Virginia Cracks Down on Overage Trick-or-Treaters
Virginia ain’t playin’ anymore. If you are over the age of 12, forget about tying to score some free Reese’s Pieces or Twizzlers.
It’s now a misdemeanor for those older than 12 to wear a mask and go trick-or-treating in Virginia.
Fifty-two-year old Olly Nevertoooldforreeses from Hampton Roads, Virginia found out the hard way.
The cops surrounded him outside Mrs. Jones house after he she gave him some chocolate eggs and candy corn after he yelled “trick or treat” in front of her door.
“I didn’t think I was hurting anybody,” said the retired shoe-shine man. “I just love Halloween!” he explained as he adjusted the Spiderman mask that had shifted on his face.
“We’ve been casing Olly for a while,” said Hampton Roads police chief Stan Thegigisup. “He’s part of a cabal of older people who use nefarious means to gain candy intended for children. How would you like it if Mrs. Jones told your kid she doesn’t have anymore mini-Butterfingers bars because she gave them to people like Olly over here?”
Mr. Nevertoooldforreeses sat in the back of a cruiser, complaining that the handcuffs were too tight, and prevented him from opening a pack of flavored Tootsie Rolls.
