I was just a tourist...there for the eclipse in 2017.

The next day was pretty hot. Some other local saw me sweating and offered a "coo rag". I had never heard of such a thing and was a bit icked by the name. Later found out he was being hospitable and it's a common thing often known as a cooling towel. My nothern-latitude ass never heard of such a thing.
