Last night, joined at the communal table for our sodium laced journey into quasi- Japanese cuisine, were two young men on opposite ends of the table. One fellow, an obvious fishing aficionado, had a Bass Pro baseball style cap. Seated at the other end was a hip hop fan, black on black New York Yankees hat cocked at just the right angle for the stir fried comedy routine. Am I losing it, or do guys remove their hats when seated for dinner?

"Gentlemen" remove their hats when seated for dinner--there's a difference.

They had probably just come from a wedding where the bridesmaids all chewed gum during the ceremony.

At my mother's table you had 30 seconds to remove your hat or it would get removed for you w/ a swing of Papa Scooterbug's arm! Same went for your elbows.
Grandma doesn't accept jeans as suitable clothing unless you are doing yardwork (which means you are eating on the porch), so hats have never been an issue for her.

Was it perhaps Les Miles and an LSU football recruit? He's known for the "mad hatter" look at all times.

Hat removal has become the exception.
