Out of 30 trick or treaters... only the 10 I had under the age of 10 were in costumes...

I had 20 over the age of 15 and maybe 3-4 were in some sort of costume....

That was always the fun of it when I was young... getting as gored out as I could, or a really sweet costume. :stan3: :stan3:

If you are old enough to drive yourself somewhere to trick or treat.....you shouldn't be trick or treating anymore.

Just had two teenage girls drive up in a mini van get out and walk our court for candy........................................and no I didn't take pics.

we had a bunch of older kids but everyone had costumes on. I was pretty pleased at the crowd this year. we hand out twinkies and we went through 120 pretty fast.

we had a few not dressed up. one girl came to the door and my wife asked where her costume was, this was her answer " I am a college student, I don't need a costume. If your in college you don't need to be trick or treating.

The kids being brought in from outside the neighbor hood didnt bother us, the older kids didnt bother us, the people trick or treating for babies who arent old enough to eat candy didnt bother us... the two boys walking down the road not trick or treating but swinging a bat around was kind of disturbing.

Well.. at least you guys had kids/teenagers -plural- for trick or treating. Only two kids came to our house. One was a ninja and the other a sort of space boy. That was it. I was like... wtf? :confused:

had a few teens come into the pizza place not dressed up and they wanted candy. they then proceeded to be as annoying as they could and mess with the door bell, i was pissed.

later 2 teenage girls opened the door and asked "do you guys have candy?"
i thought it was kinda rude, so i told them nope.
but there we're a buncha kids that came in good costumes and i gave them all candy.

many kids majority in costume. We had quite a few out of town guests park at the church and canvas the neighborhood in force. Leave your rotweillers at home on Halloween please. And I doubt that wearing a skirt will put one in a good mood even if she is "the mama".

My wife and in laws next door ran out of candy in about 45min.

Only had to yell at one car driving too fast this year though so not to bad.

I kid you not!
around 9 after we shut the light off some black getto kids wearing gang colors/ basketball jerseys showed up. My dad told them to go away and they started cussing him out. Soon after he went outside. After a few mins I heard some camotion. I went outside to see a ladder leaned up against the roof with the hose going up there. I climbed up to see my dad in his hunting clothes sitting in a chair with the hose. I said, "What the hell are you doing" he said, "Something I haven't done since i was your age, fending off the juvinel deliquents (sp)."

unfortuantly no one came back

I was the only house on our block that was actually passing out candy. Very disappointing. Only went through about 1/2 bowl of candy at that. My GF's kids went out trick or treating and were gone for about 45 minutes then they came back. I was like wtf you where only out 45 minutes. They said they were tired. Things have deffinently changed since I was a kid going out on Halloween

Yeah seriously I noticed that too. When I was a kid and used to go, my buddy and I would race to every single house in a few hours, get done around 9 and have an entire pillowcase full of candy. It probably weighed about 15-20lbs. Good times! :rock:

Now it seems like people stop passing out candy to Trick-OR-Treaters at 7:30.

didn't do anything this year, but it always happens every year. Someone has to mess with my pumpkin. Could watch all night and in the 5 seconds i look away it gets smashed. Well until i sat on the roof waiting, watching to jump the all of 8 feet down and land on whoever it was. But as always as soon as you prepare you have no one who will do anything.

I took my godson trick-or-treating. We had a blast. There were a few people who had pretty cool decorations in their garages and yards. And even more that dressed up to hand out candy.


He got tons of candy and I got a few beers from some creepy old men :woot:

there are a lot of car'd in kids but it's kinda a main street so they are forced to park and walk. I am a stickler for manners. I make sure my daughter says trick or treat, thank you and says happy halloween to you before moving on to the next house. halloween is no excuse for poor manners. I also make sure she doesn't cut across peoples grass disrespecting their lawns.

Oh no...you're one of "those" people. :tonka: I guess I never understood why people have been so anal about grass in general. Unless it happens so much a path is starting to wear I never saw the big deal. I wouldn't freak out if someone walked across my lawn.

It's not that I feel the grass is so important. what I feel is important is having and teaching respect for others property. She can do whatever she wants on our lawn. her right to terrorize lawns ends when it is off our property. it is not necessary for her to be lazy and simply cut across grass to save a few seconds. people spend good money keeping their property and grass looking nice and I respect that.
