I've seen this guy before. The similar, yet more exuberant, embroidery front of the shirt and sleeve make the ensemble even more impressive. I think the front has his own personalized logo that he created from the Delta logo and some million mile thing in an oak leaf ring.

Diamond Hat Guy, is that you?
I can't believe no one has referred to the 42 page FT classic thread from 2011, I just saw a dude in the Crown room wearing a Diamond Medalllion Hat
Unfortunately all the old pictures of DHG are no longer in the thread, but he was rumored to also have a polo shirt. (The hat can be seen in post 466!)

it isn't EXACTLY DYKWIA, but this reddit post made me think of this thread:

"Yes, it was clear someone had gas in Delta one yesterday, but it wasn't nearly as disruptive to the flight as your completely over the top reactions during the 10.5 hour flight with your loud dramatic gagging and crying and constant complaints that you were "going to puke" for almost the entirety of the flight. Every chance you could, you made your own stink about it. The smell didn't wake me, but you sure did several times.
Wandering around the cabin and peering into people's suites who are trying to sleep while huffing and puffing and trying to "out the farter" was 100000xs more disruptive than the farter themself.
Having to yell at you for constantly spraying disgusting perfume in the cabin which I witnessed you do and which you tried to deny was the final insult.
People fart on planes, it's unpleasant but sometimes it happens to people when they fly. What was the plan once you found the culprit? Shame them into not farting? Tossing them into the Atlantic?
GROW UP.
My guess is the lady doth protested too much.
Signed,
the couple who were trying to sleep in 4C&D (the male of which you had the audacity to try to possibly blame in an effort to get me to sympathize with you-it wasn't either of us, but I kind of wish it was)."

At gate 5 today at EZE going to ATL. Agent has us line up. Delta One then Premium Select then Sky Priority etc. A non Latino comes up and stands in front of us. He said he wanted the Delta One line and we were in Sky Priority. We mention the line and try to direct him as he could have boarded right away. Pal gets very upset and says “how am I supposed to see the line”. He goes to board and they let him on.
We get on the plane and realize he is sitting across the aisle next to me….. in Comfort Plus. And yes I saw him use the Delta One lavatory already.
Check in for Sky Priority was slow because a tour group dropped 20-30 people at the Sky Priority and Delta One lines. Main Cabin line was going faster. And they were making Sky Priority wait until they handled Delta One even with dedicated lines.

While I agree it was incredibly unpleasant I can only imagine how embarrassing it was for her as well. My eyes watered but I used the air nosel and pointed it directly at my nose for the entire flight.

Regarding the HAFE*. I simply fully open the air vent and directed it in the general direction of the offending source. Worst case, suck on a peppermint LifeSaver.
