At the U.S. Open this past week, otherwise laconic #12 ranked US star Taylor Fritz shocked the staid world of tennis by wearing a visor festooned with mirrors. Quoted after his victory over Frances Tiafoe, Fritz commented “It’s a disco ball visor. Even when I lose, it’s a party. And I don’t lose.”

We should say that most of the preceding paragraph is a lie. We should also say that this DIY Disco Ball Visor project is absolutely real. Here’s more from BIGDaddy504 via instructables:

I like disco balls, thought it would make a cool Hat. Ok what you need, a cheap Visor ( no matter what color ), then Cutable Flexible mirror, Sharp sisors, Hot glue gun ( low/multitemp ) with plenty glue stix. Fine sharpy perment marker, and about an hour to spare. I got all the stuff from my local Walmart.

Ok First i got a cheap visor, any hat place. Then I went to Walmart, in the auto section I got a Cutable Flexible Mirror (it’s lighter than real mirror, and a lot safer), then a Hot Glue Gun and Lots of Glue stix (Use low/Muti temp so it don’t melt Mirror) then get sharp Sissors, Sharpy Marker, Ruler, and about an hour to put together.
