    My wife and I were invited to a Halloween party this year. We're supposed to wear a costume, and I figure if I'm going to wear one, I might as well go all the way and wear a good one.

    Anybody have any ideas/suggestions? What were some of the costumes you've worn in the past?

    One year, I was a 7 foot alien and another year, Darth Vader.

    The alien costume was cool because I wore like a backpack and the head was placed on a mount that extended over my head. It was covered by a very long robe and it gave the effect that I was a very tall alien (it helps to be 6'2" like me).

    The Darth Vader costume was not very original but I went all out by getting a CD burned with various Vader sound bytes from the movies and then I rigged the portable CD player with speakers underneath the chest plate. Seeing Vader (once again, it helps to be tall) walking around was spooking enough people out but hearing his voice made it even better.

    You and your wife can go as T-Mac and Yao, It'll be an excuse to get Rockets gear if you don't have any now.

    If that doesn't fly, just dress up in jail stripes and claim you're members of the Republican party. ZIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!

    My best halloween costume was 10 years ago in LA.

    I went to a halloween party as the "Texas Flash".

    I wore a London Fog raincoat and a pair of cowboy boots.

    Underneath the raincoat I was wearing a pair of UT gym shorts, with TEXAS stitched in satin along the ass of the gym shorts. I wore the gym shorts backwards so TEXAS appeared across the front.

    I then borrowed one of my girlfriend's stockings, and shoved 6 rolled up pair of sweat socks into it. Then I draped the thing down the inside of my leg from the gym shorts, and my girlfriend wrote DON'T MESS WITH TEXAS along the thing in black magic marker.

    A buddy of mine had broken his leg skiing a couple of weeks earlier. When I saw him at the party, I flashed him, and he fell over backwards on his crutches!

    Some of my latest costumes:

    Ivan Drago - (a friend of mine was Rocky) we won a $500 bar tab

    Stone Cold Steve Austin - pleather vest, and a bald cap, double fisting beers all night telling people to give me a 'Hell Yeah'

    Bo Duke - (again with a buddy being Luke)

    a Mormon (white bike helmet, white short sleeve button up, with a back tie, and a backpack)

    and I know this sounds bad but me and my fiance went as Nick and Jessica a couple of years ago

    Go get a Phillip Buchanon jersey and bring a red towel and yell 'Ole' all night as people go by you.

    You could go as David Carr and your wife could go as the grim reaper.

    Do what I am going to do this year. Grap your Dungeons and Dragons player's handbook and dice bag, and walk around in what you normally wear. Go as a nerd.:)

    I was thinking of wearing a pig nose and a t-shirt that just says, "I am all men."

    Don't do that. I did it before and everyone thought I was real white trash trying to be a ghost.

    I just figured out what I'm going to be. I'll admit, I was stumped and got ideas online. :cool:


    I'm either going to be a nudist on strike or a quarter pounder.


    For the nudist on strike, I'll simply dress normally and carry around a sign that says "Nudist on Strike."


    For the quarter-pounder, I'll carry a quarter and a hammer, and whenever someone asks me what I am, I'll sit the quarter on the ground and hit it with a hammer.



    Which sounds better?

    Neither, get a shirt that says "Vikings Off Week" on it and attach condoms and empty KY jelly tubes.

    Both of those are lame-o. Get you a scary clown mask and clown costume and go as some killer klown.
