FEATURE: Legends crew garner up high celebrity status

"You guys are skaters!" screamed the drunk hooligans to the Legends crew.

"No," in return, "We're Legends of the Hidden Temple!"

Excitedly making the connection, the hooligans respond, "Oh! Blue Barracudas!"

It was this kind of attention the Legends crew received all night, as party by party that they walked by, balconies of people would holler, clap, and cheer, screaming "Great costumes!"

"I really want to take my picture with you guys." "Can I take a picture with you guys?" "Oh my god, those costumes are amazing. Can I take a picture with you guys?" "That is ingenious. Way to go guys."

The compliments never ceased.

At KFC on Stimson, Brett Bynane and Jaimie Weiss were hounded repeatedly while ordering by a couple that were obsessed with the show.

"Where's your temple guard?" the one kid kept asking. This was a frequent question asked throughout the night from all costume admirers.

Some admirers actually volunteered to take on the role of being a temple guard.

Up on Court Street around 10:45pm, Nick Parsons, Bynane and Weiss were again stopped literally in the middle intersection of Washington and Court as numerous people surrounded them in a circle, flashing pictures and shouting compliments.

"Best Halloween costume. Hands down," said one girl right before she dropped her camera. (Related Story: Camera safety)

With the copycat Legends costume group running around, some people were confused.

"Didn't I just see you guys at Riverpark?" commented one admirer, very confusingly at one point in the night. The real Legends crew though, mind you, were never present at Riverpark.

The fact that the Legends group will now be a part of these random peoples' lives who wanted pictures with them is just insane.

"It was as if we were celebrities being mobbed by the paparazzi... It was great."
