OC Costume is Finalist in Patch's National Halloween Contest
A Mission Viejo man will collect $250 for the best entry in California and could win the $5,000 grand prize in Patch's Best Halloween Costume in America competition.
You know what they say—no (goblin) guts, no glory.
Congratulations to Jason Smith, a history teacher who has been chosen as the California winner of Patch’s Best Halloween Costume in America Contest.
Smith will receive $250 for winning California and move on to compete for the $5,000 national grand prize.

Parents posted hundreds of costume photos of themselves and their families from this Halloween or from years past. We had lots of ghouls, ghosts, and Honey Boo Boos to choose from, but Smith's porta-potty costume won us over. (For more laughs, be sure to watch the attached video of the costume too.)
The grand prize winner will be announced Monday, Nov. 12. To see other Orange County contest entries, click here.
