Just curious if anyone's got any good and/or cheap costume ideas. I'm usually pretty creative, but I'm just stumped this year. In the past I've been:

Mr. Firley
Steve Irwin (Croc. Hunter)
Clockwork Orange (group costume)
Petter Solberg (last year)
Indiana Jones

So...any suggestions? I won't use one of the store bought costumes either, so think of some good ones. I thought about just wearing a speedo or G-string, but I think I may even turn away my best friends with that one

Forget the G-string... just go totally naked and tell everyone you're the Invisible Man!

Yea you would love to see that, wouldn't you, Jason from San Francisco.

 

If you go naked, you can be the hairless ape

 

Zoeb: Do you know what the word "invisible" means?

^Seriously.

But yeah, no one's got any good ideas. That's kinda depressing. What're you guys going as? Assuming some of you guys/gals are going to Halloween parties.

im trying to get a hold of one of thoes big costumes you rent. like a big bananna or a hot dog, but i cant seem to find any places that have any.
or one of thoes animal costues from "trigger happy tv" would be cool, like a gang of dogs.

 

well you can bite one from me if you get some others to do it too...one year (and i hope this dont offend anyone ) me and a bunch of my friends dressed up as mormons. white shirt, black tie/slacks, name tags with "brother josh" etc, bike helmets and bibles...we got almost got into a fight that year though heh

if you want really cheap, just go to the army/navy surplus and get some fatugies, and an army shirt. works pretty good. now im gonna pretend i didnt do that last year!!

 

I like the Mormon idea. But you could also just say you're a preacher/minister. Regardless, I'm trying to keep it cheap so the rental idea is out. I like the fatigues idea, but it's too ordinary. I need to have a costume that's better than my retarded friends

im going to be a pirate


















a BUTT PIRATE!

 

You could always go to the ACT school and rent one of their costumes from stage performances past. They've got some pretty nice get-ups there, especially if you're big on period pieces (y'know, like French Revolution guy or whatever).

 

Oh, and they're located at their theatre on Geary St.

 

I have a giant bunny suit.

And mucho props for going as Mr. Furley!!!

 

Strap a kielbasa on wear a bad mustache and go as John Holmes.
