Woo! Ric Flair Halloween impersonator features during Coastal Carolina homecoming game

As Coastal Carolina faced the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, the day marked a convergence of events.

It was CCU’s homecoming game with the second-highest attendance for the event in school history, with 17,812 packing into Brooks Stadium in Conway, S.C. The game also comes two weeks before Halloween. Given the City of Conway’s affinity for the holiday, one fan took the opportunity to adorn similar attire to a limousine-riding and jet-flying individual.

With less than four minutes left in the game, the Brooks Stadium jumbotron turned its attention to one spectator who resembled famed professional wrestler Ric Flair. The fan appeared to have long bleach-blonde hair and wore sunglasses and a black robe with white feathering similar to the Nature Boy’s attire.

The impersonator strutted and “Woo’d” to the delight of the crowd, resembling the mannerisms Flair used during his professional wrestling career.

The Chants lost to the Ragin’ Cajuns 34-24.
