Sports Fans Who Really Love Halloween
Happy Halloween, everyone. In honor of this extravagant holiday, we figured we would dig into our archives and show you some sports fans who really love this time of year.
We've scoured NHL, NBA and, of course, NFL games in search of the most legendary Halloween junkies around. Here now is a look at 15 fans who have an inkling for Halloween and all of the pumpkin-spiced madness it brings with it.
Headless Pete Rozelle
1 of 16
Don't look now, but it's headless Jim McMahon and Rey Mysterio covered in New England Patriots garb.
Why this "headless" fan has former NFL commissioner Pete Rozelle's last name on his sweatband is beyond comprehension. No worries, though—it's Halloween, and that means we're all allowed to let loose.
The Scariest Thing You'll Ever See at a Hockey Game
2 of 16
It doesn't matter if it's Halloween or not, no one needs to see this when he attends a sporting event. This frightening woman showed up at a Los Angeles Kings game and probably gave small children nightmares.
Imagine if she was sitting in your seat? Would you even bother to say anything? Or would you make the usher go down while you pretend not to know what's going on? Please share your answer with us in the comment section.
Welcome to the CFL
3 of 16
Welcome to the CFL! In case you aren't familiar with how the Canadian Football League works, this guy greets you in the parking lot and guides you to your seats.
Alright, that's not true. Nevertheless, this Canadian version of the Joker really is going for it on Halloween. The best part of his getup has to be the giant clapper he's holding. Where do you even buy something like that?

The Royals Monster
4 of 16
Ladies and gentleman, I give you the scariest-looking Kansas City Royals fan of all time. He's blue, he has no teeth and his hair is the same color as Chlorine-laden pool water.
It's really a shame the Royals didn't win the World Series this year. Because if they did, you can bet the farm this guy would have been tearing it up on Halloween.
Now we may have to wait until next year to catch another glimpse of the forgotten member of the Blue Man Group.
New England's Very Own 'Tales from the Crypt' Guy
5 of 16
Don't be fooled, that's not Patriots head coach Bill Belichick. That's the Crypt Keeper from Tales from the Crypt attending a Pats game.
The fan behind the mask deserves credit for his attire and for the fact that he probably struggled to see any of the action on the field.
You really have to be in the Halloween spirit to pay all of that loot and wear a mask to a football game.
Frat Zombies
6 of 16
Look, everybody, it's a herd of fraternity zombies. They usually can be seen attending football games, cheering for their respective teams.
The costumes may not be clever, but at least there's a bunch of them. Remember, kids, there's always strength in numbers.
The Nightmare Before Christmas on Ice
7 of 16
You can't ever go wrong dressing up as Jack Skellington from The Nightmare Before Christmas. Just looking at this picture, you can tell this guy was the best-dressed person in the arena that night.
Take a peak at the poor sap standing near him in the gorilla mask. He never had a chance to be special standing next to the horrifyingly dapper Jack Skellington.
Darth Raven
8 of 16
This fan has the right idea. He or she went out and converted a Darth Vader mask into a Ravens version. Just look at the sunlight bouncing off that purple mask. It doesn't get any cooler than that.
Chucky in the Stands
9 of 16
When you see this picture, the first thing that comes to mind is, "From the creators of The McCarthys comes Adventures with Chucky, NBC's witty sitcom based on Chucky being randomly thrust into the real world."
This shot of a faux Chucky relaxing in the stands at a football game is all sorts of weird. You have to really be dedicated to your craft to put this outfit together. Kudos to the person—or child—behind the mask, you are a winner.
The 'Worst Costume Ever' Brothers
10 of 16
Utah Jazz fans unite! The crayon brothers are here to save the day.
Even though these two kids came up with the worst costumes in the history of the world, at least they look happy. Isn't that the most important thing?
Based on how the Jazz have performed over the last couple of years, let's all just agree to cut them some slack and move on.
Faux Beetlejuice
11 of 16
Say his name three times and you'll wake up in a pool of sweat.
Have you ever wanted a sequel to Tim Burton's Beetlejuice? Well, here it is.
It's about what happens when Beetlejuice gets older. He buys an iPhone with an indestructible case, sells auto insurance and goes to football games. That's it. That's the whole sequel. You're welcome.
Peyton Manning's Ghouls
12 of 16
You think you're a big Peyton Manning fan? Sorry to break it to you, but you have nothing on these guys.
There's no question that putting these outfits together had to be expensive, not to mention time-consuming. But hey, at least they came out looking like winners. Props, guys, these costumes actually make Manning look like he plays for the Oakland Raiders.
Slap Shot
13 of 16
Now this is what we're talking about. Forget food and water, seeing these three guys dress up as the Hanson brothers from Slap Shot is all you need out of life.
Channeling the poetic words of Wayne Campbell and Garth Algar, "We're not worthy!"
Everything about these costumes is remarkable.
Life as a Saints Fan
14 of 16
When you first look at this picture, all you see is two New Orleans Saints fans wearing pumpkins over their heads. But look again. Focus your eyes on the Saints logo, and you'll actually see their eyes.
What a sweet costume. They get to wear pumpkins on their heads and watch the game. Now that's thinking outside of the box.
The Phantom of the FedExForum
15 of 16
Did you know that if the lighting is just right late at night, you can actually see a phantom floating around the rafters of the FedExForum in Memphis, Tennessee?
The image above is the first and only picture ever taken of the creature.
All right, that story is made up. But really, who cares? It's Halloween. Let the phantom of the FedExForum be real for just a few hours.
Kristen Stewart's Doppelganger
16 of 16
Don't be too disappointed, that's not Kristen Stewart attending a Florida Panthers game. It's just her doppelganger drenched in face paint.
Major props go out to this lady. Not only is she in the Halloween spirit, but she also did a great job with her costume.
