Friday Fun Facts for Halloween - Here are few statistics that we found both interesting and a bit amusing: 1. 50% of kids prefer to receive chocolate candy, compared to 24% who prefer non-chocolate, and 10% who prefer gum. The other 16% must be a halloween mystery. 2. In 2010, the National Retail Federation reported that, of the people surveyed, 40.1% planned to wear a costume, 46.3% would carve a pumpkin, 72.2% would pass out candy, 33% planned to throw a party, 20.8% were going to visit a haunted house, and 11.5% planned to dress up their pets for the holiday. 3. Boston, MA holds the record for the most Jack OLanterns lit at one time (30,128). 4. Finally, Americans purchase over 20 million pounds of Candy Corn each year. However, the #1 candy of choice is Snickers!! Be safe out there tonight and drive cautiously. There will be lots of Princesses, Transformers, Mutant Ninja Turtles, and monsters of all kinds crossing streets and bouncing excitedly through the neighborhoods. Have a great Halloween and a wonderful weekend!
