    Pat Vidan, seen here with Harlan Fengler and A.J. Foyt, is auditioning to be the new leader of Men Without Hats.

    Let's see....
    AJ is in the wrong color hat (should be white) , Fengler should wear anything but those stupid hats he wore, and Vidan....
    Couldn't wear one because he jumped so much while waiving the flags...

    Who gave Fengler the red hat so he could be seen in the pits?

    This photo is apparently from 1969, but I can only imagine what the British Invasion drivers thought when they were greeted a few years earlier by this "welcoming party".

    This was not a caption for the picture. This is a legitimate question. I read in an old racing book who gave him the hat so he would be seen easier. I think it was a driver,but I can't remember who.
