Mascot Costume Causes KKK Controversy
Ocala Ice Cream Parlor Deals With False Rumors

OCALA, Fla. -- The costume of a mascot for an Ocala ice cream parlor is causing a controversy because many passers-by have mistaken the uniform for a KKK protester, according to Ocala.com.

The owners of Ice Cream Family Corner and Sandwiches, at South Pine Avenue and Southwest 17th Street, told the newspaper that potential customers are avoiding their two-month-old business because of the mascot.
