I asked OP’s grandpa, here’s what he said:
“So I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style at the time. Now to take the ferry cost a nickel, and in those days, nickels had pictures of bumblebees on them. Give me five bees for a quarter you'd say. Now where were we, oh ya. The important thing was that I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time.”

I’m more interested that he wore his belt buckle on the side. I feel like it wouldn’t be as comfortable and I’m wondering what the reasoning may be.
