I'm going as King Harold Godwinson. Am I a moron? Does ANYONE know who that is?

The last true Anglo-Saxon king, who was famously killed doing battle against William The Conqueror. He's the guy on the Bayeux Tapestry with the arrow in his eye (this is now disputed)... but I feel like people know him as the arrow in the eye guy.

    Any UK/France/Ireland school goers will have had 1066 drilled into their skulls for about a year.
