50 Cent Loves Idaho Falls

Yes, you heard right.  The town I live in, the town with well over 90% whites, the town where Mormons rule.

50 Cent is reppin Idaho Falls.

In his new music video "Waiting For Tonight" you can see Mr. Cent sporting a hat from a local minor league baseball team, the Idaho Falls Chukars.

What's funny about it?  I bought the same exact hat for my 3yo son earlier this year.

And that's the only thing my son and 'fiddy' have in common.

Here's the music video:


And here's a screenshot from the video:


Yup yup, I.F. is in tha house.

It's a badass lookin bird, but I'd love to find out why he picked this hat.  Is it because it's a minor league team for the Royals?  Is he a KC fan?

Is it because it's an angry looking bird?

Is it a shout out to his peeps in Eastern Idaho?  All seven of us?

Either way, I found this extremely entertaining.

I'm wondering if it could be profitable... I may buy a few hats from the clubhouse and see if they have any value on ebay as 50 cent memorabilia?

Next up?  Pictures of Kanye West at Idaho's 'Famous Potatoes' museum.  If only...

    Hahaha. I'm sure it was for the 7 of you - most definitely.

    It's like in Chasing Amy when Alyssa is wearing a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey. I don't even like them, but it warms my heart every time I see it. It helps that she's cute too.

    That's really funny. Would he even be welcome in Idaho Falls or would they have a protest?
    That's all fitty and your son have in common? Your son hasn't been shot a baker's dozen times?

    I barely know any of the local stars where I live. I just attribute it to poor memory though.

    Haha you could make a big deal out of it and see if the minor league wants to sue over copyright likeness rights.

    But that'd just be crazy, wouldn't it? :P

    I think Fiddy pulled a hipster move and picked the most esoteric hat he could find at the fitted cap store. That's really funny, though.

    Fiddy is down with ID? Well, how about that? Even if he does just like the logo, what were the odds that he came across that cap and decided to get it? Especially when you consider how many minor league teams and logos there are across the country. I wonder if he's Mormon, too?
