The [ classified ], known better as the Potato Hat, is a promotional headwear item for all classes. It is a white hard hat with a potato-powered miner's light with a team-colored glow, connected by two orange wires with team-colored connector insulation. The far side of the hat sports black electrical tape covering a white circular logo. The team coloring of the hat is not the typical RED and BLU colouring, but closer to the light-blue and orange seen on the portals in the eponymous Portal.
This hat is awarded after April 5, 2011 to players who had bought the Potato Sack pack, or had owned all the games from the pack, on Steam. They appear to still be available, however it is unkown to when they will stop being awarded.
The games contained within the pack consist of 1... 2... 3... KICK IT! (Drop That Beat Like an Ugly Baby), Template:W, Template:W, Template:W, Template:W, Cogs, Template:W, Killing Floor, RUSH, Template:W, Template:W, The Wonderful End of the World, and Template:W.
