Crazy!
I went to a bar, no, not to drink. I met up with a buddy from high school. We hung out, and participated in a Halloween costume contest. I busted out the Mandalorian, of course. He... well, he was a giant walking phalic symbol. Yes, that is right, he was a male anatomical part!
In short, I won the first place prize of $200 (in the form of a gift certificate). He came in second with $100 and some punk-style satan came in third with a $50 prize.
My buddy told me later that he had told the judges that I had made the costume, myself, so it must have upped the wow factor considerably. Of course, when the announcements were being made, they said that a Jedi had taken first place. Naturally, I am looking around for the Jedi of the crowd, as I hadn't seen on all night, until my buddy pointed out that they were referring to me! High fives were exchanged and it was a pretty decent night.
Wouldn't you know it, though, this is the second time that I have won a prize in a costume contest wearing some sort of Star Wars costume! The first time I won fourth place ($5 gift certificate to the Chinese restaurant I was frequenting at the time) in my TIE PILOT costume.
I had a pretty good Halloween! I hope everyone else had a safe night.
