Like most HOBOs and Tramps, almost everything I wear came from thrift shops. In true Emmett Kelly fashion, I've ripped torn patched and pinned it into something that feels comfrtable and suits me. I continue to add to it to this day.

Dottie's "oh-so-sofisticated" look was recyled from an old theatre costume, which, in turn, came from the local thrift shop with a little help from Wal*Mart. It's super comfy, and looks good, so I see no need for any upgrade.

My first 10 years was with a pieced together costume. In 1999 when I made up my mind to take my clowning to the next level I got some fabric the a pair of fancy fabric exercise pants and talked to a friend about some ideas I had. Fitzy's first real costume. It wasn't until 2003 I bought a Mooseger coat at Great Clown Adventure. I was amazed at the difference. I felt more complete, more professional. Then in 2005 after sitting down a couple of times with Pricilla and doing some serious internal debating with Fitzy I received my brand new costume when I arrived at Moosecamp.
