(Scroll down for video) After his wife dared him, a teacher decided that he will wear the same outfit every year the day pictures were taken for the class yearbook photo, according to video uploaded to the internet.
The school teacher in Dallas, Texas, Dale Irby, wore the same polyester shirt and vest for his yearbook photo for forty years straight.
Irby said that what began as an accident became a joke that repeated every year.
As a sports teacher, Irby used to wear appropriate sports clothing suitable for exercise.
He wore the combination vest and shirt in order to look presentable for his first yearbook photo in 1973. The following year, he accidentally wore the same outfit again.
"I was so embarrassed when I got the yearbook photos back from school that second year because I realized I had used the same outfit as the previous year," Irby said.
Irby's wife, Cathy, dared him to wear the outfit again for the third year. In the spirit of a joke Irby continued wearing the same outfit for a period of five years, after which he thought "why stop?"
Unfortunately, Irby retired this year after 40 years of teaching. It remains unknown if Irby plans to carry on with his joke until he dies.Mobile video not loading? Click here to view
