Halloween is just right around the corner and it’s likely that most New Yorkers haven’t found time in their busy schedules to get themselves a costume. Aside from being pricey, most costumes are far from original, so you might find yourself searching frantically at the last minute for that wig you wore a year ago or squeezing into that “Thing 1” shirt you got at Disneyland, that for some reason still fits.
Maybe you’re not THAT desperate for a costume, and you’ve managed to find a “sexy fire(wo)man” suit that shows off enough skin to get you pneumonia. If you are trying to get a Rescue Squad together, we can assure you that you will encounter a truck-load of other sexy firefighters. So if your intent was to be original, this might not be the best bet.
