I’m blanking totally. I’m also a Simpson’s obsessive, and have done Homer in this bar, and while it went down well, I am really trying to avoid a full mask again (though for the right costume idea, I’d do it).
I’m a reasonably hefty 41 year old guy (picture in the SMDB gallery). Any ideas will win plentiful rewards in heaven.
Haven’t looked at your pic–is Sweeney Todd a possibility? You can do the Depp version with a white streak or a Jack-the-Ripper-esque, run around with a fake knife. If you know a woman who’s willing to run around with a bodice and cleavage (and a knife), even better.
Something Dr. Who- ish? A bobby? (Bobbie?)
Okay, I’m giggling at this, but I’ve been asking my SO, who has travelled to London for work and worked with British people in several countries and he was brainstorming and said…<wait for it> … “Jar of Marmite?”
Jack the Ripper is a definite possibility. Unfortunately Sweeney Todd is out, as a couple who are very good friends of mine did that at this party two years ago.
If you go with a friend, you could wear a Union Jack T-shirt and he could wear the Irish flag. Then you could randomly attack one another throughout the night.
Yeah - but most people won’t catch on. It’s more the “eat their dead” aspect of the sport more than the specific nationality. I once did a “Brewer Street hooker” (Brits will get the joke I hope) using my uniform, fishnet stockings and a feathered boa.
The Uruguayan Rugby Cannibal is winning right now. I’ve found all I need online for it, and it requires next to zero effort on my part (other than borrowing a ball). And maybe dripping some fake blood down from my lips.
