Bill's Hat is a headwear item available to all classes. It appears as a slightly worn brown colored veteran's beret for RED or gray colored beret for BLU, both with a yellow shield insignia. It was awarded to players who pre-ordered the Valve title Left 4 Dead 2 on Steam or for PC through Gamestop.
Trivia
- Bill's Hat appears in the backpack as a 'Level 10 Veteran's Beret'.
- This is the same hat that zombie apocalypse survivor Bill Overbeck wears in the original Left 4 Dead, rendered to the Team Fortress 2 art style.
- Bill's Hat has its own intricate back-story, which reads as follows: "While conducting a science experiment on parallel dimensions, Bill's Hat fell off a table into the Team Fortress universe."
- The logo on the hat is not exactly correct to the original in Left 4 Dead.
- Although Bill wears a green beret, the hat is either brown or gray depending on the wearer's team.
- The magazine cover Hat-Wearing Man seen on the Sniper vs Spy Update published an article titled "Wearing Berets: Not on our Watch! How You Can Help...". It seems the teams didn't take their suggestions to heart.
- Similarly to other promotional and holiday-related hats, Bill's Hat cannot be crafted with another to form a new item.
- This hat was the second item to be released which could only be acquired within a specific time, including the Cheater's Lament, the Sam and Max items, the Gentle Manne's Service Medal, the 119th Update medals, the Earbuds, and the Lumbricus Lid. Of these, it is one of the few eligible for Trading.
