Chicago's Halloween Costume Bash!
Boooooo!
It was a spooktacular evening at Logan Square's Stan Mansion Halloween night! Masterfully decorated by Art of Imagination, and staffed and serviced by D'Absolute Catering, the Mansion was ready to rock! The Chicago Yelp Elite Squad came out in full-costumed, over-the-top glory for a party of dress up, drinking, dancing and devilish good fun!
Creativity abound when yelpers get the command to costume! The winner of this hotly contested contest was Karl H as not only a stripper, but a stripper pole! Jaik S also placed with his ensemble as "shower guy." Other highlights included group costumes consisting of the entire Alice & Wonderland character set, the folks dressed up as all members of Clue (John B as Col Mustard? Perfect!), and Noah B as a gnome, complete with dance moves. Shake yo thing, gnome man! Seriously though, there were just too many good ones to name...check out the evidence by Dan Gin and Matt Ginger, some of Yelp's fav photogs that were on hand to capture the madness!
Treats! D'Absolute Catering not only staffed the bar and ballroom, but also provided delicious meatballs and bruschetta for yelpers to munch on! In addition, Moonshine came equipped with BBQ pork sliders, a taco bar, chips & salsa and rounded up "chicken on a stick" from Skewerz to keep all the ghosts and goblins full and happy! Oh, and how could we forget the sweet temptation of More Cupcakes? Yelpers got to sample salted carmel and double chocolate mini cakes of goodness....mmmm!
Also, a big thank you to our "buzz" sponsors for providing the liquid love! Trumer Pils Beer and Red Truck Wines were both flowing endlessly, which provided some with the needed courage to shake themselves on the dance floor to the beats of Nikki C! Keeping us all hydrated was no easy feat, but Fuze did the job!
A big thanks to all of the sponsors that made this night a success, and Tiffany C and
Nick N (Glinda and Tin Man) from Yelp Denver for helping out!
Until next time, SYOY!
