    Hey everyone! So I don't know if a lot of people do this or not, but if you don't know what BOOing is, it's basically where someone leaves candy on your doorstep in a bucket or bag and then doorbell ditches. With the candy is a sign that says "You've been BOOed" that you have to stick on your door. Once you get BOOed, you have to do the same thing to two other houses (usually someone you know).
    It's a lot of fun because you get to go into stealth mode and hide in bushes and stuff, it's great!

    I just got BOOed tonight so I thought I'd mention it. I'm also curious if people do this in other places than where I live.

    If anyone's interested in starting this, here's a link where you can print out the "You've been BOOed" signs (with descriptions):

    This made me think of the quote from Sharon needles about boos being applause from ghosts.

    When I saw the name of the thread I thought it'd be about getting booed off stage. I've never heard of someone getting "booed" I didn't even know that was a thing. Huh, I guess you really do learn something new everyday. :slight_smile:

    Don't worry, I'm just as lost, I thought they were talking about getting boo'ed off stage as well :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    That seems like the nicest practical joke I've heard though.
