Jake Arsenault, 9, currently boasts a one-of-a-kind picture ID from Biddeford Middle School, a fact that his father couldn’t be more thrilled about.

“It’s just the greatest,” Craig Arsenault tells Fox News.

According to Arsenault, he and his wife actually dared their son to pose for his picture in the costume, offering him $10 if he was successful.

“My wife and I were on vacation at the time, and my mother was watching the kids,” Arsenault told Fox News of Jake’s school picture day, adding that they sent him to school with a permission slip condoning his costume. “We made the dare before we left, when we got home we asked him if they let him do it. He said yes, and then we just had to anxiously wait for the school photos to come back.”

“All I can do is laugh about how far it’s gone,” Arsenault said.
