Halloween: will I find LA at the doorbell?

[Karen M.]

Hey folks--
In another NG we are discussing making a Spidey get-up, and I was
thinking about the variety of costumes and superheroes I've seen kids
gravitate to. (The little girl in a NASA suit! The adult in a Wonder
Woman outfit, "little girls don't recognize this." The endless parade
of gypsys and bums.)
And I realized that it'd be cool to see some maillot jaunes (sp?)
on my front porch this year.
Anyone seen the commercial costumes-in-a-bag with appropriate
content? Do share!

That's a neat idea....maybe an opportunity to make a little dough

It would be unusual, to say the least.

Sounds scary to me.

Maybe Nike could make up some costumes and put them out in stores as a fund
raiser for the LAF.

Thinking about it now, I don't think seeing a pint-sized LA on my porch
would be that big a surprise.

Now, if I open my door to a mini-sized Tyler Hamilton or Damiano Cunego on
my porch, that would be a *big* surprise.

Or, how about a small Cipo in his cyber-suit (from the prologue)!

Regards,

Around here, it's too cold to go as Lance for Halloween door-to-door. My
daughter rides on a regular basis in a Rabobank team kit (it was the
cheapest quality kid's jersey/shorts I could buy at the time), but I can't
see her walking around the neighborhood on a cold, wet late October night in
it -- she'd freeze.

What does Lance wear for training in the winter?
