Green Boston Hat - Dumb Question

I bought a setlist shirt on the 8/8 (whatta show that was!), but I balked on getting a cap. Since it's in the store now, can a hat owner tell me if it's a full-on flat bill style? Can I bend the bill, so it's not in the New Era trend style (and still look good)?

might try to wash it to soften the points
Wet the hat completely, so its soaked.
Take a dryer to the inner band that goes around the perimeter of the hat. Some parts you will have to lift up the inside material to get to the band with the dryer. Dont get too close with it that it melts but get it real hot all the way around.
Then put it on your head, while wet, so that it molds to your head.
Then you can wet and shape the brim afterward to how you like it.
All that I once held as true
I stand alone without beliefs
The only truth I know is you.
I've come around to respect the flat bill-new era style, but my dome is too narrow/skinny for it to look good. Just looks big on me.
I get the whole 'high crown' complaint - I can't stand the big boxy look either, but I don't think I've ever had a problem putting a good curl on my hat brims.
Side note:
Did anyone here get either of the PJ hats from the GCF in NY last year? I got one of each...... I have yet to break in my Mets style, but the other one broke in incredibly well. I was surprised at how comfortably it fit my big head (I wear a 7-5/8" New Era on field hat), especially being a snap back. I hope my green Boston hat breaks in half as well.
