Why? I'm sure it has something to do with America's capitalistic economy and it's penchant for making a mockery of religion, but the U.S.'s pasttime of dressing up as ghouls, skeletons, and Hilary Clinton does not carry over its boarders. For example, and this we learned the hard way, is that Italians don't celebrate Halloween. Not one little bit. So maybe a few cosi Americani made their way to Italian vendors, but no, there's no door to door. No miniature Milky Ways or Granny Candies. Niente.But did that stop a bunch of obnoxious American Theatre students who happened to be studying in Arezzo at the time? Absolutely freaking no way not! We partied hard and we encouraged all the on lookers at the bar that evening that this was how all American's behaved and a few of them even crossed to the dark side and painted mustaches on themselves for a feeble disguise!
In the true American fashion, we completely decked ourselves out. We had Dionysus, a knight, snake lady, date-rape victim, Borat, Captain Morgan, a beautiful masquerading lady, Bride of Frankenstein, and a P I M P!
We were awesome:
