no, its saying for the hills. hike

even advertises for the costume party and something about a haunted house

10/24/2007 9:17:20 PM

i give it 8 years.

2007: better than last year, but still sort of lame
2008: the word is spreading that it's legitimate, more people show
2009-2011: grows
2012: gets big enough to close streets
2013: grows
2014: Franklin St. calibur

pretty impressive rsvp count on facebook for this year though. let's make it a 5-year plan! ready....GO!

did the design school party get killed for good

10/24/2007 10:41:12 PM

i don't do the whole halloween thing, but i like this idea in principle. primarily due to my disdain for all things carolina.

good ?

So ... has anyone figured out why the signs say 26th yet?

10/25/2007 11:32:20 AM

b/c more people go out on friday then wednesday

[Edited on October 25, 2007 at 12:00 PM. Reason : all the hikes are always on friday]

10/25/2007 12:00:07 PM

But the Facebook group says it's on Halloween night. So I guess I was really asking why/if the group is wrong. I think more people know about the group than have seen the signs.

10/25/2007 2:12:02 PM

i haven't seen any of the signs

10/25/2007 2:14:31 PM

I saw one this morning, but I only paid attention to it because I'd heard them mentioned on here.

10/25/2007 2:16:06 PM

the signs say that the parade is the 26th, the hike is on wed, the 31st

10/25/2007 4:14:57 PM

Oops, my bad. I read it as I was driving by and just saw 26 on the bottom.

10/25/2007 4:32:53 PM

Called East Village to confirm, it is on Halloween.

10/26/2007 1:36:25 PM

damn I thought it was saturday

I'm down

Fuck Franklin St. it really is lame

10/26/2007 2:31:46 PM

at least you can still go to franklin street and not be totally left out if you are 20. You could hike under age and just stand outside, I guess, but whats the fun in that?

10/26/2007 2:58:03 PM

there isn't much.

i did it twice

10/26/2007 3:16:22 PM

But you can watch drunk people. Does it really get any better than that?

10/26/2007 3:31:21 PM

personally, i've never subscribed to the 'watching drunk people is hilarious' mindset.

it's just annoying imo.

10/26/2007 3:32:48 PM

I wish sarcasm wasn't so hard to detect on a message board.

10/26/2007 3:33:35 PM

besides people drinking, what else goes on here? I'm only 20, so what is there for my friends and I to do?

10/26/2007 4:25:54 PM

get drunk before

take a flask

go walk around

it's not a damn carnival, it's another hike night. people go to bars on the hike. so there won't be a moon bounce or anything.

[Edited on October 26, 2007 at 5:27 PM. Reason : .]

10/26/2007 5:26:38 PM

^ oh man... I wish there was a moon bounce!

10/26/2007 8:17:34 PM

i would most certainly go if there was a moon bounce there

So scratch that where I said earlier in the thread I'd be megaman. Instead I'll be Cyclops and going with a girl dressed as Emma Frost. I'll be doing Franklin Street obviously b/c I live in this area now for work, and if anyone else is going there are plenty of cabs & buses running back and forth all night from university mall to franklin street. But I have to say, if this Hillsborough Halloween turns out to be even half as much fun as franklin street, then its definitely something I would have done in undergrad.



For those who haven't been, a sample of what its like. There are countless other videos on youtube if you want to see more.



I'll be taking pics w/ any other comic book chars/super Heros/nbc Heros I see.

10/26/2007 9:10:21 PM

Silent Bob here

10/26/2007 10:49:59 PM

Anyone have pics from the Hillsborough Halloween event last year?

I found the facebook group for it last year that had 408 members, but no one uploaded pics.

10/27/2007 1:26:35 PM

I went last year, there were a good number of people walking around so I assume that this year may be quite large.

Question, where do you start and what bars are doing something?

Never mind, Sadlacks to East Village

and the costume contest is at EV at 1:45 am?? wth

10/28/2007 10:48:41 PM

10/28/2007 10:52:13 PM

2 days away

10/29/2007 3:32:34 PM

Got a flyer in the mail today that said there will be transportation until 2:45 going to University House, University Suites, University Village, and Village Green. It said contact Bobby Mills with questions so I'm assuming it's a NC State thing.

10/29/2007 4:29:44 PM

haha i wanna go, but my first day of work is supposed to be on the 1st... hmmm- maybe if i show up hungover, they will use that expectation setter, so every day after that I will be impressing them

maybe

prolly not

10/29/2007 4:32:04 PM

see the old regime at farmhouse during the hike!!

10/29/2007 4:34:22 PM

I'm thinkin i might just go out to farmhouse or EV and get drunk at one of those two place and watch the tailend of the hike

10/29/2007 4:42:38 PM

i'm gettin one of my white friends IDs so i can say ima white dude that dressed like a smooth black dude dressed in a sensible hoody for the cold night

10/29/2007 10:43:35 PM

Whooo, drinking!

10/30/2007 12:46:04 AM

franklin st has been lame all of the 5 times I went to it. if something of that volume of people was lame what makes you think anything at NCSU will be any better? we should be focusing on making our own event; the hike is a good start

10/30/2007 12:54:27 AM

Whoooo hike!

10/30/2007 12:55:59 AM

whoooo hike indeed.

and whoooo drinking also

i wanted to dress in this priest's outfit that had an inflatable boner, and get my gf to go as a sexy nun. then she couldn't find the nun outfit, and asked me "do you really want to walk around all night with people thinking you've got wood?"

so we're doctor & nurse now.
