Maddon, Cubs clown around on photo day
Chicago Cubs manager Joe Maddon has a penchant for the absurd.
One day after arriving to camp in a ridiculously retro chocolate ride, the skipper showed up to the Cubs' photo day on Monday in an appropriately matching tie-dye shirt:

The shenanigans didn't end there, however.
As if the antics already didn't go far enough, strength coach Tim Buss dressed up as a clown for the occasion:

In all honesty, Maddon did try to warn us about what was coming when he was spotted riding around on his bike Sunday:
