× CHRIS CHAMBERS - STEPHEN KING'S THE BODY/STAND BY ME ×

CHRIS CHAMBERS

Character: Yeah, this is really only a pair of jeans and a t-shirt (and candy cigarettes, lol), so it's basically the easiest costume ever. But Ashley and I couldn't help but wear these at Dragon*Con, complete with a gun (to shoot a trash can), "smokes", Gordie's Boy Scout knapsack and, of course, LEECHES!!! Stand By Me is an amazing movie and The Body (what it was adapted from) is an incredible story. So we took the outfits from SbM and wandered around the convention blabbing about dead bodies and how dorky Teddy and Verno were sometimes. These were so simple and comfortable but so much fun -- anyone want to be Teddy or Vern in the future, you let us know!

Fun things: Comfort! Candy cigarettes! Chris Chambers! Leeches! XD
Bad things: NOTHING! Well, pulling the leeches off was a little painful, but not too bad. Hehe.

Worn at: Dragon*Con 2008
Status: Active

Pictures:
Look at us trying to be all tough and crap, LOL. Ashley was supposed to do the whole Gordie-crying thing but I was saying a bunch of stupid crap so she just tried not to laugh instead. Hehe. We were blabbing about something stupid and this shot came out pretty cool. :D OH SNAP BADASS WITH THE CIGARETTES. XD OMG, remember the part where they shoot the trash can and freak out? YES.
