Any Jewish gliders out there using their segway for a costume on Purim?

Maybe a gliding mordechai with a long robe or something.

P.S. Purim is basically Jewish Halloween- a much ifferent story of how it came about, but we dress up, and give out 'salach manos' - items of food- to friends. Mordechai is the hero of the story of Purim. Him and his neice, queen esther saved the Jews from extermination in Persia.

Like I said, probably a long robe would do.

Maybe put a hoola hoop around the bottom rim so it doesn't snag in the wheels.

I haven't dressed up for Purim for many years... but as it happens, it was a friend's 40th birthday recently with a theme of "come as your favourite movie or TV character".

I dressed up as "Klinger" from M*A*S*H, although not being 100% true to the show, I was riding around on Seggie.

Somewhat too embarrassed to show photos of this on the Internet, but I must say that I got many compliments.

Who said that you shouldn't get carried away on your Segway?

I dressed up as a Jamaican, I just used it to deliver shalach manos, it was awesome.

Everyone loved it.

A lot of people asked me if I rented it for purim. A lot of people rent limmos or whatever, maybe I should do some marketing for next Purim.

It was probably the most I used my segway on a single day.
