Halloween Costumes for 2002?

Posted by Cliff on from the it's-that-time-of-year-again dept.

sukottoX asks: "The creepy yet fun holiday of Halloween is just a few weeks away. I'm wondering what sorts of costumes the Slashdot community is planning to wear to this year's Halloween parties (or to trick-or-treating for the younger readers). Looks like this year's big movies, Lord of the Rings, Star Wars, and Harry Potter are gonna be pretty popular. I went as Nick Burns last year (MOVE!). Anyone have some good suggestions?"

    I am still trying to track down the elusive CowboyNeal costume. I was going to go as CmdrTaco, but I just wanna scare the kids, not make 'em cry. :)

    I was holidaying in San fransisco a couple of years ago during halloween, and I have to say, you USians do the whole thing a damn site better than us europeans.

    The best costume I saw was this guy dressed as Jesus. We saw him walking to the nightclub with barefeet and only a white cloth draped around his privates, a crown of thorns, and a life size cross over his shoulder. Arriving at the nightclub, he immediatly got in a heated argument with someone dressed as the devil. He then spent the rest of the night tied to his cross, swaying in the middle of the dancefloor.

    Later that night, we were desperately trying to get a cab home.... and we saw jesus walk past, cross over shoulder. "Hey, jesus" I shouted "can you get us a cab???"

    Jesus:
    "In this town, thats one miracle even I cant peform."

    found out severl people were going as lions

    I once went as a lion, but I wore a polka-dot shirt and pants, and carried a sign that read "do not feed".

    When people asked me what I was, I said I was just carrying the "Sign on the dotted lion."

    Another time I wrapped myself in tinfoil and wore a chicken head.

    Nobody got that one at all - (Silver Poulet)
