Go Skins Posted January 7, 2013 Report Share Posted January 7, 2013 [url="http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/wp/2013/01/07/alf-at-the-redskins-game/"]http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/dc-sports-bog/wp/2013/01/07/alf-at-the-redskins-game/[/url] Childhood friends and lifelong Skins fans Ankur Patel and Ryan Fields, plus Patel’s cousin Jony, were together watching Alfred Morris polish off the Cowboys in the final week of the regular season. That’s when they decided they needed to pay tribute at the first home playoff game in 13 years. “Somebody should dress up in an Alf costume,” one of them suggested, in honor of one of Morris’s roughly 400 nicknames. The trio wondered if they should draw straws to determine the costume-wearer. “I said [i]no, I volunteer[/i],” Fields told me on Monday. “[i]I’m going to do it[/i]. I wasn’t really looking to get any attention or anything. I’ve painted my face to go to the games before, and I’m always up for doing the crazy stuff.” So the 28-year old season-ticket holder from Gaithersburg ordered an Alf costume off Amazon for about $80. It arrived on Thursday, and he posted an image of himself inside the furball on Facebook. “We gotta make the eye and nose holes bigger,” he wrote. “Can’t see a damn thing…or breathe for that matter.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
