Default Re: The BEST halloween costume you\'ve ever seen

In Athens, OH (Halloween is a big deal there), the best I remember seeing was this guy who had built a big, 8 foot tall & perhaps 3 foot wide cylander out of chicken wire & wood. The whole contraption was big enough that you could get into it and roll yourself around by pushing on the front while walking forward. Athens is very hilly, and this guy was going up & down the main drag as a guy in a giant wheel.

Later that night, we saw the wheel chained to a lamp post outside the bar. Apparently, the guy had gotten thirsty and couldnt fit his wheel into the bar, but didn't want anyone to steal it (biketheft is a big problem in Athens, perhaps too many 2+2ers around), so he had chained it outside like a bike.
