Hulk Hogan sports formal bandana as trial vs. Gawker gets underway

Hulk Hogan is in a Florida court today sporting what looks like a formal bandana as jury selection in his defamation lawsuit against Gawker gets underway:

We’re serious about it being a formal bandana. A judge ruled last year that the Hulkster could only wear a plain banadana in court and not one with any sort of logo:

Lawyers must also address him by his given name — Terry Gene Bollea — and not as Hulk Hogan:
