Someone actually knew what MolonLabe meant.

I went to lunch yesterday with my mother at Cracker Barrel. Our waitress was an older lady and after she took my order she asked me where I got my hat from. I always where my MolonLabe hat everywhere I go. She had a bit of an accent so I didn't understand her at first so I looked at my mom. Then the lady said to me that it is Old Greek and that she was greek. So she told me how to pronouce MolonLabe and she told my mom what it meant and where it comes from.

I thought that was the coolest thing. Everyone trys to pronouce it and everyone questions it but to have someone know what it means really shocked me.

[zahc]

I might be a little off but I think it's "Come and take them".

i came across a greek who knew what it meant as well last year. so far no one outside my family has asked me what it means though. kind of disappointing.

I'll run it by my father in-law. He was born and raised in Greece.

Corriea here at THR produces the hats as well as shirts, jackets and such.

PM him and see if he has any extra's. He just finished a run and usually does them every 3 to 4 months.

Well worth the money.

The 2 of the 3 barbers at the barber shop I go to (old timey...the guys have been working together for 27 years) are Greek. Now I want to wear my hat in there.
