KINGSFORD -- It was a strange site outside of Kingsford High School Friday, but for a good cause.

In an effort to raise money for the Kingsford High School Academic Booster Club, Karen Larson dressed like a cow to sell tickets to the group's Cow Bingo fund-raiser.

Each ticket is $100 and buys a square on Flivver Field.  Then, next Saturday, a live cow will be brought in and whichever square it goes to the bathroom on will win $10,000!

Larson wears the costume every year because her boss challenged her to.

Tickets are available at Kingsford High School.
