Green Bay Packers Knit Hats Hard to Find

In fact, the very same hat is selling on eBay for $150. NFLShop.com has them for sale but if you need them in time for Christmas, you’re out of luck. There’s a five to six week wait. Kate Hogan, the team’s director of retail ops said she hasn’t seen an item become this popular in years:

“There’s just a feel around not just the town, but the state and with Packers fans across the country, that they haven’t had in probably 10 years. It’s definitely exciting. It’s a great problem to have.”

The Packers are not alone. A few other teams have hard-to-find hats — like the New England Patriots who are on a four-to-five-week wait. Even the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills are in one-week-wait status. I was in the Bills Store by Ralph Wilson Stadium yesterday and I can tell you there is a whole stack of these Bills hats. So, keep looking around but please don’t spend $150 on eBay. For an $18 cap, that should be against the law.
