Silly Athletic Costumes For Halloween

Are you looking for a Halloween costume idea? How about dressing up as your favorite athlete, with a little humor thrown in.
**You could dress as Olympic gold medalist Michael Phelps. But, wearing a Speedo out in public might be a little scary, and the temperatures this weekend will be chilly.
**How about a Brett Favre costume. You could “pass” out treats instead of receiving it. If you’re anything like him, you’ll definitely throw the candy in the wrong hands!
**And then there’s always the Peyton Manning gig. All you need is a white uniform and a bottle of wine. The wine’s not to drink, unless you’re of age. It’s to symbolize Peyton’s attitude!
**I’d stay away from the Manny Ramirez outfit. It would take too long to do your hair, and you would have to walk so slow trick-or-treating, that you’ld never get any candy.
**Barry Bonds would make an easy character to portray. A little charcoal on the skin, and syringes (no needles) hanging from your behind. Stuff rags up your sleeves for muscles.
**I’d like to go dressed as a baseball umpire. All I need is a really thick pair of glasses, or really dark sunglasses, a large pillow stuffed under a dark shirt, and an AARP card.
**Tom Brady would make a good Halloween character too. No need for a uniform there. Just limp a little, and make sure you are accompanied by at least one woman (preferably pregnant).
