Dude, this is just like Team Fortress 2!

Ellis' Cap is an unlockable 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.

Obtaining

Beginning October 6, 2010, Ellis' Cap, along with the Frying Pan, was awarded to anyone who purchased Left 4 Dead 2 before Thursday, October 7, 2010, 4pm Template:W, as well as to anyone who had already purchased the game. 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 their 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.

There are reports that recent buyers of Left 4 Dead 2 still receive Ellis' Cap and the Frying Pan. Currently, many players are receiving Ellis' Cap and the Frying Pan as a purchased item, making them non-craftable and non-tradable items. This is most likely a bug due to the October 12th patch notes, which says Valve made the Ellis' Cap and Frying pan tradable.
