Happy Halloween
by H.F. Salisbury
I love Halloween. Yesterday, I made a comment that it is my favourite holiday of the year only to be reminded by my wife that it is NOT a holiday. Rather it is an “occasion.” Whatever… it’s still cool and the best idea the Celts have had that I’m aware of.
At any rate, the picture above was taken at my daughter’s school Halloween party. The kid in the picture said his only regret about the costume was that a) he couldn’t find a watermelon to wear on his head as they are now out of season, b) he couldn’t find a real banjo, and c) it really pained him to wear Riders gear because he was “True blue.”
It wasn’t the best costume (one kid dressed up as “Vince the Sham Wow guy” complete with portable desk to actually do product demonstrations) but it sure got my attention.
I hope the Bombers dress up as the “Beast of the East” and keep the costume on for tomorrow’s tilt against Montreal.
GO BLUE GO!!!
PS… The Slap Chop commercial with Vince still cracks me up.
