Halloween is on Sunday, which means we’re sure to see many creative costumes during trick-or-treating that night and even on Saturday leading up to it.
And it probably won’t be surprising to know that there will be at least one person dressed up as Lane Kiffin in that mix. The Ole Miss head coach has been involved in a number of notably viral moments during the 2021 season.
As you can see, Charlie Mellown, a 20-month-old from Andalusia, Ala., was showing off his own Kiffin costume on Friday:

Of course, the costume isn’t complete without a golf ball, especially after Kiffin was pelted by one in his return to Tennessee on Oct. 16, and some popcorn, in reference to Kiffin’s “Get your popcorn ready” quip to CBS’s Jamie Erdahl prior to the Alabama game on Oct. 2 that ended up backfiring.
On the field, Kiffin and the Rebels will look to avoid a fright of a loss as they are set to take on Auburn at Jordan-Hare Stadium. ESPN is set to show the game, which will kick off from the Plains at 7 p.m. ET.
