Today, I was working a kid's birthday party dressed as a clown. The child's mother made me change because he was scared of clowns. The only thing I had in my car was a princess costume that was owned by a girl co-worker. So for 4 hours I had to entertain in a tight pink dress. I'm a guy. FML

I find it odd that the mother didn't verify what you would come as if she knew her kid hated clowns. Usually the costume of the entertainer is discussed beforehand.

hey money is money! There is not much of a difference between a clown and a princess regardless of gender at your age. ;-)

You know what at least you did it for the kids you could of said no but instead you did it you'll make a great father some day bro

All I keep seeing in my head is OP as Russell Crowe out in a crowd of kids doing his best Gladiator impression in a tutu. "Are you not entertained?"

You should check YouTube and see if you're famous. Kids are fixed up with Iphones and Ipads the minute they leave the womb these days.

You should have planned ahead. You should have called and ask them if wearing the clown costume was ok. Then you would have known it wasn't so you could have brought a different costume. Not only is a grown man wearing a pink princess costume is awkward for you, it must have been really awkward for the kids and their families.

So my immediate question is "Who hires a clown for her coulrophobic son?".

That should've drawn some laughs at the very least
