When did the trend of wearing baseball caps with the bill to the side start? Hopefully wearing them the regular way be cool soon.
My 9 year old son's soccer team is coached by three 16 year olds, and all 3 wear their hats sideways. There are alot of teenagers that work with me where I work, and probably all the boys wear a sideways hat. They are nice kids (even though unfortunantly alot of them smoke) but I think this sideways hat thing is the stupidest trend of the decade.
When do you think this trend will end?

I'm thinking that this trend will end when people stop wearing baggy pants that drag on the ground, and stop saying "wit" when they mean "with"...

Well it's been going on since at least 1988 to my knowledge!

Kids comnonly wore the basic baseball cap, as we know it, no later than 1960 (my guess).
When I was a child in the '70s anybody ever the age of twenty wearing a baseball cap was probably a good ole boy. The baseball cap became part of the hip-hop garb in the '80s, which made them chic again. Then they never went away!
I don't look so hot in baseball caps, so I don't wear 'em!
;)

When I was growing up in the early '90s, the sideways hat thing was big, it's not just a thing of the '00s.

There's nothing it can do when kids say "here I'm".
I think trend comes and goes.
What was chic then, it's old fashioned now.
But some things will always be the same :
A hot chick with a chic hat
can make you rather mad
as you past her eyeshade
your heartbeats can fade
No matters where the peaks was.

Wearing the bill to the back stops the sun from tanning the neck.

My son who just turned 17 ALWAYS wears his hat sideways. I used to make him change it when he is with me, but I stopped. I figured since he likes to spend time with the family I'll let him wear his hat any way he likes, even though I don't like it. I just found out last week that he smokes, that bothers me, but other than that he's a nice polite kid so I have to respect the way he wears his hat ::) , even though I personally hate it.

Probably doubly unpretty if you were wearing a hat! :D
What's bad now is that they make baseball caps with the emblem off to the side so it can be on a person's head straight when they wear the bill turned to the side. :P
I wear hats. The bill is either straight in the front or straight in the back. I think it worn to the side looks silly.

Maybe that was the reason Joe cocker told her friend to leave her hat on. ::)
and you just know what it happened to the rest.
I guess maybe they both were in Ibiza for a little "confrontation". 8)
