I honestly believe that the success of this costume will be more about how you carry yourself than what you wear. But definitely get a green shirt, pants, and hat. Add some yellow highlights to it with patches, paint, whatever, and plan on spending the night squirming around on the floor. Or you could also get one of these T-shirts, a hat, and green pants.

Bronze medalist Stephen Nedoroscik became one of the Olympic Games darlings. He went viral for not only his performance during the games, but his “Clark Kent/Superman” looks. You could go two ways with your costume, either using inspiration from the above picture, or the one below. So either get a blue sweatsuit and add an American flag and medals, or go for the red unitard look. But no matter what you decide to do, you have to get a Rubik’s cube and glasses.
