Dale Price of American Fork, Utah, has been seeing his 16-year-old son off to school for the past 170 school days in an unusual way: Dale dresses up every morning in a different costume and waves goodbye to his son from the family porch.

His costumes range from a bride in a wedding dress to Captain Jean-Luc Picard to Ariel from The Little Mermaid.

The dress-up idea started in August 2010, when the son’s bus route started passing by the Price household. Their son, Rain, was embarrassed at first, but according to Dale’s Wave At The Bus blog, Rain has a great sense of humor and, “he did laugh at the waves.”

The blog documents every day that Dale dressed up, until his final day on June 2. His wife, Rochelle, who writes the blog, explains that the cost of the costumes was less than $50, saying “most of these costumes were borrowed from neighbors and friends or found in our costume boxes from years past.”

But, why would he do that? Was he trying to embarrass the kid for some reason or did he just like to play dress up?

Pragmatic question....does this guy have a job? Most folks are headed off to work when the kids are getting on the school bus.

To be fair, though, he might work graveyards or something.

If he literally is working graveyards, let's hope the guy is interring, rather than disinterring. Although, digging up graves would explain the seemingly endless supply of costumes.......

This story reminds me of the guy who dressed up in his ex-wife's wedding dress to sell it on eBay.
