Halloween is dying

Less and less kids going trick or treating.

You're dressed up as the highest posting sock of all time.  That's pretty cool.

We had plenty of kids stop by tonite. Had four bags of candy and ran out while kids were still in the neighborhood.

[RonLongshaft]

had no more than 6-8 kids here and thats a stretch... oh well more candy for my lard a$$ 

[KSUTOMMY]

I recall going trick or treating, coming home, GORGING myself on candy and not worrying about it. What do I have to show for it? I just got a root canal two days ago, YEAH!

I took my girls out (4 and 20 mo.), they got a bunch of candy - I promptly took 90% of it (see above) and it was gone by yesterday at 10 am from the security guards desk. We had a bunch of kids come by. But it isn't what it used to be.

Our problem is that it's turning into a UN food drive in our neighborhood.  We get a steady stream of vehicles dropping off kids from who knows where.  A lot of my neighbors opted out last night.

We had ZERO kids show up.  So I laid out on the couch eating all the candy while I watched Halloween H20.  BTW peanut butter cups go great with beer!

Also, why is this thread on the football board?  Someone want to throw in a six degrees of separation connecting trick or treating and the 2007 KSU football season?  Don't forget to put in Kevin Bacon.

My parents have had a ton of less than stellar trick or treaters stopping by hoping for an apple or an orange so they can have a decent meal that week.  It truly is sad, these kids' parents can afford smokes and Old Milwaukee, but can't find the cash to buy some hamburger helper for the kids.

Many, us included, take kids to a location (e.g., Westloop) vs neighboorhoods.  We still go to those within a few blox, but not like I did when I was ToTing.

Halloween 1997, drunk at a party in Manhattan, KS tried to break up a fight between my room mate and all the guys at the party and simultaneously got punched in the lip, nose and ear. I still had a fat lip when I was getting loaded while watching the Tech game on Nov 1st.

2 degrees of separation (pretty weak)

That's a good start, but is there anyone in the current program that was also associated with said program in 1997?  Mo maybe?  And you forgot Kevin Bacon.
