In what commentators are calling "the most inspired use of Make Up Your Own Holiday Day in recent memory," 34-year-old Tyler Rodriguez has created a sensation with his self-declared "CapFlag Appreciation Day" celebration.
"I was just standing at the bus stop with my USA CapFlags fluttering proudly from my favorite baseball cap when someone asked about them," Rodriguez explained. "When I mentioned it was Make Up Your Own Holiday Day, the words just came to me—today is also CapFlag Appreciation Day!"
What began as a casual conversation quickly spread to fellow commuters, with several snapping photos of Rodriguez's patriotic cap display. By lunchtime, his social media post about the impromptu holiday had garnered hundreds of shares, with friends and strangers alike posting their own CapFlags configurations.
"It's amazing how something so simple can bring people together," Rodriguez said, adjusting his cap as a gentle breeze made his flags dance. "Everyone's looking for ways to stand out and express themselves. These little flags just make it easier to start those conversations."
"I just know what looks good on a cap," he shrugged, as his perfectly positioned CapFlags caught the afternoon sunlight like victory banners.
