Shut It Down, This Year's Halloween Costume Contest Is Over After This Couple Went As Randy Johnson And A Dead Bird

So obviously there's three types of Halloween costumes out there: people trying to look hot, people trying to be creative/funny, and people who are trying not to spend money so they are a referee, cat, etc. I think there's a time and place for all three, but at the ripe old age of 30, I have found an appreciation for those in the second category. And I'm talking about people that don't just Google "funny Halloween costumes" either. The way to really win me over is for me to know exactly who you are, laugh, and have never seen it or thought of it before.

Like, the most obvious Halloween costume in my neck of the woods heading into the weekend was a Michigan spy:

Funny, but predictable. I saw no less than a thousand Connor Stalions walking the streets of Columbus last night. Same with the classic Squints and Wendy Peffercorn. Good costume, but has been done many times before.  But the couple that absolutely took the cake and stole the show is this girl Alex and her boyfriend:

With the caption "Birds Dead, Snakes Alive". Folks, you just don't see this type of genius anymore these days. I want to stand up and give these two an ovation. Timely with the World Series, she still looks good (shoutout Alex), and he looks like Randy Johnson just got off the mound in 2001 and took a picture with a fan. That mother fucker might actually be Randy Johnson! Fake mustache and hair or did my guy grow them both out just for this?

Shut it down. This year's Costume Competition is over.
