5th Annual Cooter's Costume Contest Is Coming Up Fast!


 October is almost here as so is the Hazzard Run in Luray! That means the Halloween in Hazzard Costume Contest! The Run is earlier in the month, but it's still in October so the contest will take place at the Hazzard Run on October 3rd! 



I don't know if I can ever top my Waylon costume, but I'm going to try! Bring you best Hazzard themed costume to Cooter's in Luray on October 3rd to compete with the finest cosplayers in Hazzard Costume. The rules haven't changed, but just in case you need a refresher, here they are:



§  The contest will take place during the Hazzard Run , October 3, 2026, at Cooter’s in Luray.

§  One winner, or group of winners, will be chosen from each category. 

§  Winners will be chosen by the panel of judges with consideration taken from audience and social media reactions. * The judges’ decisions are final. *

§  Entry is open to anyone that wears a Dukes of Hazzard themed costume to the Hazzard Run Event.

 

 

The categories are (examples included but not limited to the description):

Best Duo

Bo and Luke, Boss Hogg and Rosco, Daisy and Enos, Rosco and Flash, Bo and the General Lee, Ben and Miss Alma.  Any two Dukes of Hazzard themed costumes.

Best Group

Bring the whole family and dress up like the Duke Family, or the entire Hazzard Police Department, or Cooter’s Garage Band. Any crew larger than two individuals dressed in Dukes costumes. 

Best Under 18

One or more young Dukes fans in costume.  Persons under 18 can enter the other categories if they are with one or more costumed people over 18, but every person who enters this category must be under 18.

Best Individual

Calling all Daisys! You don’t have to come with others to win an award.  If your Bo, Cletus, or Sherriff Big Ed Little has what it takes to go at it alone, this is the category for you!

Most Unique

Get creative! What would the Dukes of Hazzard look like in the Star Wars Universe? How would the Dukes survive on The Walking Dead?  Can someone dress up like the General Lee? This is your chance to take your cosplay skills to the next level and dream up anything as long as it’s Dukes of Hazzard related. 

 

 

§  Winners of each category will receive a prize and be featured on all of Cooter’s Place social media outlets.  

§  One individual may only enter one category.  “Best Individual” is not permitted to be a part of “Best Group” or “Best Duo.”

§  No offensive costumes please! And remember, Cooter’s is a family establishment.  If Uncle Jesse wouldn’t approve, neither would we. 

§  Photos will be taken during the contest and will be posted online. By entering the costume contest, you are agreeing to allow your image to be used on Cooter’s Place online presence and in future advertising efforts.

§  While no changes to these rules are foreseen, certain circumstances may require that the rules be changed. A complete set of current rules will be posted at the costume contest check-in area.



See you at the Costume Contest!
