You came, you saw, you voted, and one submission stole the show in this year’s legally themed Halloween costume contest. Our winner took 41% of the vote this year. Making legally themed Halloween costumes isn’t an easy feat, and this year’s submissions were quite creative. As usual, we applaud the brave souls who subjected themselves to our judgment.
And now, the moment you’ve been waiting for. Who won our annual costume contest?
It’s none other than Warhol’s Soup Law, coming to us from the University of South Dakota School of Law’s legal writing team. They’re dressed as Andy Warhol’s Cambell’s soup cans, complete with law-themed soup names. Check out their amazing costumes, below (click to enlarge).
