After wearing two different Bat suits on Friday afternoon and evening, I decided to go with the TK on Saturday for Halloween. We walked the neighborhood and everyone was coming out of their houses to get a look and take pics. I didn't go up to any doors, but even parents inside handing out candy would see me and come out to the street or call me up to the house.
One situation was pretty great -- A lady saw me and said her husband is a huge Star Wars fan but just had surgery and can't leave his chair, so she asked if I would come in and talk to him and take some pics. He was so amazed and said I made his day. That was awesome. I told them about the Legion and our charity work, and passed along the Garrison web address.
There was a kid dressed as Michael Jackson following us around all night and he kept saying I wasn't a real Stormtrooper. No matter what I said, he wasnt buying it. But after he saw all the reactions from adults and hearing me talk to them about our charity work, he finally looked at me and finally realized I was a real Stormtrooper. He got so excited, he ran home and got a camera to take pics.
What a great weekend. I love Halloween.
