It always depends where I am living. Some places have been great. Others not. The greater the amount of sport dumpster diving and local consumption of quinoa by the elites, the greater the stranglehold over anything traditional and fun. But at least for once I guessed right and didn't buy any candy this year.

I had a roll of quarters in my pocket just in case.

I plan to be somewhere more breathing-friendly and less irritating by next Hallows Eve. Fingers crossed.
