Well he is of normal size, but no I don't think they make the costumes new every single year. They have been doing that parade for a very, very long time (I think since the 60's or so), and it already costs a lot of money to run, and I think that most of the time the celebrity guest (because they have one every year) doesn't even don the costume, and usually dons a suit instead. So Elijah being the kind of person who just jumps into things. Most likely they weren't prepared for him to want to wear a cosutme, so they just got him one that everyone wears (because there are a lot of people on those floats).

I do like the pictures though, it is just that I wish I would have been able to get down to New Orleans at that time, because it would have been awfully exciting
