I knew this but I neglected to mention this before: You should never wear a green cap or hat in China because it means you are a cuckold, that is your wife is cheating on you.
This was brought up when I was doing a class on clothing. There happened to be a photo of an Oakland A's cap which is used to show the meaning of cap. One of the students asked about the colors and reminded me of the taboo against green hats that exists here.
I will have to research the origins of the taboo.
