Trivia

• The beanie is often associated with "gang bangers" and youth criminals, most often in urban areas such as New York, Los Angeles, and Boston, where the Scout is from.
• This hat was submitted under the name of the "Rapper's Hat" before Valve renamed it the "Troublemaker's Tossle Cap".
• The item description "Straight outta control point." is an obvious reference to "Straight Outta Compton", an album by hip-hop group 'N.W.A'. Compton is a city in California that is infamous for gang-related activities, mainly by the Bloods and the Crips.
  • Interestingly enough, the colors red and blue are the associative colors of the Bloods and the Crips, respectively.
• Unlike other hats, when the Troublemaker's Tossle Cap is painted it simply gets one small and one big stripe in a similar style to the Tough Guy's Toque. This stripe is not visible without paint.
• Before the Mann-Conomy update, the Troublemaker's Tossle Cap looked like a cloth beanie. After the release, a shine effect was added that made the hat look like latex. However, this is merely a glitch due to the fact that both the hat's paint and phong shading use the same alpha channel.
• The hat description was written by spam_word.
