An online Halloween store decided to capitalize on the buzz surrounding the fly mishap at the vice presidential debate by selling a wig.
What’s going on?
The Halloween store 3Wishes is selling a “Debate Fly Wig” — inspired by the moment from the recent vice presidential debate when a fly literally landed on Vice President Mike Pence’s head.
- The wig — currently in stock — costs $49.95.
- The white hairpiece has a fake fly on top of it.
The description reads:
“Look fly and steal the spotlight at your next party with this Debate Fly Wig, perfect for when being a fly on the wall just won’t do! You’ll want to get caught in the crossfire with this special item featuring a deluxe, high-quality silver white wig with an attached, oversized black fly and Flag lapel pin included! Suit and plexiglass partition not included.”
The fly ignited a social media buzz as people across the country — including Utah Jazz star Donovan Mitchell — reacted to the moment.
“Is that a fly???” Mitchell tweeted.
