Girl in inflatable T-Rex costume logically crowned homecoming queen
Homecoming dresses are out, and inflatable T-Rex costumes are proudly making their way in.
In Colorado Springs, Colorado, Sarah MacDonald, a high school student, recently decided to wear a giant inflatable T-Rex costume to her homecoming. But instead of being shamed, she was applauded and subsequently crowned homecoming queen.
"Still can't believe I won homecoming queen because of a T-Rex costume," MacDonald wrote on Twitter.
