Funny/Good Hallowe'en Costume Ideas - Calgarypuck Forums - The Unofficial Calgary Flames Fan Community

So I'm tryin to think of a good costume idea for Hallowe'en this year. I've had some gooders in the past, but so far am drawing a blank this time around. I got a pretty sarcastic sense of humour, so something hilariously stupid is always an option. Any ideas? Or better yet, what are some of you guys/girls going as?

btw the one suggestion I won't take is Joker from The Dark Knight, as I have a feeling it will be a very over-used idea this year...

I went as a Mormon last year, it was pretty well received.

Go as Rescession, you'll have the scariest costume out there

As a Flames fan in Edmonton, is it ok to go as an Oiler fan for Halloween (Jersey + Oiler tie)? Or is Oilers garb never allowed to be worn, even if it's just for Halloween?

Never.

I was thinking about making this thread too.

Last year I went as an emo and it worked ridiculously well, so I need something good to top that.

When I was in high school, some guy put a box over his head with two giant holes cut out, and FREE MAMMOGRAMS written on it.

I thought it was pretty funny.

Sainters7 · 10-08-2008, 04:22 PM

Haha some gooders so far, keep em comin guys. The Emo idea was especially priceless. I'm just headin er out the door to work, I'll check this thread again when I get home around 10:30, hopefully there's some solid gold to be found.

PS- One idea I've been playin around with is to go as Lumberg from Office Space, I just need to get a mug made.

EDIT: And to the guy that asked, NEVER would I put on Oiler garb, even for Halloween...although going as Stortini would be funny. I'd just pick fights with people all night, and then when they wanted to scrap, I'd bear hug em and just hold on for dear life.

I've seen that many times, and they even sell them at costume stores everywhere. It's funny, but you run the risk of being one of many.

Here's a pic "Emo Phil"

Anything Rocky Horror Picture show is always a good idea too...

Borrow MQS's idea... Go as Facebook :P

You could go as a zombie and just introduce yourself as John McCain.

Last year I dressed up as Fez...went out and got vintage 70's clothing and man was it ever uncomfortable.

Three of my friends are using the shot Cops as their theme this year...one will dress up like a cop, the other two are going as a redneck and his wife, they're even making pixelated face masks.

I have no idea what I'm doing yet.

ive been a classic jew- long balck jacket, widebrim hat with 2 jew curls made out of cuts from an afro wig. went to jew party, had some laughs

last year i was a priest with a child tied around my waist like an apron. great time offending people. my housemate was jesus and we had a kegger with weapons around the house to hit him with.

been a Calgary prostate insitute doctor, stole some garbs and put a glove in my breast pocket with some chocolate on it.

was one of the group of seven one year (painters). kind of an artistic move, but endedd up looking like the beastie boys from intergalactic.

White bed sheet chut hole for head and glue empty cereal boxes to it and go as a Serial (Cereal) Killer

Anyone know where I can get a Saddam Hussein costume? Oh, I bet it'd be easier to go as Osama Bin Laden. Anyone know how to tie a turban?

Joborule · 10-08-2008, 07:11 PM

Dollar Bill...

I misread that ....I thought that you had friends going as Hot Cops (from Arrested Development), which I think would be hilarious!
