« on: August 16, 2004, 07:36:41 PM »
Rawr I wrote a big fancy post and than I got dced and lost it all so I'll cut it short and sweet:P

I don't think you'd get lynched, my friend saw a bunch of people dressed as Hogwarts students at Otakon 2003.  I think green lantern would be cool, plus he's hot especially in spandex  :P
The most fundamental tuba tradition is togetherness. Tubas are pack creatures, roaming in groups. Usually whenever you see one tuba, there are more to follow.

I love the University of Delaware Tuba section!

Dude, Go for it. Especially if you can pull it off, more power to you! I think everyone would think it's really cool that you think outside the pockey box ^^.

^ :::DIES!!!:::

Dude, go for it. People do Western stuff all the time; I've seen Hogwarts students at EVERY con I've gone to and a very nice Neo/Trinity duo pulled off in March. Plus, I'm sure you'll have the one random-but-SO-cool chick all "THE GREEN LANTERN! ::glomp of death::"

And who doesn't love getting glomped by chicks? I know I do!

You know, the Green Lantern was always my favorite ^^ (Do it, Do it, Do it!)

And Beast Boy...Green people rock....

X-men, Pirates, Vikings, Matrix, GI Joe, Harry Potter series, Every space sci-fi imaginable,  yes the Spanish Inquisition, Basketball Mascots... go for it, I see all sorts of costumes that have little to no relation with anime.
