Word! My wife and I took our son to the local zoo for their Zoo Boo event last night. I was barefoot the entire time and nobody seemed to give it a second look. Even though the temperature was dropping, my feet stayed warm since we were standing up and walking the whole time. I was wearing a sweatshirt of my alma mater, and a hat of the same, plus my jeans rolled up. I claimed my costume was a sort of hippy frat guy or something I said next year if I can find a straw hat and suspenders I could be Tom Sawyer haha
My friend used Halloween dress day as an excuse to go barefoot all day at school, the one day we don't have to wear uniforms. He came as a member of a South American ethnic group of some sort. How did I not think of doing that? I quite envied his lack of shoes. I'm going to do it next year for sure! PatrickGSR- I like your Tom Sawyer idea. Haha
I was barefoot all night too. My costume didn't require shoes. Everyone asked how was my costume differnt than my normal atire? I was a hillbilly.

I was at a friends quiet family/friends party. The old people kept asking about my shoes, and how cold it was. One man mentioned to me that his partner in conversation had thought I was just too poor for pants and shoes, and he'd had to set him strait on it being my costume :leaving: (I was wearing my favorate pants, with many patches (both sewed and JB welded on) and new holes covering more area than the old patches)
