Propeller beanie
From A KoL Wiki
propeller beanie
It finally got here! Your very own propeller beanie! If it's half as efficacious as it is stylish, well -- well, you're in a lot of trouble. Oh, and you should probably read the fine print.*
*Fly at your own risk. Do not fly in inclement weather. Flight may end abruptly and without warning. Do not fly like a birdie in the sky up so high without proper breathing apparatus. Flying too high with some guy in the sky is my idea of nothing to do. Beanie may not actually enable wearer to fly. Beanie may drastically inhibit social life.

Notes
- Staggers your opponent 10% of the time, display the message
- Using your trusty propeller beanie, you fly out of your opponent's/opponentss[sic] reach.
- The message can appear even when you get the jump and twiddle your thumbs.
References
- This item is a reference to the story arc in the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes where Calvin receives a propeller beanie after redeeming cereal boxtops. "It finally got here" is a nod to how long the beanie took to be added -- two and a half months after the boxtops.
- The line in the disclaimer about "flying too high with some guy" is taken from the lyrics of the Cole Porter song "I Get a Kick out of You".
- The line that says "fly like a birdie in the sky up so high" is likely a reference to the song "Fly" by Sugar Ray, in which reggae artist Super Cat embellishes the lyric "I just wanna fly" by adding "like a birdie in the sky up so high" almost every single time it occurs in the song.
