A silly WWYD (Breaking Bad-related)

[RoxMonster]

H and I always go to this huge Halloween bash at a banquet facility/bar where they have live music and everyone goes all out with costumes. They have costume contests, etc.

We really want to go as Walt and Jesse this year since we're BB obsessed and think it would be funny, but I am torn between going as regular Walt (or Heisenberg) and Jesse or as cooks.

The latter is cheaper. I can get a pretty much identical yellow hazmat suit online for $12 and the face respirator for about 11 bucks. It would be more expensive to piece together the clothing items for Heisenberg/Jesse individually (like I don't have a baggy jacket or t-shirt or beanie to wear and H would need the hat, glasses, windbreaker, etc). However, the hazmat suits would be decidedly more uncomfortable and hotter. Plus I feel like going to the bathroom would be a PITA.

So which would you do: comfort or cost? The party's about 3 weeks away, so I need to get on ordering our costumes.

ETA: And either way, we'll be carrying bags of blue rock candy.

Yellow suits.

I was going to go as Heisenberg, but the party was cancelled :/

Yeah, I think the yellow suits would be recognizable too. I might cut the feet off of them because I feel like that would be difficult/slippery to walk in.

I think you should do the yellow suits, it's way easier and cheaper.

I feel vindicated by this thread, btw. I've been wanting DH and I to go as Walt and Jesse for a few years, but we always end up debating between the yellow suits or regular Walt/Heisenberg and Jesse garb. DH thinks the yellow suits aren't recognizable enough. Now I have to show him this, lol.

Of course this year I'm obviously pregnant, so he thinks I should go as Skyler, but that isn't nearly as fun. But I'm not sure pregnant Jesse Pinkman is appropriate either .

LOL And I had the opposite issue. I was originally going to go as Skylar and wear a bump so that it would be a little more obvious who I was, but I didn't want any of our friends thinking I was actually pregnant!
