I would normally never make a post like this, but Iām increasingly desperate and running out of options.
If youāve seen this hat, PLEASE CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY!
I canāt tell you how much I love this Luigi hat, I got it at Otakon like fifteen years ago from someone in the artistās alley and Iāve had it ever since to the extent that itās become something of my trademark. Itās incredibly valuable to me, itās been with me through so much, and I pinned a lot of things to it that I never wanted to lose because I never thought Iād lose it! Especially that tiny handmade Samus hairclip I got in an art tradeā¦ and I also got the inside of it signed by Steve Purcell and Jeff Smith because I never thought in a million years Iād ever forget it somewhereā¦
But while I know I brought it with me on my last trip (since that last picture was taken while I was there), I canāt find any evidence that it made the trip back, and Iāve looked EVERYwhere. Iāve filed lost item reports with the airline, called each of the airports, gone to every place I can remember going to to ask if anyoneās seen it to no avail. Iāve tried so hard to take care of this hat over the years and Iām incredibly upset and mad at myself for losing something that means so much to me, itās like I lost a part of myself or my identity in a way as ridiculous as that sounds. So Iām hoping against hope that one of you out there might have seen it and can help me.
The airports I stopped in on my way back home were the Albuquerque airport in New Mexico, the San Jose airport in California, and the Burbank airport in California. If you live in those areas, or were in either of those airports around the beginning of November or anything like that, PLEASE keep an eye out for my hat! Itās hard to miss, as you can tell from these pictures. I remember eating at a place in the San Jose airport during a layover, it was near Gate 26 and served a blue cheese burger, but I canāt remember the name of the restaurant itself. Itās possible I might have left it there, or somewhere around there, or someone picked it up, or somethingā¦ I donāt know. I canāt remember anything more and I know how frustrating that is, believe me.
It doesnāt have any contact information in it or on it, but it DOES have two signatures on the inside in permanent marker, as mentioned above! Theyāre from Steve Purcell and Jeff Smith and are signed to Zar, so if you see the hat and all the pins are gone for some reason, youāll know itās my hat for sure by the signatures on the inside.
Please, if you see my hat somewhere, please let me know! Contact me any way you can! I just want it back so badly, and I actually need to wear hats when I go outside now because of a recent medical thing I donāt want to get into right now, and itās killing me that when I really need it, I lost it like an idiot. Please please please, if you can, please keep an eye out for it. And if thereās anyone you know that you think might have seen it, please show them this post. Iām hoping for a miracle here.
