I can buy that explanation for more complex, obscure puzzles. And I can definitely understand guessing "hat" at first. But I'm not very good at this kind of thing and it was immediately obvious that it was one of two things the second I saw it. And I'm not even close to old enough to remember people saying "put a feather in your cap". I'm not old enough to remember caps period, except when very old men wear them.
Also, these people just won thousands of dollars for playing a game for 15 minutes. They can cry about how hard life is as they collect their massive check.
