The laughs and respect this guy got probably more than made up for his inability to hold a beer for the entire length of time he wore this costume, as well as the number of children whose childhoods were destroyed with just one glance.

14. Ramona Flowers
There's nothing about this costume that doesn't work, except perhaps any guy's opening line when they tried to take her home. More impressive than the homemade hammer is the fact a khaki dress actually looks… good.
