DES MOINES, Iowa (UPI) -- The Iowa student who found fame as "sticker kid" during Hillary Clinton's post-Iowa caucus speech said his original plan was to bring saxophones to the rally.

Peter Clinkscales, a student at Drake University, rocketed to Twitter fame Monday night when TV watchers noticed him standing behind the Democratic presidential hopeful with stickers on his face and shirt.

The student was branded "sticker kid" and sticker boy by impressed Twitter users.

"Lol I trended on Twitter #bucketlist #stickerboy #stickerkid," Clinkscales tweeted.

 

Clinkscales said he is actually an undecided voter.

"I saw that a presidential candidate was going to be at my university and I thought that I should go see that presidential candidate at my university," Clinkscales told Mashable.

Clinkscales said his original plan for the rally was to bring and play a saxophone at the event with a friend. But he discovered the musical instruments would be considered a "security risk" and would not be allowed inside.
