So, What Do You Call the Night Before Halloween?
 

Exactly as the title says. We always called it Cabbage Night up here in my part of the North, but howboutchu?

1. Cabbage Night
2. Mischief Night
3. Devil Night
4. Goosey Night
5. Something else??

2. Mischief night.

cabbage night?? like ... the vegetable???

Yep! Don't ask me, I didn't think it up. ;)

I never heard about it until I moved to NJ, and all the knuckleheads in high skool called it Mischief Night.

Goosey night over here. My mom said they used to call it Gate night when she was growing up in Ramsey.

Never heard it any other way but mischife night

goosey night here as well. I also have heard gate night used in rockland county NY and that whole area.

revenge night....... i kno who smashed my mail box 2 weeks ago, now im loaded and ready to do some dam..... i mean some neighboorhood clean up

mischief!! goosey sounds like a gay 3 year old made it up, and then giggled about it

Mischief night.

I just ran to the supermarket (James just had oral surgery, wanted ice cream and mashed potatoes), and some kids were trying to buy eggs. They won't sell eggs to minors on the night before Halloween. Never heard of anyone denying kids eggs, but makes perfect sense.

Mischief night but I've heard it called the Devil's night which is retarded considering Halloween has nothing to do with the Devil or Satanism.

Goosey night? Where so you live, fire island? :supergay:

How about "Holy f*** I got lazy and still don't have a costume for the contest at work tomorrow and my SG-1 costume is still missing several important peices"?

Kinda catchy
:D

goosey round these here parts

Mischief night here.

Mischief night here too!

My convo with JM earlier went something like this:

- Justin

i have a feeling she asked a lot of people that question haha

When I lived in north jersey it was called goosey night and around here it's called mischief night.

goosey.

mischief night.... any other one just makes no sense lol.

We called it Cabbage Night back in my bergenfield days. Dunno what they're calling it here in Ramsey these days.

Are us up in northeast bergen county the only ones who call it cabbage night? Till I was in college i had never heard anything else

Devil's night, here. This is definitely regional.
