Ooo, that was a good idea.
I saw someone who went as the recently mauled tiger trainer. Dressed like him, kinda looked like him anyway, had big gash marks on the side of his face and had a perfect stuffed-animal white tiger attached to his back. It's so mean, it's funny.
Also saw 3 Oompa Loompas. One of them must have been a whiz with a sewing machine or something, cause these didn't look like the cheap one-size-fits-all costumes you get from a store. They had the green wigs, the PREFECT shade of orange facepaint, white eyebrows and the poofy-legged white suspender/jumpsuit things.
I went drinkin up in Baltimore with some friends, and probably 95% of the people were in costume. I decided that since I hadn't dressed up for Halloween in like 20 years, I was going to go all out, so I went as Nightcrawler from the X-Men, complete with pointy ears, X-Men jumpsuit and blue facepaint. I would say it was well recieved. One person thought I was Wolverine, one person thought I was Spider Man (??), but several people at least recognized me as an X-Man and several more actually got the right character. One girl thought I was a "blue fairy", but I mentally forgave her on the grounds that she was hot, and flirty.
I had no idea Halloween could be that popular. Guess I've been living in the wrong cities.
