This year's most popular Halloween costume? Pac-Man

Club Namco wants you to know that the Pac-Man head is this year's most popular Halloween costume, leaving even Mario and Luigi in its wake. We're sure there isn't any bias here, since they make and sell the thing. They must have done extensive research with graphs, pie charts and focus groups to back this claim up. Rush out now or be the most unpopular kid on your block. No word yet on the Ms. Pac-Man head situation.

Awesome! The Pac-Man head link is fantastic also. I just picked up a used copy of Pac-Man Vs recently so maybe I will "borrow" this costume idea

Groan...the link only goes to the webstore where they sell head-sized Pac-Man stuff. Who knows where to get the full body ones?

Pac-Man?! Pshh! Pong is so much better.
"Hey what's your costume?"
"I'm the Left Pong Paddle."
