I know it's hot out but come on...

I saw a man today wearing a headband. Not a decorative Indian kind, but one that would gather the perspiration from his hair as to not sting his eyes with sweat. It was white, braided terry cloth with a snug velcro strap. This gentleman was not running, nor was he a runner-type who would be running later. He was eating a danish at Panera at 10 am. He did not do jumpingjacks to Panera nor was he clothed to take a jog around the parking lot when he was finished with his meal. He was reading a paper.
When was the last time you saw a headband?
I feel fairly certain there are only three people who can wear headbands: Nelly, Rasheed Wallace and Boris Becker (I left off Richard Simmons since i'm fairly certain it is surgically attached to his head, thereby not qualifying under the term 'wearing' ).

I too thought of the possibility of head surgery, but the band was thin and taught and there was no sign of indentation in his skull.

I own this exact headband you speak of.
