It's Noah's last year of high school so he saw this as a perfect opportunity to \"embarrass\" Max, who steps off the Central Community Schools bus with a big smile every time he sees his sibling waiting in the goofy garb.

\"At first I was surprised and kind of embarrassed, but now I'm just used to it,\" Max said.

Not even pouring rain has stopped Noah from flocking to the bus in a funny outfit.

To date, Noah has sported 10 different looks, including a firefighter, a bear, a LSU football player, Santa, a sloth and more.

\"It's gotten a lot bigger than I thought it would,\" Noah said of the Facebook page. \"I thought I would keep it going, but I was expecting it to kind of be something that me, my friends, my family and a few other people we know to kind of catch on. But for the amount of people that saw it and loved it, it was just crazy.\"

Max's favorite surprise so far was the Chewbacca costume.

Noah wants to make sure his brother has plenty of good memories, no matter how goofy they may be.
