* Of the nine classes in Team Fortress 2, the Ellis' Cap seems to look very fitting on the [[Engineer]], for he too is considered a mechanic and holds a Southern accent like Ellis does, and the [[Scout]], who holds the youngest age in the game as well as simply pulling off the look well on his own.
 
 
* Ellis' Cap ironically was used as a special DLC promotion that revolves around Bill, and not Ellis himself. This somewhat goes hand in hand with the fact that [[Bill's Hat]] was awarded as a special gift for those who pre-ordered Left 4 Dead 2, yet the promotion had nothing to do with Bill.

Ellis' Cap is a promotional headwear item. The hat features a tow truck design on it, it is a reference to the hat worn by Ellis, a character from Valve's zombie shooter franchise, Template:W. In Left 4 Dead 2, Ellis' Cap is actually navy blue. This is the second Left 4 Dead related hat in Team Fortress 2 that is available for all classes, the first being Bill's Hat.

If you purchased Left 4 Dead 2 from a retail store, you could still obtain the Ellis' Cap and Frying Pan as long as the game was linked to your Steam account. According to "Sacrifice: TF2 Items" on the Left 4 Dead Blog, anyone who owned Left 4 Dead 2 prior to the announcement would receive the item within a few days of the initial release.
