It’s normally children that are bad influences on their parents, but in this case it was definitely the other way around.

A story has recently gone viral, with a photo of Maine fourth-grader Jake Arsenault’s school ID card getting tens of thousands of people talking.

It all starts on Jake’s picture day, where he’d be photographed for his ID at Biddeford Intermediate School.

His parents, Craig and Kari, goaded him to make things a bit more interesting, and dug out a hot dog Halloween costume Jake had worn a few years earlier.

They bet him $10 to wear the costume for the photograph, and even wrote a permission slip for his teachers just in case they weren’t happy with the prank.

Telling HuffPost, Craig says: ‘My wife Kari just blurted out that he should wear it. Jake didn’t want to at first, so I told him I’d give him 10 bucks to do it, as it would be hysterical.’

And boy did he come through, with the absolute trooper donning the outfit once the cameras came out.

‘I’m not too surprised he went through with it, as Jake is a fun-loving, outgoing kid, and is usually the funnier out of the three of our kids,’ said Craig.

It is absolutely ridiculous how far and fast this hotdog thing has spread. Anyone who shared it, I wanna thank you…

From there, Craig posted the picture of the ID on his professional Facebook page, which he uses as part of his job as an army recruiter.

Alongside work-related posts, he adds a few personal ones to show his fun side, and he certainly did that with Jake’s japes.

The picture has now been shared 32,000 times, liked over 7,000 times, and it boasts over 4,000 comments. Basically, people really enjoyed it.

It’s also been featured on news outlets across the US, catapulting Jake to instant fame.

‘I’m incredulous as to how far and fast this has gone. Never in a million years did I think this would ever happen,’ Craig said.

Definitely worth the price of the costume.
