SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — A homecoming spirit week joke has become quite profitable for a South Dakota high school student.
Carson Haase took "Ranch Day" to another level recently. Students were asked to wear western style one day during the week leading up to homecoming.
Haase decided that cowboy boots and a hat wasn't enough, she went to school dressed as a bottle of ranch dressing, the Argus Leader reported.

Her take on the theme caught the attention of Hidden Valley, the company that invented the popular dressing.

Hidden Valley sent Haase a box full of ranch dressing and other gifts. It also made a $500 donation to a scholarship in her name for a friend who died in March.
Haase said she chose the unusual costume to honor her friend Brittany Corcoran.
