Ridiculous People in Indian Headdresses

Once worn into battle and at ceremonies of a spiritual nature, the headdress (or war bonnet) worn by the Plains Indian men is now more often seen in the fields of music festivals. While the traditional headdress was comprised of feathers signifying a good deed of brave act in battle, today, they could perhaps represent the number of light beers drank in the parking lot or number of times the wearer has seen Skrillex.
