I’m sure at least two of you were wondering what happened with the Halloween costume contest we were running. Well the short and sweet of it is that we got one entry from Jason at GorillaSushi. That guy is always good for helping us out. Unfortunately, one entry leaves little in the way of a “contest” so I figured we’d just let it slide and come up with a better one. I realize it’s difficult to take a picture and email it…wait no it’s not. But still, the next contest will be much easier. I’ve got to unload these DVDs!

In all seriousness, thanks for checking out the site and hopefully you’ll keep coming back.

I guess video game companies are wising up on how to sell their wares. Heidi Klum in her undies is one way. New York Jets cheerleaders also work.

Although, Heidi lost a little bit of her lustre when I saw her Halloween costume this year… (more…)

Piper Perabo is probably best known as “Jersey” in Coyote Ugly. She also made out with Lena Headey in Imagine Me & You. She’s 32. (more…)

That’s right, I’m not wishing dudes a happy Halloween. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love the Halloween season. It’s one of my favorite times of the year. But when the actual day rolls around, it doesn’t excite me. I never really pinpointed it until now. Halloween is a day for chicks and little kids.

Chicks get an excuse to dress up in a sexy costume with their friends and go out. Little kids get an excuse to go door to door and get free candy, then go home and pig out until they puke. What do I get? A 25 year old guy can’t go door to door and get candy. That’s just weird. The only options are either to sit at home and hand out candy, dress up like an idiot and go get laughed at, or go out without a costume and take all the crap from people who say you should have dressed up.

So what are your plans for the evening?

Something in my head made me set the deadline for our costume contest on October 30th. Don’t most people get dressed up ON Halloween? So yeah, tonight, take pictures of your horrible costumes and send them to contests@average-dudes.com! Photos must be received by November 2nd at 11:59PM. DO IT!!!!

And check out the contest post for more info.

Don’t forget to enter our Halloween photo contest. The point isn’t necessarily to have a GOOD costume. Just look at the fatass Spider-Man I found at Steven Humour. This guy could easily win based solely on the fact that he looks like he ate Spider-Man. Send your photos to contests@average-dudes.com. Check the contest post for the rules and prizes and such.

Hopefully you’ve already gone over our Dumbass’s Guide to Crappy Halloween Costumes and gotten an idea of what you’re going to be for Halloween. Here’s the deal: we want to see what you’ve come up with. We want pictures of your costumes, your girlfriend’s costumes (or just your girlfriend)…whatever. We’ll look through the submissions and choose a few lucky dudes (or dudettes) to win. The best of the best (or worst of the worst) will get a History Channel DVD (it’s cooler than it sounds…details below) while runners up will get some sweet Shipyard Brewery swag.

Full details can be found after the break. (more…)

It’s just about the midpoint of October. That time of the year when your girlfriend has her entire Halloween costume spec’d out from the make-up to the boots and you’re still too busy trying to get your fantasy football team in order to even worry about what the hell you’re going to wear. That’s where we come in. We’ll walk you through some of the shittiest yet totally awesome Halloween costumes ever conceived by dudes. You might even get a few ideas for your night on the town. (more…)
