5 Halloween costumes for drunks

—Josey

As an Enthusiast, one of your primary concerns on Halloween weekend is probably how to conveniently tote the night’s libations around in your costume. Unless you’re dressing as a college student, bike messenger, or office worker (possibly some of the laziest “costumes” you could wear), the usual backpack, messenger bag, or briefcase of booze will negatively impact the efficacy of your festive outfit. Here are 5 Halloween costumes that lend themselves particularly well to transporting booze:

 

Cowboy/Cowgirl:
Pick up a bottle of Hijos De Villa Pistol Reposado for tequila that does double-duty as a prop gun for the night. Play the distraught cattle-wrangler and down the whole thing yourself or do your crew a favor avenging your old friend’s death by shooting them in the mouth.

The Dude’s White Russian journey

—Ian

The “hero’s journey” (a term coined by American writer, Joseph Campbell) is a common theme in global mythology. Here, in a line from Campbell’s The Hero With a Thousand Faces, is the hero’s journey summarized:

“A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder: fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won: the hero comes back from this mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man.”

This all-encompassing event in a person’s life happens in a series of defined stages: Departure, Initiation and Return. Each stage is then marked with various steps, the full list of which (with descriptions) can be read here.  In The Big Lebowski, the Dude’s journey follows this pattern. And interestingly, certain key steps of the adventure are heralded each time the Dude imbibes his favorite drink, the White Russian (or as he refers to it—the Caucasian).
