TOO OLD FOR TRICK-OR-TREATING?

How old is to old to go trick-or-treating? It's been all over the news, it was a article in my school newspaper and it pondered in my mind as I thought about Halloween this year. I am 16 years old and I still love candy. It's not fair to put a cap on the age on which your allowed to walk around and get free candy. I get a thrill off of dressing up and being silly. I still am a kid, well kind of. I was surprised when I saw in a city in IL set a certain age limit to trick-or-treating. I do understand that you don't want that 40 year old man with the weird hat and awkward posture to snatch up your kids or their bags of candy. So maybe a cap on trick-or-treating should be implemented but maybe like 18. After high school maybe my urge for free candy will lessen? So I am willing to compromise at 18 I will no longer go trick-or-treating.  But that just means I am going to have to fill up six pillows case of candy instead of three between now and when I turn 18. I like challenges! ;-)
