Top 10 Sports Halloween Costumes (10/28/08)

I know that this is probably played out and you've heard of all of these before, but I have searched google and everywhere for good costume sports inspired costume ideas. Here is my top 10 list.. Got any suggestions?


10. Steve Bartman -- There is always at least one Bartman at every Halloween party. The classic Bartman: Headphones, blue Cubs hat and sweatshirt. Although, you could pretty much go as any Cub fan.

9. Mike Tyson - You can actually get a Tyson mask fully equipped with face tattoo for only $18. After that all you need is some boxing gloves, a lispy high voice and no money.

8. Al Davis -- This seems to be a pretty easy costume to go as. Just have the silver and black track suit, some gold chains, rectangle glasses and a wrinkly old face. You can also bring an e-mail to read.

7. Michael Phelps -- Go with a swim cap and 8 gold medals. Don't go with a speedo, that might scare the children.

6. O. J. Simpson -- I guess an O.J. mask that was made in the mid-90's went for $300 on ebay this past week. The Juice makes for a good costume since this time around you don't have to go as a murderer but a memorabilia robber. Grab a toy gun, forge some old Simpson photos and walk around asking, "What IF I did it?", you'll be set.

5. Tom Brady -- Simple costume here. Put on your patriots jersey, some black paint under the eyes, a booted cast and some crutches.

4. Lance Armstrong -- You don't necessarily need a bike for this one, but it could help. Just get a yellow skin tight t-shirt, really short shorts, some slick sunglasses and a wrist full of "live strong" bracelets. If you are really trying to come in first place in the costume contest, just tell everybody you had a testicle removed -- you'll win.

3. Pacman Jones -- Get your "biggest" buddy and have him play the role of bodyguard. For this costume you need to have a stack of one dollar bills to make it rain and of course, a toothpick.

2. Tim Donaghy -- There are two ways of doing this costume... One, you could go as Tim the ref and make terrible calls all night. Or two, you could carry around the spreads of NBA games, wear an orange jumpsuit with handcuffs.

1. Joe Cullen -- I guess Jon Kitna pulled this one off last year. Cullen is the Lions assistant coach that was arrested for driving drunk and naked through a Wendy's drive-thru. Just grab a Lions visor and your birthday suit, have your wife dress as a Wendy's employee and you are all set.

Others:

Bill Belichick -- Cut-up hoodie, sad demenor.
Greg Oden -- Just get a Frankenstein mask.
Alex Rodriguez -- Yankee shirt, perfect nails (no rings), hair dyed just right.
Brett Favre -- The Green Bay Favre, of course. Pain killers and all.
John Madden -- "Halloween is a time, where children, get candy."
