(AP) -- New Cowboys receiver Roy Williams went back to Detroit on Monday night for the team's annual Halloween party, the same event that Jon Kitna attended last year dressed as a naked man to poke fun at an embarrassing moment for one of the Lions' assistant coaches.
And what did Williams do? He dressed up as former Detroit running back Tatum Bell stealing the luggage of his replacement, Rudi Johnson, poking fun at an embarrassing moment from earlier this year.
"I actually got the approval from (Bell)," Williams said. "If I didn't get the approval from him, I wouldn't have done it. He said it was cool, so I did it."
He did it right, too.
"I dressed up in my bellhop uniform with a `Hello, my name is Tatum Bell' name tag," Williams said. "I had my Louis (Vitton) bag with Rudi Johnson's tag on it and Rudi's underwear outside my pants that said `Johnson' on the butt. It was just all in good fun."
Alas, it wasn't good enough to win.
"I should've won, but I'm not a Detroit Lion so they didn't give it to me," Williams said, laughing.
The prize went to receiver John Standeford, who dressed as Michael Phelps, wearing a skimpy swimsuit, a swim cap, goggles and eight gold medals around his neck.
There was no word on whether Standeford got Phelps' permission.

I suppose it's good to know that somebody playing for the Lions can manage to win something this season.
