HAT’S OFF TO ELIJAH WOOD

SWEPT AWAY:

“Lord of the Rings” star Elijah Wood plunked down a sale-price $85 for a new hat at a NY department store, but as soon as he stepped outside a gust of wind blew it off his head right into a gutter clogged with wet gunk. Scratch that hat — the young actor just went back and blew $85 more on another dome-warmer!
