Halloween vs. Jazz game

Stifle Tower

Punch Bowl Re-Filler
So I'm thinking of skipping trick-or-treating with the daughter to watch the Jazz game. Wife will have to do it all and I'll just put some candy out on the porch instead of opening the door for those pesky, snot-nosed little kids.

Thoughts?




sirkicky, do you know any good divorce attorneys?

Three letters my friend. D-V-R.
 
I gave Honz my tickets tonight. This is only the third home opener I will miss in the past 30 years. Two of them are because of trick-or-treating with the kids. DVR for the win.
 
PK put it well on the radio this morning, "Later in life you're not going to remember what happened during the game tonight, but you will remember going Trick-or-Treating with your kids". If Delonte were still on Dallas I would argue this point, but since he's gone, I think he has a point.
 
I hate halloween. I love the Jazz. I like being married. I love my kids. I really hate halloween.

I voluntered to take the youngest, then pass out treats after the sun goes down. If the bowl is empty by 7:00 I'll just have to turn off the lights, I'm sure we can find something else to do.

What does he know? I won't remember what happens tonight by tomorrow morning.
 
I think I will answer the door for about 2 hours then put the candy outside. DVR what I have to.
 
Isn't the Utah way just to whip your kids around a church parking lot, the so called "trunk or treat" method of trick or treating, and be home 15 minutes later? I usually hate the idea of trunk or treats on the basis of ruining the beautiful tradition of trick of treating, but with a Jazz game on, you hit that baby at about 6:30 with your kids, a couple houses on the way home and there, and you're back on your sofa with plenty of time to spare. Super dad.
 
Take the kid trick or treating. Just tell her you have to run as fast as you can to each door. She'll be so tired after about 5 doors that she will want to go home. That when you say "Hey I have candy at home, why do we just go home and enjoy that?"

Problem solved.
 
Not an issue for me. Halloween was cancelled in NJ today.

State agents will come by each house and confiscate all candy which is to be turned over to Gov. Christie as tribute.

Trunk or treating, to the exclusion of walking around your own neighborhood, is absolutely terrible in my opinion. Halloween is the most community centered holiday and trunk or treating is ruining it.

They'll certainly be by your place to pick up the emergency stash of candy Christie hid under the floorboards.
