Halloween costumes for 2009. Wednesday, October 21st, 2009

We talked on the show recently about how Halloween has became an adult holiday. It's not that adults hijacked it, we've just decided to share it. I don't know what Kristina and I are gonna do for the holiday yet, but I have been kicking around costume ideas for this year. You will notice most of them are simple. Here's what I'm thinking:

A candidate for Governor- This simply requires some paperwork and a filing fee. You don't need a costume, you can be a real candidate for Governor.

Michael Jackson- You can simply use the thriller video as a reference.

A Minneapolis Parking Space- Most printers accept 3x5 cards. If you Google Image Search "bike signs" you will get a bunch of funny and confusing sign images. Print them on the cards, cut them out and attach to a shirt.

Letterman and Ass-ociate- This one is great for couples. For him, a David Letterman face mask. For her, anything, the sexier the better.

Brett Favre- All you need is a Number 4 jersey and a waffle iron. It doesn't matter what jersey you choose, it's funny either way.

Where the Wild Things Are- How hard can it be to sew pointy ears on pajamas? Wear a cardboard Burger King crown and you've got it made. Remember to keep it PG.

Target Field- Cut a head hole in the center of a strip of sod. Let it drape across your front and backside.

H1N1- Pig nose and angel wings. Get it? Swine flu. Not laughing? I understand.

Balloon Boy- This should be as easy as tricking a Colorado Sheriff. Use an emergency blanket shaped with duct tape and scissors. Fill it with helium balloons (for buoyancy) and attach a string to each side and voila, you are balloon boy. You want to walk around with a puke bucket in your other hand, just in case someone asks to to tell the truth.

Phil Cuzzi- Remember him? Worst. Umpire. Ever. He looks a lot like Robert De Niro. Get the mask, get a MLB umpire t-shirt, and finally, get some thick glasses.

Any suggestions? E-mail me: prebil@am1500.com
