SFist Photo: Photos of No Halloween in the Castro
Kenny the Clown does his best to entertain the small crowd at this year's Halloween party in the Castro. The cops shut him down after about five minutes, but he wasn't arrested or anything.

A few people showed up last night, but nothing like the typical turnout in years past. A few photos after the jump.

Ratatouille!





I thought that concept of going topless with a bow tie went out in the 80s, along with the Chippendale dancers.
This is a shame. I've gone to the Castro every Halloween (this is the first year I didn't go since I, you know, kinda live on the other side of the country these days). I say just keep those thugs from the EB out and it'll be a swell time.
Topless hot guy costumes (vampire, angel, devil, smurf, etc.) are simply the gay equivalent of slutty girl costumes (nurse, witch, cat, every Alice in Wonderland character). In other words, their both tired.
Come on people, we all know that Halloween is for the kids. Little kids running around in cute little mouse or ballerina costumes getting candy. It is not a chance for every closeted slut to go in public with her T&A hanging out or every closeted cross dressing boy to wear a skirt in public. Enough already.
Not quite as tired as people who don't know the difference between "their" and "they're", or for that matter people who have nothing better to do than complain about scintillating Halloween costumes. Give it a rest, old (wo)man.
