Select your desired ears. Accessorize your hat. Get your name embroidered on the back. Then there's a link for more information, but it takes you to a list of special events that doesn't include any information. Has anyone done this or know what kind of variety of pieces-parts are available?

I'm thinking I *might* make myself a pair and wear them, depending if they fit on my fat head

Fair warning though, if I happen to see a pair of ears between now and then that just screams, "smedley" to me, you might end up with something in your mailbox.
