The top prize for Halloween costumes at the Freaker’s Ball on Friday at Skipper’s Smokehouse went to these guys:

Reko Rivera, left, and John Savio, right, have the best Apple iPhone costumes in the country. Their YouTube video is a huge hit. And they won at Skipper’s.

They are wearing working 42-inch LCD TVs. The costumes each have iPhones mounted on top and weigh 85 pounds each because there’s a car battery required to power the display. The iPhone can be manipulated by the person wearing the costume—the interactions show up in real time on the TV.
