He's going to wait out all the hoopla that is expected next week. He could be a little uneasy about it all.

Someone raided their piggy bank.

They can get one for $53.99 at Life Size Custom Cutouts.
Not revealing the link. This is not a promotion for them.

Keep him out of the rain!

At his age, you don't just bounce right back from that.
