Not just football fans. it’s Sunday (and while I know others do Friday or Saturday worship), in the past there was a great deal of pushback from religious groups who feel this is “Satan’s work” or that “masks are a tool of the devil”.

Seriously. Whole campaigns sprang up to end Sunday Halloween parties and celebrations of Hallowern events.

Then you have families whose kids are in clubs, travel sports. dance, voice and theater groups who miss out b/c rehearsals or meets are on whatever weekend day ends up being chosen.

We’re in the burbs and it’s always 6-8 pm on whatever day the 31st falls. No exceptions. But not everybody does it that way
