10 Unique Hats You’ll Find at THON

What would THON fashion be without some fun head gear?

So far, most the hats of THON that we’ve seen have been creative and entertaining, and they somehow make committees and individuals stand out among the endless array of colorful t-shirts, tutus and props that fill the crowd.

Whether you sport them for your THON committee or see the advantage these caps hold for hiding/maintaining your sweaty (and soon to be unwashed hair) from all this dancing, your hats didn’t go unnoticed.

We’ve managed to catch some of the most creative and outlandish hats from THON participants out on the concourse.
