So, what did everyone with ghosts and goblins to take care of end up doing? I had my kids rig up an IPod with Gil and Geno on it, and I wore my son's Pat's construction helmet (with the old Pat Patriot on it, in keeping with the game) as my costume and walked around listening to the game, yelling out various first downs and TDs.
The only problem was the reception kept going in and out, so my neighbors (who must think I am a little nuts, but all know I am a big Pats fans) saw me holding onto my head and contorting around trying to keep the signal. Also, a lot thought the Trick-or-Treat crowd was light because the game was on.
All in all a great evening!!
