You wanted to see some videos? We’ve got videos of several different flavors. Here you go.
First we’ll start off with a short video of the youngest kids doing their “march in a circle” so the judges get a better view of all the costumes. Does the phrase “herding cats” come to mind? (1:36)
And now here’s a short video of the middle age range of kids showing off their costumes. (1:50)
And, lastly, here are the oldest kids showing off their creations. (1:39)
I thought maybe you’d like to see how the late evening crowd did with a Conga Line. Not that well, actually. (0:44)
Now here’s an interesting game. If you’ve ever wondered what Beer Pong is, here’s the women’s contest. (1:18)
And here’s the men’s edition. Sorry it took a minute for me to get the camera pointed at the actual winner. (1:10)
Now we’re getting into the meat of the evening. Here’s my first look at the eventual winners as they entered the hall. If I’m correct, they’re called Spirit Hunters from Dark Crystal. You can see some pictures of them toward the end of the Week 8 Pictures page. They were exceptionally well done. (0:31)
And, lastly, here’s a fairly long video (11:41) of what was supposed to be the march in a circle for the adults so the judges could try to pick out the winners. I couldn’t really shorten it because I kept hoping I’d capture more of the costumes. If you can detect a circle, let me know. The floor was so congested it was more like a march in place. (11:41)
There. That’s it for the videos. I hope they provided at least some enjoyment. Now, you can either use the Back button in your browser to return or select here to return to the pictures for Week 8.
