man with an umbrella (in his hair)

Today on the way home from furniture shopping we saw a young fellow with a cocktail umbrella in his hair.

We debated about the reasons. Had he lost a bet? He was otherwise very stylish and together-looking and not the sort who'd horse around in a childish way. I wondered if he even knew it was there.
