Notice a fan in a pink hat sitting behind home plate at Wrigley Field? That’s Jim Anixter—he’s been seated there since 1966.
A recent guest on Fox 32 in Chicago, Anixter explained that he first started wearing a pink hat at the 1990 All-Star Game, when it was a free giveaway. He then continued wearing it and got “Pink Hat Guy” trademarked and slapped it on a hat of his own.
He says he’s popular around the area.

Glad we’ve got Pink Hat Guy behind home plate for the series instead of Marlins Man.
