he did have a quiet chuckle over the other guy's horrified expression lol

I think this has been answered! Visualising the story told, your husband putting the other guy in his place!! No offence intended if taken!
