Polk County Sheriff’s Office Has A Hilarious Halloween Costume Idea

Author Ted Kamikaze and Jen Glorioso
October 26th, 2022 12:16 PM

Still looking for the perfect Halloween costume? Look no further! The Polk County Sheriff’s Office has the complete Grady Judd costume.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office jumped on a new social media trend recently. If you haven’t seen any of the memes, people have been editing photos of Spirit Halloween costume bags to funny and (obviously) fake costumes. The sheriff’s office decided to hop on this trend and make a costume of their own. The complete Sheriff Grady Judd costume comes with 6 accessories. Check out the social post below.

We'd get one just for the Moonpie alone. #PCSO #WaitUntilNovember1stAndGetIt70PercentOff #ItIsNotRealFolks #WeDoHaveRealDeputyCostumesForKidsThough https://t.co/E9rUklyCG4 pic.twitter.com/WFs5r1Dc0v

— Polk County Sheriff 🚔 Grady Judd (@PolkCoSheriff) October 26, 2022

News Channel 8 pointed out that the Moonpie and 7-Up “accessories” are an ode to a memorable Judd quote. He was addressing Polk County’s murder rate in October 2021, with Judd saying, “Just chill out. Drink a 7up. Eat a MoonPie. Quit murdering people.”

Our favorite feature of the costume is the Polk County Dictionary so people can speak “Polk County.” Although the costume is obviously fake, Judd pointed out that they DO have a REAL Sheriff Grady Judd costume for kids, complete with an inflatable Polk County Sheriff car. The costume is available for pickup or order online. Click here to see the costume and how to order one!

5 Infamously Haunted Spots In The Tampa Area

Ever feel like you’re being watched? These five spots are said to be among the most haunted in Tampa Bay. Ghost sightings, strange noises, pianos playing with no pianist and other unexplained phenomena make these some fun places to visit for Halloween. If you dare.

  • Florida Brewery Company

    It’s not a brewery anymore. Attorneys occupy the space now on 5th Avenue. Tampa Terrors says the bar made a big mistake when they decided to serve up free beer when they opened. Fights broke out and one man died and they say the beer “never left his hand!”

  • Tampa Theatre

    This place has embraced its hauntedness so much they do ghost tours. If you’ve ever dropped in during Halloween season to watch a classic horror movie during their “Nightmare on Frankland Street” series, it’s not hard to believe the place is haunted. The creepy vibes are abundant as you wander through the classic theatre when it’s dimly lit. Foster Finley was a projectionist and is said to have never left after his passing. Some say they’ve seen him enjoying a cigarette as smokes comes out of the projection booth. And some still hear music from an organist Rosa Rio who died at 107, according to Channel 8.

  • The Cuban Club

    Two died about 100 years when there was a theater. One was an actor who died by suicide ON STAGE, according to Tampa Terrors. The other was a board member who got into an argument. Both are said to still makes occasional appearances. They say there have also been reports of a piano playing – even though there was nobody near it. Other sightings include a female ghost in a “misty dress” and a boy playing with a ball. The Cuban Club even made the list of the Top 10 Most Haunted Places on the Travel Channel.

     

  • University of Tampa

    Plant Hall used to be a hotel. Babe Ruth and Teddy Roosevelt were some famous guests, according to Tampa Terros. Students say they’ve seen some wild things at night. But with college students, that’s par for the course. But they say to keep an eye out for a man in a brown suit, long gray hair and scary red eyes. It’s thought to be Henry Plant.

  • Sunshine Skyway Bridge

    When the bridge was hit in 1980, it collapsed and 35 were killed. Some say they’ve seen a ghost bus as they fished at the pier.
