Bill's Hat is a promotional headwear item for all classes. It is a slightly worn team-colored Template:W, with the yellow shield insignia, or "flash", of the Template:W. It is styled after the hat worn by the eponymous William "Bill" Overbeck in Left 4 Dead.
Bill's Hat was awarded to players who had pre-ordered the Valve title Left 4 Dead 2 on Steam or for PC through Template:W before November 17, 2009.
The hat description was written by Calvary for the Hat Describing Contest.

Bugs
- When equipped on the Soldier, this hat moves around on his head in the same way as the default helmet. This causes the hat to slide around on his head during certain taunts, such as the Shovel and the Director's Vision.
- A wrapped Bill's Hat will appear as "L4D Hat" on the gift's description thumbnail from within the sender's backpack.
Trivia
- Bill's Hat has its own intricate backstory: "While conducting a science experiment on parallel dimensions, Bill's Hat fell off a table into the Team Fortress universe."[1]
- The Template:W on the hat is that of the Template:W which is based out of Template:W which is near Valve's headquarters in Template:W.
