Horrors Here's Your Halloween Costume: Chief Big Wood

Posted by Wm.™ Steven Humphrey on Fri, Oct 21, 2011 at 1:29 PM

"Chief Big Wood": Only $54.50.

This chief has a big canoe waiting for you! Invite her into your dugout and show her a naughty native time dressed in our Chief Big Wood Costume.

Yes, this is racist. But at least they're insinuating that Native Americans are well-endowed. So there's that?

THIS IS NOT RACIST. IT'S HONORING AND REVERING A BARBARIC CULTURE THAT TAUGHT US WHAT MAIZE IS (SPOILER ALERT: IT'S CORN).

Not as racist as the "native American boy" costume I saw today featuring an adorable white boy with face paint and a feathered/fringed leather vest.

Totally racist bullshit. Plus the afro wigs. I never got the concept of dressing up as other ordinary people.

I like that he's standing in front of Ed Gein's house, which is badly in need of a pressure wash.
