OUT-OF-THIS WORLD DAD
















The man appearing in all the Fancy Costumes above goes by the name of Dale Price.  The reason for him wearing all the costumes was to send-off his then 15 year old son, Rain, who boarded the bus to school each morning.  He did this for the duration of the school days totalling 170.
Mr Price said his unusual way of waving to Rain who got on the bus was his unique way of "saying I love you" to his son.
Mr Dale Price of Utah sent off his son to school on the first day by dressing normally but from day two onwards, he wore a Fancy Costume a day.  He has appeared as Ariel the mermaid, Robin, Bat Girl, a bird, a bride, a rocker, Captain America, Princess Leia, Tinkerbell, Wonder Woman to name just a few.   It seems that Mr Price spent less than US$50 for all the costumes.
