Who doesn't love dressing up in a Halloween Costume? I like putting weird costumes on for any holiday... Easter, Christmas, Valentine's Day... Whatever!

My parents have dressed me up from when I was a baby until I was too cool to dress up for Halloween.  It's so crazy that when you are a kid, Halloween is awesome.  When you become a teenager, Halloween is corny and you are too cool to dress up in a costume.

Then you hit college and Halloween is amazing again! Especially as a male in college because all of the girls used to dress up in very sexy costumes.  How many sexy nurses or firefighters have you seen in your life?  My answer to that question is ALL OF THEM! My college buddies and I used to throw huge Halloween parties and I miss those parties every day.  Just about every time we threw a Halloween party, the cops ended up coming and breaking it up.  I dressed as Tom Cruise from Risky Business one year ago.  It was the scene where he had a white button-down shirt on and then just underwear, socks, and sunglasses on.  The song Old Time Rock & Roll is playing loudly in his house and he is dancing around because his parents left him home alone.  Well, imagine me dressed up in that outfit and having to go outside and talk to the police officers who were breaking up the party.  Yup, there I am in a white button-down and tighty whitey underpants trying to get out of a noise violation.  The cops couldn't stop laughing at me and just gave us a warning. At that party we got a warning, we were not so lucky the other 15 Halloween parties we through.

Even after college, Halloween is still a cool thing because it gives us "adults" something to do.  Usually by now you are looking at witty costumes or couples costumes.  You even start dressing up your pets in ridiculous costumes.

Take a look at some random Halloween costumes I had the pleasure of wearing over the years.

Bumble Bee

My parents dressed me as a bumble bee when I was about 2 or 3 years old.  I think I look pretty awesome!

Eazy E from NWA

A few years back, the movie Straight Outta Compton came out and it was all about the rap pioneer group NWA.  My brother and I grew up big fans of NWA so we dressed up as 2 of the members as an ode to them.  My bro is Ice Cube and I dressed as Eazy E.
