Halloween fans show their stripes!

The NFL and the zebras may be nearing an end to the lockout that turned the first three weeks of the football season into an on-the-field free-for-all and a PR disaster, but guess what’s the hottest-selling Halloween costume at iParty?

None other than the blind replacement ref and his cane!

“After Monday night’s game we have certainly had a run on these and I’m not surprised,moncler jackets men” said iParty party gal Dorice Dionne, whose Dedham-based chain is selling the blind ref costume for $22.RadioShack Cycling99. Such a bargain!

No word on whether they’ve had any orders from Green Bay, where the Cheese-heads are more than a little cheesed off about the whole situation. And they’re not the only ones. Because according to a new survey by Channel Media & Market Research in Burlington, pretty much every NFL fan is sick of the not-ready-for-prime-time replacements!

A whopping 72 percent of the 31,000 people surveyed said the Lingerie League refs have “impacted the outcome” of NFL games this season. And although the respondents were split on which side they backed in the labor dispute, there was near-unanimous agreement that the lockout needed to end.

“I think what people are basically saying ... is that while they are still watching NFL football, these officials and referees are detracting from their enjoyment,SAXO BANK Cycling” said Channel’s Susan Mulcahy.

“Long games, safety concerns for the players and a lack of knowledge of the rules have given fans the perception that these replacement officials are jeopardizing the integrity of the game. They believe ... this can be and should be resolved,” Mulcahy added.
