Earlier this week, Elon Musk announced over Twitter that his The Boring Company’s black & white baseball caps were selling at a pace that exceeded expectations, most notably, his own. At the time, it was reported that 30,000 units of the 50,000 that were made had been purchased, with profits scheduled to be pumped back into the firm’s tunnel-boring machines.

The social media-friendly entrepreneur once again hit up Twitter, this time to announce a special prize for 10 lucky shoppers, who earlier snagged a hat. Posted just hours ago, Musk stated that 10 people will be selected at random, as they will not only have the opportunity to tour the LA tunnel, but drive the machines themselves. Let us know what you think of Musk’s newly-announced prize.
