Title: Halloween Bitcoin Meetup
Post by: Phinnaeus Gage on October 08, 2011, 05:23:52 PM
I live in Sandwich, Illinois. I will travel up to 100 miles to attend a Halloween party donning a My Little Pony costume.

My only requests are:

  • At least 5 other Bitcoiners present in costume.
  • A source to get my costume (6'3"; 255 lbs (well distributed--no beer gut, etc.).

Just a fun meetup. Booze is OK, though I may drink very little (not a pussy, but don't want to be pulled over and have a mug shot of a drunk My Little Pony plastered on the internet, though that would be hilarious--Headline: My Little Pony Arrested for DUI)

This is a serious request. Any Bitcoiners in the Chicagoland area game? I need a costume rented or hand made, of which I will pay for. First round of drinks are on me--I mean, I will pay for them.

if you got a wife, im sure she could whip something up after shes done cooking and cleaning your home.

or if your serious, look into going to a crazy tailor. bring in a picture and see if they will do it. although it would not be "cheap".

Single, but if somebody else has a wife that's not busy that day...

Yes, I could source it out to a local seamstress, but wanted to throw it out there in case someone knew of a costume shop off the top of their head around my neck of the woods.

So far, I have one person interested in this fun Halloween meetup--me. Anyone else? First round of drinks are on me.

Perhaps we could book a private club or crash somebody else's party. Or attend one of those larger Halloween costume parties and pass out Bitcoin lit.

Yes, I'm making fun of the idea, but truly serious of following through with the impromptu event.

Surely, someone here in the Chicagoland area can dress up as a giant Bitcoin. I'm going as Pinkie Pie. Another person can carry a globe on his shoulders and go as Atlas. Or go as a couple--Bruce and Ed, come to mind. Another, can wear several Korean ties. Or cover your whole body with poop and go as an...wait for it...SA member.

Hell, let's take it a step further and have several micro meetups nationwide (or worldwide, depending if Halloween is celebrated in your country). Afterwards, we'll post pics, compare notes, have a few laughs, and perhaps even convert a few over to Bitcoin. We could even dub it HallowBit, for shits and giggles.

So please, please, consider the idea. I want to dress up as Pinkie Pie so badly and hang out with others of my ilk (WTF is an ilk?).

Just to show you all that I'm not afraid to don a PP outfit, in a few minutes I'm going to post a pic or two of me from past Halloweens.
