Does this shit happen in other states? It's just as bad as when the Morons hold halloween a day early when it falls on a Sunday.

Hell no...we have the Fourth of July on the Fourth of July. Although if it is on the weekend, you get an extra day off from the week so you're not gypped of your federal holiday bliss. NJ does have trick or treating the night before Halloween, which confused the heck out of us when we moved here...we had to run out and find candy fast. I think it is called "mischief night"...very odd.
