2025 Costume Contest

Christopher Deal & Brandon Pratt

Christopher & Brandon

as Bee and Beekeeper

Hello! We are participating in this Costume Contest to bring our community together for a fun night to support an important cause. All of your votes to us will go to the Community Coalition Against Human Trafficking, a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing services for survivors and raising awareness to prevent human trafficking. We believe Halloween is the perfect time to channel creativity and community spirit into something meaningful: helping protect the vulnerable and supporting those rebuilding their lives. Thank you for helping us raise a ton of money for CCAHT!

About us:

Christopher: Florida Native but calls Knoxville, TN home for the past 15 years.  He has worked in education in a variety of capacities over 25 years.  He is a professional socialite ,and if he could figure out how to do social media properly, he would be what the people called an 'influencer.'  But, since that is not likely to happen, he loves to brighten the world up with cheesy posts and bounce around downtown on any given weekend to all of the hotspots.  Five years ago, he and Brandon were married by Billy Idol during Covid through a contest Christopher entered on SiriusXM with Alan Hunter (who opened MTV on August 1, 1981) as the MC.  Last May, he and Brandon were asked by Billy Idol and SiriusXM to go to NYC to see Billy Idol at the top of the Empire State Building perform for the Rebel Yell 40th Anniversary.  Definitely, the highlight of their relationship thus far.

Brandon: Mississippi Native but calls Knoxville, TN home for the past 20+ years.  Brandon is 1.5 years away from retirement.  But, who is counting?  Brandon is.  On any given day, you can ask him how many days he has until retirement, and he can tell you (even if you woke him up in the middle of the night from a deep sleep).  Literally, that fast.  In addition to being pulled to all of Christopher's social events, Brandon can be seen at any RuPaul's Drag Race performer in Nashville or nearby states.  Like a proud parent of a child or pet, ask Brandon about a drag queen, and he will pull out his phone filled with pictures.
