i need some ideas for a halloween costume for 2008!

Im going to do a contest for horse and rider costumes... does anybody have any ideas I have a list going but I want a really unique and out-there costume! Please help!!thanks!!!

What about Elton John and Marilyn Monroe?

If your horse is brown you could do scooby and shaggy?

A cow and a milk maid?

A camel and a genie?

I'll think of more...this is kinda fun!

What color is your horse?

I've done several with my horse - he's all black.

One year I painted him to look like a zebra, one year we were Ringwraiths (from Lord of the Rings).

This year I'm painting orange stripes on him and he's going to be a tiger and I'm going to be an Indiana Jones type lion tamer.

Other ideas are:

Cartoon characters (little mermaid is one that is cool to see)
Famous duos (bonny and clyde, batman and robin, jack sparrow and wil turner)
Themes - (medieval- space-western-oriental aka crouching tiger hidden dragon- country-)

I have a lot of ideas actually but it really helps to know what the horse looks like.

I love the zebra and dragon ones! Too cute!

LOL those are cute.

Dumas, you have a lot of good ideas- I really like the Scooby & Shaggy one. :)

How about...spongebob & patrick? Romeo & Juliet? Lol idk

How about "Ant on a picinc blanket" "Knight on its horse" "Cowgirl on a western horse" " lifegaurd on a blanket" " a sheep hearder and a sheep" " Angel on a horse with wings" " Little red riding hood and the big bad wolf" " bumble bees" " An elf with a reindeer" "Chefs" " McDonalds fast food"

This wedsite shows some of the things that I said. I hope this help!

I did one one year where I put a straw hat on my horse with his ears poking out and then I wore overalls and pig tails. I had a red bandana on and then I had a stick with a carrot tied to a string, I rode bareback with rope for reigns and held the carrot infront of him to make him go... it was pretty cute....

:) There are some really clever ideas in response to your costume request.
What came to my mind was a farmer on a tractor... with of course the horse being disguised as a tractor with "wheels" where your stirrups are.
It seems like poetic justice to me.
