That's what I heard, yeah. Don't remember where though.

And yeah, Richie's hat(s) is/are more of a fedora style anyway. :/ Why anyone would equate that with a Stetson, I have no idea...

*shakes head* it's a shame, really, because honestly, they made it all the way through the 'big hair' 80's with all those colorful clothes (that earned a lot more snide 'gay' remarks from folks than that hat ever did. I mean, 'cmon...Jon with his lavendar leather pants? And hairspray and mousse products from hell? Yeah.) without having identity problems. :/
