It’s kinda sad that Halloween is over … but on to Thanksgiving!
And at least Halloween 2023 was a banger, especially in sports. Athletes all around the shop took the opportunity to dress up as monsters, superheroes and more, putting a spotlight on their fun personalities that you usually wouldn’t see during in-play intensity.
But one costume that stood out in particular was donned by San Antonio Spurs rookie sensation Victor Wembanyama, with the 7-foot, 4-inch big-man wearing both a bodysuit and a tuxedo to become … SLENDERMAN! … ahead of the Spurs‘ road game against the Phoenix Suns.
Just check out this genius:

Man, he made that work so well, which is easy to do when you’re that tall and have the size of arms that man has … goodness gracious, it’s so fitting. Nice work, Wemby.
But, like I said earlier, he wasn’t the only one who got in on the Halloween fun in the sports world:
