Young Thayus De Groot may not be old enough to drive, but he is already earning a few dollars of his own.
The 100 Mile House resident was at the Arts on the Fly music festival in Horsefly, B.C. on July 13 with his parents, enjoying the live music in style, as he dressed in a 1940s-era wardrobe, complete with a fedora, suspenders, button-down shirt and a tie.
Thayus carried with him a briefcase of neckties he was willing to part with, for a price, allowing others to take a tip from his fashion lead.
Thayus' parents said the young man's personality accounts for much of his sales. Thayus was also practicing his favourite dance, the jig, at the River Stage during a performance by Zonnis.
