How many trick or treaters did you get ?

We had about 75 or so - lot more teenagers than normal. About a dozen of them didn't even bother dressing up, which pisses me off to no end. At least make an effort - wear a mask or something. And of course, if you refuse them, the little fuckers would trash your yard - and yet, if I catch them doing that, and beat the shit out of them, *I'd* be the one going to jail. The justice system works... 
I had roughly 90. My area is in love with Halloween and even the parents dress up while they take their kids around.
I always dress up, but, didn't carve a pumpkin, just lit candle lanterns.
I had fewer of the really older teens, for whom I make a lovely little baggy of raisins!
My street has really cool set ups like haunted houses etc...
When I was a kid and people left their lights off, they would wake up to find their front lawn flooded 'cause the garden hose was somehow left on....and other devious acts of depravity depending on the nature of the kids involved.
I make sure I stay at home...this is the third year I have picked up a firecracker off my lawn, This year a kid thought he dropped a candy, and it was a firecracker one of the teens dropped as they jostled around the door...
Lots of exploding pumpkins...the street was a mess the next morning!

i had about 40...then chased and scared the shit out of a couple of kids that thought it would be funny to light up fire crackers on my garage door..

The H1N1, news of crazy people handing out poisonous stuff/razorblades to kids, and paranoid parents deciding to bring their kids to the malls instead..... those are probably the major reasons why there aren't that many trick-and/or-treaters on the streets anymore.
It's really a shame... I think the last few Halloweens hasn't been raining at all, it would be perfect for kids to venture the outdoors themselves.
