Ass-kicker and name-taker Chip Guesman sent in this classic a few months ago. He says:
This was in Rices Landing PA (about 60 miles south of Pittsburgh). My mother made the costume by sewing individual strips of heavy plastic trash bags to a jumpsuit… I remember her staying up all night sewing it by hand for the Halloween parade at school (back when you were allowed to have such a thing!)…
The mask is from the 1976 Ben Cooper King Kong costume. Don’t forget to read the sign.
Thanks, Chip!

Fun. FWIW, my wife is a first grade teacher and they still have a Halloween parade. The world has not become as glum as people seem to think.
Tragically, a lot of school districts across the country are banning, or attempting to ban, Halloween costumes and parades. I’m not sure it’s the new norm, but it might be getting close.
