Zucchetto

Sometime in the mid 1970s, during a trip to a McDonald's, the Pope bought a happy meal which came with a little plastic zucchetto. Upon seeing this, he tossed off his old fabric Zucchetto, then put on the plastic one. A lifetime bond was formed.

Anytime ANYONE says zucchetto, no matter where they are in the world, he starts repeating "Zuuu-uuu-uuu cchetto" with a large happy grin. He loves his Zucchetto.

All he does is wear his little plastic Zucchetto with glee, and when it falls off or flies off in the wind he breaks down crying and orders his entire swiss guard to get it back.
