i think they should do but 1 halloween show, rather than a run. This will get everyone to the one show and it will be epic. the last 2 years the magic was somewhat lost due to the randomness of the locations of the halloween run.
:that:
this i completely disagree with. if they limited it to 1 show, then it would be a lot harder for people to make it to that show since its halloween and thats one of the few nights a year you have options. having it for a few nights has always been clutch because 1 you can have other halloween plans and still make a portion of the freakout, 2 it gives you the chance to dress up and celebrate halloween for more than just 1 night, and 3 if you want to do the whole breakfast run you have that option as well.
limiting it to 1 show will not give that show a likelihood to be more epic, just lower the amount of people who will be able to see the freakout do to conflicts. in 2002, i was at moe. halloween and was able to go to the freakout the night after in providence. in 2006, i was able to go to the freakout for both nights in new haven and syracuse and still see the biscuits halloween show in boston. why limit it to one night when you can celebrate it as many times as you can?
