Trivia
- Bill's Hat has its own intricate back-story, which reads as follows: "While conducting a science experiment on parallel dimensions, Bill's Hat fell off a table into the Team Fortress universe."[1]
- Although Bill wears a green beret, the hat is either brown or gray depending on the wearer's team.
- The magazine cover Hat-Wearing Man seen on the Sniper vs Spy Update published an article titled "Wearing Berets: Not on our Watch! How You Can Help...". It seems the teams didn't take their suggestions to heart.
- Bill's Hat can be a popular hat to paint, as different colours will make the beret match various military uniforms. Using the colour "Zephaniah's Greed" will give the hat its original colours as they appear in Template:W.
