Default Newbie: Upsidedown glasses?

So what's with them? I see them at pretty much every ESPN event...

Sometimes to look cool, sometimes because the bridge of peoples noses get sore from wearing sunglasses too long.

Marcel Luske claims to gain more tells when wearing his sunglasses upside down. The theory is that the other players find looking at Marcel with his upside down glasses to be a little offputing and then more readily give off tells.

How true it is may be hard to say, but that is the reasoning that Marcel gave in a interview anyway.

When the sunglasses are worn upside down, the effect of hiding your own eyes still exist, yet you are able to read the board without having to look through the darkness of the glasses, actually looking at the board from underneath the glasses, because the glasses ride higher on your nose.
