Historically Accurate Rodeo Clown etc.

On my last visit I chose to dress as an 1890's rodeo clown. I donned 42 x 30 pants in order to really let the suspenders do their job (I typically wear 38 x 30). I sported a vibrantly colored checkered shirt. And, I topped it all off with an extremely Amish looking, wide-brimmed, straw hat. I greeted everyone with a "Hello, English" in proper Amish form. I was happy to provide the comic relief for the day. (I must admit that I enjoyed the freedom and roominess of pants several sizes too big -- I could get used to it.) I'm craving a straw hat I can call my own for everyday summer use.
