Received a cowboy hat today and did some reading on prior discussions here about cowboy hats here on SN. The question I can't seem to find an answer to is this.
What is the benefit of earning a cowboy hat before losing it?

Received a cowboy hat today and did some reading on prior discussions here about cowboy hats here on SN. The question I can't seem to find an answer to is this.

The benefit of earning a cowboy hat, you ask? They asked Sir Edmund Hillary why he climbed Everest.
His response:
Because it was there.
I think it was Mallory who gave that quote in 1924 when asked why he wanted to climb Everest….
Hilary’s best quote, given having successfully summited was; ‘we’ve knocked the bas**rd off..’
That’s hopefully the mountain and not Mallory…
Correct. But he died. Not inspirational
Definitely not inspirational.
But reminds me of a 1960s comedy sketch set during the Second World War between 2 Royal Air Force officers.
‘Aftermyth of the war’;
Peter Cook: I want you to lay down your life, Perkins. We need a futile gesture at this stage. It will raise the whole tone of the war. Get up in a crate, Perkins, pop over to Bremen, take a shufti, don't come back. Goodbye, Perkins. God, I wish I was going too.
Jonathan Miller: Goodbye, sir — or is it — au revoir?
Peter Cook: No, Perkins.
I knew you would point out the inaccuracy. I thought of Animal House.
The Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Leave him alone. He's on a roll.
That’s a great line. Belushi was taken too soon.
In the same vein from another British comedian in an episode of his show called ‘12 Angry Men’;
‘Does Magna Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain?
That brave Hungarian peasant girl who forced King John to sign the pledge at Runnymede and close the boozers at half past ten?
Is all this to be forgotten?’
You give me a lot to explore!

Absolutely using this gif in the future. GOLD!
It looks good on you. Do not lose it :)
It'll keep your head dry in the rain, keep the sun out of your eyes and make a fine fashion statement to potential sexual partners.
Seeing another user has a cowboy hat gives you a bit of confidence that they are a real person and that they are actually contributing rather then spamming.
Thanks everyone for the answers and entertainment. SN community is super dope!
It's to protect our hair... at least what's left of it lol
because you don't want to be someone without a cowboy hat
the primary benefit is protection from the elements on your long journey west, but as others have discovered, it also makes for a great fashion statement.
🤠
It's right there in the notification:
Howdy! I plan to HODL mine. Don’t loose yours partner!
Street cred
A cowboy is nothing without a cowboy hat. Take good care of it, and it will protect you from the sun, dust, and other elements on your journey.
