Happy HallowMEME Costume Party

 

Urlesque.com and Know Your Meme are throwing another internet-themed costume party, “Happy HallowMEME Party” on Halloween Eve (October 30th) at 9pm at Fontana’s Bar (105 Eldridge Street between Grand and Broome).

You may remember our visit to the previous extravaganza, A Night to ReMEMEber, which involved a similar congregation of internet kids dressing up and getting down in various web-inspired costumes.

“Unlike any Halloween party you’ve ever attended, Happy HallowMEME will celebrate web culture with guests donning costumes celebrating notorious web memes and viral video stars.”

Matt at X-Entertainment buys life-sized Jason

 

Geeks of any caliber will likely be familiar with the X-Entertainment blog, run by a guy named Matt Caracappa. He’s a master of 80s pop culture, and I also enjoy his occasional work in ToyFare magazine.

Anyhow, he today chronicles a recent trip to K-Mart, where he went in to buy Halloween Cap’n Crunch, but came out having purchased a life-size animatronic Jason Voorhees. Go check it out.
