Going From Plain Hat to Humorous Headgear
-
1
Pick a hat that's out of character.
A football helmet is not funny on a football player, but it could be funny if a cowboy was wearing it instead. The first step to humor is context, and wearing an out-of-context hat could get you a few laughs. -
2
Use color to make your hat crazy.
Nothing is funny about a plain white baseball hat. Making it colorful could be the first step towards making it funny, so don't be afraid to add some coloring to your cap. -

3
Use a joke.
One of the best ways to get your sense of humor across is to write one of your favorite jokes on your hat. Try writing the first half of the joke on the front of the hat while placing the punchline on the back. -
4
Add props.
Some of the funniest hats include jokes made not of words, but of items. Try to make your hat funny by adding different items to it, either with glue or some other adhesive. -
5
Be yourself.
Your sense of humor is what is going to make this hat funny, so make sure you stay true to your own ideas on jokes and humor. If you don't like it, and if you don't find it funny, you can't expect anyone else to find it funny.

Tips & Warnings
Know your audience. Your hat will only be funny if the people who see it get the joke.
Try not to be vulgar on your hat, especially since you'll be wearing it in public. Most people do not find vulgarity to be especially funny in an extremely public setting.
