Halloween Summary
Well the night is over and I survived it (barely). Here are some totals:
Number of people who told me I had a nice costume: 15
Number of people who asked if I was a real cop: 4
Number of people in prisoner or police costumes that wanted a picture: 8
Interesting arrests:
White guy dressed as Poncho Villa (We finally caught the bastard!)
Dallas Cowboys cheerleader (professional quality replica!)
Rorschach
2 Clowns (one of which was crying)
Aladdin
A Spartan warrior
Number of arrests made within the 8 block radius of our bar district: 32
Add the fact that daylight savings time caused the night to last an extra hour and you can imagine how exhausted I am.
8 bits of radio chatter:
So glad you got Pancho Villa. That should help the stats for missing persons this year no end.
Best wishes for the rest of the holiday marathon.
Our clocks went back last weekend (sorry, but I enjoyed an extra hour in bed) and now it's dark by 5pm. Miserable.
Still, arresting Pancho Villa must have brightened up the night considerably. A lad in our street got arrested a while back on his way home from the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Dressed as Frank N Furter. He looked a bit sheepish walking home next morning, to say the very least! In fact, he'll never live it down (his mother will see to that!)
JL:
That Yoda-Pug pic is disturbingly odd for too many reasons...LOL.
Glad you survived the annual "beg-a-thon.
Cowboys cheerleader?
Bet that made the night tolerable
(Nice "bust"...)
Spartan Warrior?
Make a helluva sidekick for the shift, but alas...THIS...IS NOT...SPARTA!
Viva Villa?
(now a guest of the local PD - who knew?)
Stay safe.
You gotta love Halloween!! hehe.
It was quiet on the south side of Chicago Saturday night. People holed up-afraid to get shot. The usually quiet north side was nuts.

Is that your new K9??
I had to smile when I read your last two posts. I'm sure it was an interesting shift for you. Glad you made it through it.
Thanks for putting up with the weirdness.
Be safe.
