Always struck by how much more formally attired people were awhile ago. I remember as a kid, men would wear ties at baseball games.

Men and woman wore hats. President Kennedy started the decline of men wearing hats when he refused to wear one. It also killed the hat industry in Norwalk and Danbury,although I think Stetson still makes hats in Danbury.
 
Oh thank God! I was afraid someone would declare my era at UConn "vintage".
