All right then, a very quick one. ...
Once I was working at a hang gliding school in Kitty Hawk N.C. They wanted someone to wear the "Will Bear Wright" costume as some kind of PR advertising thingie. No one wanted to do it, but they finally offered enough money, like 3 times my normal hourly pay.
I show up on the day, only to find there was a political storm and the hang glider instructors were furious I was getting paid way more than them to wear the bear suit. So, the PR lady was sobbing in the corner as I put on the bear suit. It was summer, more than 90 degrees , so I had to wear ice packs so I didn't die.
Me and the crying lady went out to find some kids to impress, but they all ran from me in terror. The costume was like 8 feet tall , I had eye holes in the neck. I was trying to give away lollipops but the kids were pissing their pants and screaming. The PR lady mercifully cut my reign of terror short and we never did it again. Man, I earned every cent that day.
