Barbecue grill cover shaped like a football helmet

Description

FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a barbecue grill cover shaped like a football helmet showing my new design;

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a right side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a left side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a rear elevational view thereof; and,

FIG. 6 is a top plan view thereof.

The broken lines showing the barbecue cart including the console panel, the gas tank and the logos are for illustrative purposes only and form no part of the claimed design. The grill cover has a generally concave configuration that is open at the bottom, which is configured to engage the grill, so there is no need for a bottom view of the invention.
