Purdue Retro "Boilers" Snapback Hat
Purdue earned the nickname “Boilermakers” when the football team allegedly played actual boilermakers on the field in a game against Wabash College in 1891. The trains that brought Purdue football to their various away games soon became known as “Boilermaker specials,” since the trains operated outside of usual train timetables just for the team. Nowadays, the nickname is shortened to "Boilers," as featured on this retro snapback.
