Immortality Via Valve's Team Fortress 2 Hat-Describing Contest

Probably should have mentioned this yesterday, but such is life. Valve is running a fun little content wherein you get to DESCRIBE HATS~! in Team Fortress 2. The name of the contest? “The First Ever Hat Describing Contest.” Two thumbs up.

It really could not be simpler.

On Valve’s forums there’s a series of posts featuring various hats. You’re to take that hat, and come up with its backstory.

I’d come up with one right now, but I’ve just received a very important package that I have to attend to.

What can you possibly win here? Should your description win, Valve will actually use it on the game. That’s pretty neat, right?

Your words will forever live in the minds of Team Fortress 2 gamers!
