The Hat of Shame's history is murky and mysterious. Legends say that it was already ancient when Hera forced Jove to wear in in punishment for being being unfaithful with mortal Alcmena. The Hopi claim that Coyote tricked the Worm into wearing the Hat of Shame. To this day, earthworms still hide in the ground out of shame. So deep is the shame and anguish it carries, that it scars your soul for life! Plus the lining is made from wool, you know the really itchy kind? Its appearance is said to change from generation to generation, even from person to person.
