Famous actor Macaulay Culkin dressed up as Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow for Halloween, paying tribute to the star quarterback.
Culkin, most famous for his roles as a child actor, including in the ‘Home Alone’ series, does not appear to have any ties to the Cincinnati area and has not expressed his NFL fandom.
Yet, the resemblance was uncanny from the 44-year-old to someone 17 years his junior, with Burrow replying to Culkin’s Instagram post of his costume.
‘Touche alleged doppelganger,’ Burrow posted with the photo of Culkin in his Bengals jersey.
Burrow gave his thoughts on Halloween later Thursday.

As part of the Halloween celebrations in sports on Thursday, LaMelo Ball was scared by a clown
‘I’m not into celebrating something just to celebrate it. What exactly are we celebrating? Just to dress up to dress up? I’m not a big dress-up guy.’
Burrow is clearly focused on keeping the Bengals’ playoff hopes intact at 3-5. Cincinnati plays the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday in a promising opportunity to get back into the win column.
The sports world showed up in a big way to celebrate Halloween, including the Charlotte Hornets posting a video to their social media accounts of a clown trying to scare their players and coaches.
By far the most successful scare happened to LaMelo Ball, who entered the video singing down the hallway and did not see the clown, who was positioned out of sight behind a door.
As soon as Ball entered the room where the clown was located near a staircase, he let out a loud, high-pitched yell and jumped back.
Ball composed himself and delivered a strong open-hand strike to the clown’s head. There was not anyone in the costume, evidenced by when the clown’s head smacked against a nearby wall from the strike and ricocheted back.
Ball took two steps before smacking the back of the clown’s head, decapitating the robot and sending its headless copy to the ground to the laughs of several around him.
