Too much trivia in this one. It's better when there's a balance between trivia and wordplay. It's just not enjoyable otherwise. This was a slog! "Fire hat" is a bit silly, no one calls it that. It's a fireman hat or firefighter hat or similar. It's not a hat for a fire. "For the win" does not mean "victory is mine." If you're going to use slang, use it correctly.

bad cluing and too much trivia.

the "theme" didn't add anything. kinda pointless.

confusing and not fun.

I got the theme early but the bad fill is just not worth it. This was not a fun gimmick for digital solvers. Not a bad idea just terribly executed.
