Trick or Treaters

The best part for me was seeing how many smokin hot moms that live in my neighborhood!! Next year, I'm parking my **** in a lawn chair with a cooler of beer in the driveway and hand out candy there.

I have a neighbor who does just that. Here's a tip. Put a couple of extra lawn chairs out there and a little table!

We always do a kids halloween party with a bunch of friends so we are never here to give out candy.

Other than trucks pullling trailers full of kids, there aren't many T&T's here(big lots, lot's of walking.)

I guess I should have left a bowl of candy on the porch, because someone tried to TP our house, it looks like they used 1/4 of a roll of tp, then threw the rest in the bushes...

I remember tp'ing someones house and using 100+ rolls, lazy **** tp'rs...

Manners were alive well in my neck of the woods. All said "thank you" including parents shouting from the driveway. We noticed the older kids actually took fewer pieces of candy than the little ones. Seems like as they're growing up the manners get better....that was nice to see.

Thats what I did last night with a buddy while the wives took the kids around. I think my friend was having a little too much fun because he asked one of the Mom's if she was a **** for Halloween. I swear on my life though, I think she took it as a compliment.

I had people come by twice. Some I recognized and called them on it. I don't think they were from the neighborhood but I gave them candy anyhow.

One couple I watched drive up and park their car. They get out and hit my neighbor's house first and then mine. The guy looked about 30 and she looked in her mid-20's. Hard to tell for sure but they were WAY too old an didn't even have a costume. Between the two of them it appeared they had over 20 pounds of candy. I was going to say something but I didn't want any issues later.

I'd say about 300 or so kids came by. I ran out of candy at 8:15.

We never get kids in our neck of the neighborhood.

I'll bet not a lot of folks hand out candy over there. Lots of seasonal people I think.

My neighborhood gets over loaded with kids from different neighborhoods. I had over 600 kids and I did not get home from work until 7:15 and stopped at 8:30. Cars are parked everywhere and you see trucks loaded with 15 kids in the back. They stop and go to a few houses and get back in. I had to load up on candy and none of my kids were even home. If my wife and kids are home or it is on a weekend, I need over $200.00 worth of candy to make it to 8:30.

My house didn't get egged last night and my kid came home with more candy than I gave out.

I would say it was a success.

When did kids start using pillow cases as bags anyway!

Pumpkins - too small, garbage bags rip. Years ago mine switched.

I did that when I was young so to answer your question about 40 years ago

We had quite a few this year and most were pretty good. One boy about 8 years old gave my 18 month old daughter some of his candy because he thought she was so cute. That was very sweet.

Last year my wife gave out bags of Doritos and other chips. My 12 year old son was so horrified at the thought of not giving "real candy" that he trick or treated round the block to get enough ""real candy" to give out to anyone he recognized.

...one other not so nice trend I've noticed over the years that I put on my "Really? Do you need candy that badly?" list...is adult chaperones who also carry a bag "for my baby back home"

I feel like saying, I tell you what...when your baby is old enough to Trick or Treat...have them come here and I'll give them some candy. ...but like Pup, I just cave in, and give them a piece. I figure any adult crazy enough to beg for candy would have no issues with TPing my yard.

Not one child here, been that way for years. What few children that live here are taken across the bridge to more "fertile grounds". I really miss leaping out of the bushes and scaring the bajeesus out of 'em. :grin

They bus them in to our neighborhood too. literally thousands within a few blocks. Crazy. Something to do with the fact that there are lots of sidewalks. Most were polite. I never know what to make of those trick-or-treaters between the ages of 18 and 40. I just roll with it, as weird as it is.

The night started out great with the first knock on the door being a real young kid and his mother. She was mid-twenties dressed in a black skin tight leather or latex body suit, high heels, and cat ears. A couple painted on cat whiskers across her face completed the outfit which, needless to say, left nothing to the imagination! I was pretty stoked to see what the rest of the night would hold.

Later though, after being asked for "seckints" by every kids without a costume and a plastis grocery bag for candy and the 3rd "bussed in" heathen announcing he'd take my Wii, the lights went out and the doors got locked. Lot's of gang bangers around, too. Before the charity event most of us just call Halloween, I had never carried on this holiday or felt the need to scan the crowds at my door before opening it. A **** shame what's happening to the neighborhood I grew up in.

I'm moving.

got ants?

We got mobbed, like we do every year. I sat out back with the pooches drankin' bourbon, while the wife stayed at the door. It was non-stop from 5-after 9. Of course, living a half block behind the YMCA doesn't help. I came in to fix another one (Woodford Reserve with a branch) and the lil misses had about 20 kids inside while refilling the candy bowl. I made some scoff and shoo'ed them out, then later gave her a rash about lettin' the little devils inside. One was even fiddling with my receiver knobs. I gots out the Purel and wiped the foyer down. But whilst I sat out back, the pugs were yapping away constantly. I about turned on the sprinklers, but the misses wouldn't have none of it...
