That was five innings ago

The Frog Costume has gone from $25 to almost $40 on amazon over the last week. There's an army brewing.

Lol i meant the eye hole aint big. U cant see out the damn thing

I really like the inflatable frog costume as a protest tactic- it obscures nearly all identifying physical traits, while also allowing good practical measures like body armor to be concealed behind a unintimidating, whimsical exterior.

Visibility is probably a concern though
