Some people responded negatively to the post.

"This is just an invitation for a pack of people dressed as clowns to descend on Ford City as far as I'm concerned. The pay day is just too easy," commented Chuck Pascal.

Anyone detained by the Ford City police for being (dressing as) a clown, please call me. I'm in need of making some very easy money. SMH
