Whether you ride or wear a toboggan depends on where you're from

Interesting. I would have figured a toboggan as a sled too.

I'm catching up on blogs, so sorry I'm so late with this comment.

Anywho -- Wikipedia says that people in the midwest and south use the word 'toboggan' to describe a hat, but I've lived in the midwest and Texas my whole life (except for 3 1/2 years in Germany and Arizaona), and I have never, ever heard a hat called a toboggan!
