John Candy's costume from The Blues Brothers on display...

I grew up watching and laughing at the antics of John Candy in films like Uncle Buck, Spaceballs and Planes, Trains & Automobiles, so it was cool to see one of the outfits the Canadian comedian wore in The Blues Brothers on display at Universal Studios Hollywood on November 30, 2011.
