Genius Halloween Costumes — Zoltar on a Segway

Meet Jonathan Gleich. Last Halloween, he caught my eye at the Village Halloween Parade with his  Segway Pirate costume (and his appropriately swashbucklin' pirate attitude).

This year, Jonathan  spent $5,000 and countless hours on this magnificent Zoltar on a Segway costume. It is indeed a thing of beauty.
