Wearing Mouse Ears Outside Of Disney

[KRT]

Where I live (1000 miles from Disney World) I always see people wearing Disney shirts or caps, but yesterday was a first. There was a man in line at the supermarket wearing mouse ears.

Was he, perchance, buying even more alcohol…?!

This guy just sounds like he's ahead of the curve.

Mouse ears included, there is never a bad time nor place to be properly hatted.

Now, if you had said a child or teenager I can almost get it... but a man... hmmm

Maybe he was a Furry?

We live 1400 + miles from WDW . If I showed up anywhere wearing mouse ears ( outside of a halloween party) I’d be grabbed by the authorities and put in the loony bin. T here’s all kinds of strange clothing types around but I’ve never seen mouse ears worn anywhere in my area.
Maybe he just returned from a trip and was still feeling the Dis after glow!!!

Or he forgot he still had them on.

I see no problem with wearing mouse ears anywhere you want if you're so inclined and adventurous. Is it any different than wearing a trucker's hat with your favorite team's logo?

If you shop wear the locals shop in Central Florida you may find some cast still in costume buying groceries.

Were they actually Mickey ears? Or more of a 'furry' style hat/headband?

I have Disney hats and shirts that I will wear in public. Ears are unusual, but not a whole lot different.

I respect appropriate IDGAF attitudes. Emphasis on appropriate. Obscene tattoos and profanity-laced t-shirts are not appropriate.

This is normally where I would throw in...

It's no weirder than adults going to WDW without kids!

Unless it's a party or maybe some kind of town festival, it's probably a "no." For example, I might wear a Mickey Santa hat during my city's annual Winter Festival. It's part of the festive mood. Otherwise, no.

Oh sure, a baseball cap and/or a t-shirt are fine. Mickey Ears? Um, no. If I dared to wear Mickey ears at all it would be a Mickey Ear Hat, not an Ear Band. Goodness no.

People wear t-shirts from Disney parks everywhere. I guess mouse ears are seen as weird for, reasons?

That stuffs too expensive to exist solely as theme park attire.

Truckers hats and ball caps are the norm. Disney mouse ears are not. Caps with team logos are seen everywhere. Someone that many miles away from a Dis park wearing ears stands way outside what is expected as an adult.

So I take it I'm the only one that wears the Mickey hands when not at the parks?
