Gugny Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 We used to call this Cabbage Night. Was a big thing when I was a kid (80s). Eggs, toilet paper and watermelons. Local markets wouldn't sell those things to kids without a note from parents (or not at all) on that night. It's no longer a thing, thank God.

It is, after all, fair to persecute someone for something they did that was, at that time, expected. If you have a shred of dignity you will turn yourself in to the authorities and profess your guilt. 1

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted October 31, 2019 Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) Late 60s in northeast Buffalo had Beggars’ Night the big event, only a few ‘double dippers’ showed up on the 31st. Unheard of here in greater Fort Erie, strictly Oct. 31 for fun, frivolity, and hooligans. Edited October 31, 2019 by Ridgewaycynic2013
