Why are Yankees hats so popular all over the world? I've

>>77377202
People associate it with New York City in general I guess

>>77377202
Fashion/pop culture

>>77377202
Most successful sports franchise in the world. Also, along with London, New York is the top global city in the world.

>>77377202
>Pop culture figures wear it
>symbol of New York
>Most successful American team

brand power

Real Madrid of the USA

It's the finals-loser shirts being shipped to africa situation, except every season
They buy all the roiders and built a super meme midget stadium for them to hit dingers in, so they expect a WS every year, and when they fall short they have all this bandwagon clothing to get rid of

You know how teams prepare celebration merchandise and other contingencies right before a championship game (AKA French painting their bus in anticipation of a Euro 2016 win)?

Now remember how they tend to ship these off to third world nations the moment the team loses? Yeah, this is why there are Yankee hats everywhere.

But tbeh, the non-butthurt Red Sox fan answer is that the NY hat is globally iconic. Between music, movies, celebrities, it's been given an extreme amount of mass exposure, so this is why you'll find random fucks in the most remote part of places like Quedlinburg, Germany and Dalian, China wearing Yankee hats. (I mention those two because I saw it happening in person.)

Good good, let the butthurt flow through you.

Culture of adopting American shit then claiming Americans have no culture

Global brand
Nowadays outside of NY it's a telltale sign that you don't watch baseball

I'm going to Europe next month and I'm from Brooklyn. I'm gonna grill any mother fuckers I see in a yankee cap

>>77382673
Bruh, NY niggas are no longer as thug as they used to be. Nowadays the only dudes with that sort of credibility are from Chicago.

>>77383168
Not only was he not talking about shit like that you pasty wigger faggot, but listening to chief keef and shitty drill doesn't mean you know anything, baltimore and atlanta are far worse than shitcongo

>>77377202
cuz we the best

everybody else just fighting for second

>>77377202
Japan too.
>>77377344
This, but also a more popular logo than the Mets one.

>>77383168
>>77383239
>what is Detroit

It just means "New York" to us. Most people don't even know it's the Yankees. You also see a lot of fake "NY" caps.

>>77383239
Atlanta isn't that bad, try CLE and STL

>>77378183
who's the Barca of USA then?

>>77383390
Mets are losers. Only real New Yorkers are fans.

>>77383239
>Let me tell you about your country

Foreigners tend to be such dorks when try to act savvy.

>>77377202
People associate the logo with New York City, not specifically the Yankees. Outside of the US, Canada, Japan, Mexico, and the Caribbean, I don't think anyone even knows who the New York Yankees are.

>>77385900
Boston, obviously.

>>77383239
i lived in atlanta there's a lot of niggers there but it's not so bad

>>77383239
Atlanta isn't actually that bad. You're right that Baltimore is way worse than Chicago though. In general, the Holy Pantheon of Awful Major US Cities is:

>Detroit
>St. Louis
>New Orleans
>Oakland
>Baltimore

All are more dangerous than Chicago, but Chicago gets the Murder Capital title because it has more people than any of those two cities combined people don't know the difference between murder rates and homicide totals.

>>77383239
>Baltimore and ATL are far worse
No they arent.. Oh, I saw the flag.

those types of hats are just synonymous with the Yankees.

>>77391760
Baltimore is really terrible.

https://www.neighborhoodscout.com/blog/highest-murder-rate-cities

1. East St. Louis
2. Chester
3. Gary
4. St. Louis
5. Baltimore

Respect to St. Louis for managing to appear on this list twice.

>>77391792
In absolute terms, no. However ill agree that Chicago is extremely exaggerated, especially since all the crime is densely concentrated in one part of the whole city, and the rest of it is actually totally uneventful.

>>77391709
do white girls date them? or girls in such places are more racist than cali/nyc girls?

>>77392097
People overwhelmingly stick to their own races. That's why only 1% of the US population is mixed race (mulatto or hapa, not counting mexicans since they're mixed by default). The fearmongering you see on twitter from insecure white guys and insecure black girls about white female/black male relationships is mostly just that.

Yankees stadium is a fucking embarrassment though.
Literally the worst part about my gimmicky tourist trip to New York was sitting at that ugly chamber of farts

>>77392097
Interracial relationships don't really occur except for in porno. People here are just DAMAGED tier and watch 40 minutes of porn a day
You just notice interracial relationships because it's both rare and taboo and you're like "wtf?!?!" forgetting about the 100 normal couples you just walked past

>>77392185
It's pretty nice, nowhere near as great as the old one though. Part of the problem is how much of the stadium is catering to the corporate crowd. Why the fuck do we need a sushi restaurant at a fucking baseball stadium? If you want to sip sake and watch baseball on tv just do it at home.

>>77392234
This. I'm mixed myself (half white/half black) and I've only ever met one other mixed guy in my life, some half-chinese half-jewish kid from Boston.

I didn't even know it's a Yankees hat, thought it was just some sk8ter boi brand, lel

>>77392185
>tourist trip to NY
I still find it highly amusing that we memed the whole world into thinking that some overconstructed, concrete filled shithole is somehow a tourist destination. That NYC is one of the most visited tourist cities globally is hilarious.

>>77392266
This.
People also don't always associate it with New York. They just think it kind of looks cool and all their favorite Rappers are wearing hats like this.

>>77392297
It's objectively an insanely important city, I can see the appeal. All the Hollywood movies and music coming out of New York only increases that appeal.

>>77392266

do you even /sp/

i knew it was a yankees hat when I was like 10

>>77392323
No, its an economic hub, a major media hub and a veritable cultural icon of a city.

Its still a crowded, overpriced, and noisy place with rather little to offer any serious sightseer. Dont get me wrong, im not bothered by that as it means there are way less retarded foreigners filling up our genuinely great tourist destinations, its still funny that idiots will come all the way from China just to stare at concrete buildings.

Because of US imperialism
