Captain your Halloween

Last night I saw an info-mmercial for a website that sells costumes for Halloween. It seemed like a joke commercial, but it's truly trying to sell costumes to guys who would have lame costumes otherwise. For example, they show a guy at a party dressed as the back half of a two man horse, with the requisite front half missing from the party. Another guy is dressed as 'Hanglider man' - no one can get within 8 feet of him because of his hanglider span. The commercial says "Why go in a lame costume, when Captain Your Halloween can give you a great costume! You could be 'First Class Male' (black outfit, with an oversized first class postal letter on the front). Or, you could go as 'Deviled Egg' (black leggings, oversized egg shape over head and upper body, with devil horns). Or perhaps 'Venetian Blind' is more fitting (blind-guy shades, Venetian outfit)." Enter hot chick: " 'I LOVE deviled eggs.' Wink wink, hint hint. So go to captainyourhalloween.com and order your costume online!"

I went to this website and it turns out it is for Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum. However, you CAN actually buy these costumes by clicking on a link to a third party costume site.

Weird, but a cheesy and funny commercial nonetheless.
