File under can't help but laugh: Ice Cream Store Mascot Mistaken For KKK Member
Some part time jobs just aren't worth it...;)





Once and for all, people, it's an ice cream cone.

The owners of Ice Cream Family Corner and Sandwiches at the busy intersection of South Pine Avenue and Southwest 17th Street say their two-month-old business is getting creamed because passers-by have mistaken their white-hooded ice cream cone mascot for a KKK protester.

4. I saw this yesterday and it is still funny.
How hard is it to glue some pillow stuffing to that point and make it a bit less KKK-ish?
