Halloween!
Empirical proof that Halloween and improv definitely do mix.
The 28th was the last Friday before Halloween — widely regarded as the best holiday ever — so naturally we encouraged everyone at the Purdue Improv Club meeting to come in costume. If you were there, you would’ve seen:

- Matt –> laid-off Delphi employee
- Ashley –> a roadkill squirrel
- Andy –> a cursor (pronounced “cursar“)
- Ryan –> Benji
- John –> the Internet
- me –> Wikipedia

Don’t forget the changelog on the back! When you wear the costume, carry some markers with you so other people can add or edit entries.

That was a GREAT time! I’d honestly say the Wikipedia costume was the most creative there. And I’m not just saying that because, you know, this is your blog and all.
Also, the pics I have from the event can be found here, for those who would like to judge for themselves.
