If you’re like me, you refuse to put a single thought into your Halloween costume until at least two days before the annual Halloween festivities kick off. Now, if you’ve been planning your costume since March, then kudos to you, but the rest of us will be searching for ideas for something that’ll absolutely kill on Halloween.
When it comes to sports and Halloween colliding, there are a few key boxes that need to be checked. First, your costume has to stand out from the rest, so get creative! Second, sports have wild personalities who do insane things for the sake of the camera, so it’s important to remember what kind of personality you’ll embody, too. Without further adieu, here are 13 Halloween costumes that’ll keep your sports attitude alive, and absolutely kill if they’re pulled off.
13. Kenny Powers

What You Need: A great mullet, a full baseball uniform (bonus points if it’s a Charros jersey), an American Flag cape (optional if you’re staunchly opposed to disrespected the flag), and an attitude that keeps pace with Kenny Powers.
12. Troy Polamalu

What You Need: A Steelers jersey and football pads, an obnoxiously large set of hair, a bottle of Head and Shoulders shampoo that you’re going to try to force on everyone the entire night and the kindest sounding voice you can possibly imagine.
11. Bill Belichick
