How many Jokers came trick-or-treating at your house?

[bgates87]

Just getting this thread up in preparation for the trick-or-treating to take place tomorrow night.

I thought it would be interesting to hear from those of you who will be staying home handing out candy as opposed to going out and taking it from others, how many people showed up at your house dressed as the Joker?

Feel free to mention any other popular Batman characters, for that matter. I'm sure there'll be quite a few people dressed as Batman and Two-Face.

This is depressing.

"The deviously simple inspiration from "The Dark Knight," however, persists in its popularity from last month: All it takes is spackling on white foundation, smearing lipstick, and wearing a crooked grin."

Unfortunately that's all the more effort we'll see from a lot of people.

We had about 150 trick or treaters tonight and there were NO Jokers. There was only 1 Batman. We live in a pretty populated area, I guess Jokers not as popular as the media and fan boards made him out to be.

ZERO. And for the Fall festival, all I noticed was one kid in a rubies suit, and one adult in a rubies suit with his family. Under 10 Batman (batmen?) and two Batgirls. Oddly enough, I noticed proboly 10 Clone Troopers, and about 5 Jedi. (I costume as SW characters otherwise, and this is the first Halloween in a while I didn't do a SW costume. Doh!)

i went to school last week decked-out and everyone reacted like they know not one person doing the joker. the night after i went to a party and there was an ANIMATED SERIES joker!
that's all i've seen. we'll have to see tomorrow...

What country are you living in right now?

What country are you living in right now?

right here in the US. Why? Judging from the last 2 posters Im not alone in my reporting of a lack of Jokers.

We also had our Trick-or-Treat this evening. Hate to say it, but there were also no Jokers. There were about 3 Batman costumes, but that was it. We had about 300 kids at our door this year.

Whats with the pre-halloween trick or treaters? Is this a town by town thing or a whole America deal? What do kids do on the actual day?

 

[SHADOWBAT69]

Well, in my case, its because Halloween is on a Friday. They never have trick or treat on Friday nights because it interferes with high school football. So whenever this occurs, they have it the day before. Most of the surrounding communities had theirs tonight.

Ya, Trick-or-Treat and the Fall festival is always the week before the 31st for us. There isn't any local events for the 31st, which is why I'm going out of town today for an event today. The 31st just passes here in town like nothing...In fact I bet they take the decorations down today.

 

[bgates87]

Wow, I was just trying to get this thread up in advance, who actually trick or treats the night before Halloween? I was expecting to have to bump this later today. Weird. Tonight should be a lot better, hopefully.

Anyways I just moved to a small town here in the middle of nowhere (Kansas) and they actually had NO SCHOOL today because of Halloween. Ive never heard of that before. I don't really know anybody here in this town and I'm starting to get kind of worried that I accidentally moved into some weird town where everyone's in a brainwashed cult or something. I bet a mob of people surround my house tonight holding torches and pitchforks. I won't go down without a fight!

Edit: I'd also be interested to hear if anyone sees someone dressed up as Two Face!

None in my area either at festivals, etc, and Im sure none today either, AGAIN to all the coolsters who thought this joker was going to be the overrated and popular/lamest costume, you were wrong naturally, no real surprise though, as out of all the cities each SHHyper lives in we are all reporting the same thing, that there are no other jokers well besides ourselves

OOh! Get pics!

We also have a "No School" day here because it's Nevada Day. It's almost weird hearing that other states GO to school today. I'll have my report up later.

 

[Kelikala]

No Jokers on my end either here in NW Ohio. I've run into a few adults dressed as batman and plenty of kids dressed up at both Batman and Robin, but sadly no Jokers. I'll be going to trick or treat in another town tonight since my hometown had their trick or treat last night, so I'll see if I run into any over there.

This was the first time I've ever heard of no school because of Halloween. I figured it was probably a in-service day or parent teacher conferences, but when I checked my little brother's schedule it just said: "No School- Halloween."

And ShadowBat, I will do my best to get pictures, but you'll probably never get to see them... should the worst happen. *dun dun dun*

 

[sandmjuggalos]

That's why I love living in Vegas. Since Nevada became a state on Halloween, I never had to go to school. All day to prepare.

I just found it weird that people went trick or treating a day before halloween

 

[neomage2021]

we just had a costume contest at my college. Hundreds of entrants and the only other batman character besides my batman group was a catwoman. Not a single other joker

 

[Yurka]

I was at a big frat party last night and saw 2 Jokers.

You will be remembered for the cause.:bat:

 

[Morg]
