12. Showgirl

Showgirls are a symbol of Las Vegas around the world. So, break out your glue gun, get a truckload of sequins and get to work. A key part of going as a showgirl for Halloween is mastering the “bevel.” That’s the bent position of a showgirl’s leg when she’s posing. (See the showgirls above for reference.) Also needed for your showgirl costume: Feathers, crystal rhinestones and sass.

16. Brass Boar

The Boar’s Head Bar at downtown’s Main Street Station is home to an impressive brass boar. This huge brass boar is from Nice, France, and was originally part of a fountain. Main Street Station is filled with antiques and curiosities that can serve as inspiration for your Halloween costume, so stroll around, and make sure to get a “Guide to Artifacts, Antiques and Artworks” at the hotel’s front desk. When you’re making your boar costume, pay special attention to the lower tusks, also called “cutters.”

17. Mobster

It’s no secret the history of Las Vegas is a colorful one. There’s more than a little color on display at downtown’s wildly popular Mob Museum, just a couple of blocks from Fremont Street Experience. This museum is bursting with stories of “made men” and the law enforcement officials who took them down. Take your pick of gangsters like “Bugsy” Siegel, Tony “The Ant” Spilotro, Frank “Lefty” Rosenthal and others, but remember, getting mobbed up has its perils. Just ask “Bugsy.

18. Slushy Drink Cups

Fremont Street is known for its Viva Vision light show, sure, but it’s also known for being a street party like no other, including guests enjoying frosty beverages from distinctive receptacles in the shapes of footballs, boots and even human legs. If you’re feeling ambitious, try making a costume inspired by one of these shapes, or come up with one of your own.

20. Vegas Vic

Vegas Vic is one of the most recognizable symbols of downtown Las Vegas, Fremont Street Experience and Las Vegas. He has a long and storied history, including being built in 1951 for the Pioneer Club (now a gift shop), and his original “Howdy Podner” greeting. That sound effect was silenced in 1966 when actor Lee Marvin complained about it being too loud during the filming of his movie, “The Professionals.” The voice of Vegas Vic, by the way, was Zack Hale Jr. Read more. Vic’s arm stopped waving in 1991, but his charm still makes visitors feel welcome on Fremont Street. Your Vegas Vic costume will have to include a wide-brimmed cowboy hat (at a rakish angle), red bandana, checkered shirt, blue pants, boots with spurs and generous amounts of neon.
