Tubby's Golden Lantern'sCostume Contest

Tubby’s Golden Lantern heldit’s Halloween Costume Con-test on Halloween night, to a

packed house of ghouls and goblins, andmany other spooky notables. BartendersStephen, Lance and Wilhelmina, did anoutstanding job of keeping the crowd lu-bricated with alcoholic potions. And not tobe outdone was Rick, the owner, lookinglovely in his gypsy, pirate wench outfit, withhis lover, Rick, being an ultra glamorousMother Superior (whom I hope will takeSister Mary Isawhore to task for growing abeard).

The contest was headed by TheMummy - Rikki Redd, and Count Dracula- Winston Gray and emcee’d by The Un-dertaker - Gary Glitter. They had theirhands full, as an extremely large amountof contestants had to be narrowed down,according to audience participationscreaming for the one they wanted to win.

With the likes of Zombie Cheerlead-ers, gay Spiderman, Zombie Bowlers fromHell, the Stick People, Red Riding from theHood, and Cereal Killer, it was very toughto decide who would be the winners. But,it all boiled down to: Bud Mummy - $25 bartab, Pumpkin Heads - $50 cash, andDouble Header - $100 cash. Very excel-lent costumes by all!
