Classic Raccoon Mountain Hat
This hat can be found on a drunk named Jon who hangs around in the Valentine saloon beginning in Chapter 2. He only appears between 12PM and 6AM, so make sure you enter the saloon during this period.
You’ll notice him going a big rant, so stand near him as his condition worsens. Eventually he’ll take a swing at you, soak up the punch, then retaliate. You won’t break the law this way! Once he’s down, his hat should drop, so pick it up and don’t search him as you’ll be done for theft.
