I am an absolute sucker for Halloween

As a kid, I remember my grandmother would go all out on Halloween decorations.  She hand made dummies and dressed them as witches and ghouls. My parents would do haunted houses for trick or treaters.  I love scary movies and think I have seen all of the classics.

 

Now as an adult and a father, I go all out on Halloween.  We do a huge adults only Halloween Party every year.  I spend stupid money and a lot of time decorating my house for the party.  I also like to make up my costume, in other words I don’t like to buy a costume out of a box.  

Anyway, maybe this is a pointless thread,, or maybe some of you enjoy this holiday as much as me...

My second favorite holiday next to Thanksgiving. 

The whole month of October is magical and lifts my spirits every year.

Same.  Although as I've gotten older and have less time it's harder to celebrate.  Trying to convince my wife of doing a scary Christmas themed Halloween. Decorate house like Christmas and dress up like dead  santa.  Leave the decorations up.  Good til the rose bowl.

Fourth of July & Thanksgiving are my favorites

But I enjoy Halloween more now with kids then I did with no kids going to sh*tty Halloween partys. My wife and I grab a beer or glass of wine and walk the kids around the neighborhood checking out all the costumes and house decorations, some neighbors throw up speakers and blast Halloween music for the block, it’s pretty cool, except we got rained out last few years.

It's my favorite holiday. No cooking and no big expectations with family. You simply dress up, eat candy and do what you want. It's fuging great however I'm out of town this Halloween. We are going to celebrate before I leave. Decor is already out.

      Especially with no other major sports in the area other than UNCW basketball and soccer. It's a good 2 1/2 hour drive just to catch a collegiate football game. If this new arena were built I would hope it also includes an Adult League - I would join up and time allowing would be more than happy to help coach some youth teams. 😄

      That was real fear in his eyes when the rope was being taken. My younger days, I had my best friend that happened to be black come over all the time. I had the nicest bulldog on the planet, my friend Damon was scared to death of him. His grandmother and daddy taught him to fear all dawgs and seen the same fear in his face and voice.    I think alllll young kids should take swimming lessons and not fear the water. Very thankful my parents did this, I no longer get in the ocean since its 50% sewage. But I enjoyed all the lakes, pools, and oceans I swam in.

      My personal opinion is the non-guaranteed contract is the main reason for NFL success. MLB and NBA players are on cruise control after their big contracts and it shows in the product.  NFL is each year you are fighting for your job. Same for the majority of the public.... You get lazy or try to coast after the 100+ million contract, your ass will be cut within 1-2 years. Then the next one will not even touch 100 million+. Besides a few NBA players like Kobe was coming for blood with a 300 million contract or 1 doll hair deal. Brandy Beal just reached a buyout where he was getting 110 million, many other cases..... I dare say his name for the hornets guy..... MLB sooo many times as well.    If the NFL starts fully guaranteeing all contracts, Id have a new hobby to fill the hours of entertainment NFL gave me.
