People are predicting that the Balloon Boy will be one of the top Halloween costumes this year. Do you think so?

But how does one go about making a Balloon Boy costume? Well, off the top of my head, I’m thinking aluminum foil and lots of it.
OK, seriously, if I were planning on sporting this costume, I’d probably wear a cardboard box around my waist with a silver sheet draped around it. And of course a nametag that reads Falcon.
