We're Calling It Now: Sandwich Guy Is the DC Halloween Costume of the Year - Washingtonian
"Rising to fame for tossing a sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection officer in August, Dunn has become the definitive folk hero of the federal takeover, inspiring Banksy-style street art across the city. Federal prosecutors have charged the former Department of Justice paralegal with misdemeanor assault after a grand jury failed to indict Dunn on the initial felony charge. His image-pink collared shirt, khaki shorts, a sandwich in hand and then suddenly not in hand-is now an indelible icon of this moment in Washington."
"Lucky for you, Dunn's look is easy to replicate, thanks to the fact that it really is just an outfit for an average night out. All you need is some variation of a pink collared top (Dunn's appears to feature a fun lace design), beige bottoms, and a Subway sandwich. The best part of this costume is that it's also deeply practical: No matter your plans, you'll have a snack ready to go."
Sean Charles Dunn, nicknamed Sandwich Guy, rose to prominence after tossing a sandwich at a Customs and Border Protection officer in August. Federal prosecutors charged the former Department of Justice paralegal with misdemeanor assault after a grand jury declined to return a felony indictment. Dunn's image—pink collared shirt, khaki shorts, and a Subway sandwich—has become a recognizable local icon and inspired Banksy-style street art. The outfit is simple to replicate for Halloween using a pink collared top, beige bottoms, and a sandwich, and doubles as a practical costume with a ready snack. Pilgrimages to 14th and U streets, Northwest, mark the original scene.
