History of the "Brockabrella: The collapsible rain hat was patented by Lou Brock ad Richard H Nielson in the late 1970s. Brock came up with the Brockabrella when he saw the idea from a fan who was weaeing one. He wanted to buy two for when the Cardinals played at Wrigley Field, where the fans would throw beer on the players during warm-ups. He then found a Korean manufacturer named Bing Woo, and they were not interested in just making two, but would make two gross (288). Lou ordered the two gross in a red-and-white color scheme. When they arrived he took two out one for himself and the other for Al Hrabosky, so the two could wear them at practice at Wrigley Field. Then a college team whose colors were red and white contacted Lou and asked if they could get some for their cheerleaders. Lou sent the team 24, and they wore them on national television. After that, requests came pouring in and Lou started a company, Brock World Products, to sell them. All items come from a smoke-free environment. We appreciate your support.
