Ball caps at the lodge
At the local lodge (my only live play) sunglasses are frowned on, except late in the monthly $150 tourney. At the weekly $50 tourneys, which attract 10 or 20 players, nobody wears them, but I'm the only player watching the others and waiting until the action is on me to look at the cards. I started wearing a ball cap after a night of frustration looking at another guy at the table and never being able to see his face at the moment he examined his card. The lodge is filled with good old boys, many of whom wear ball caps all the time (blaze orange in hunting season) so I don't look out of place.
