You may find this "somewhat insulting", but I do think we think alike

In 1973, at our mixed bowling league's Halloween party I was dressed up as Bobby Riggs. That summer, Riggs played Billy Jean King in the "Battle of the Sexes" tennis match.

I styled my hair to look like Riggs, wore dark rimmed glasses and modified a broom to look like a gigantic tennis racket. The front of my T-shirt read "If you don't know me, I'll
turn my back to you." The back of my T-shirt read "Bobby Riggs".

I was awarded "The most creative costume" prize at the party (a bottle of Southern Comfort).
