Freakscene for myself as well I'd say, or else maybe some sort of party if one pops up?

Oh I don't frequent the place by any means, but there's no doubting it's a mad laugh on halloween.

itd be normal "dress like an emo" freakscene on the wednesday or interesting "dress as something weird" on friday.

there is a second freakscene every year on halloween even if it isnt a wednesday.

and I swear to god if I dont get a prize or at least a nomination this year Im punching faces.

We're actually gonna do pools on how many Jokers there'll be. I'd say at least 7. Possibly one dressed as a nurse.

Kold

Haha well I'm always up for sharing a cab to Bishopstown if anyone else is coming this way after.

I would think 13 with
4 as the nurse.
1 in the old joker style
the rest as Heath Joker.



I might get a wig and go as Heath Ledger just to piss people off!!!

YOURE NOT?!?

im not sure I can face trashing my costume at the end of the night again, not sure what id do with it though, maybe put it on ebay...

im going to lowball the joker bet and say 5 jokers, between types. probably one nurse and one old school. oh and one so bad it only even kinda looks like joker. and he will be proud that he made his costume in 20 minutes before leaving the house. cock.

minidazzler

I am gonna bring my camera nad take candid photo's of all the jokers I see.

Hopefully I will be drunk enough to think there are 13 cos then I win!!!

Balls, I'll have to make a trip to town. I didn't get one last year, the bouncer let me in because he liked my costume

Thanks for the heads up.
