So it’s a Seacoast thing, why?

To not compete with the Portsmouth parade.

Can you explain that more? When you say "compete with the parade", are they worried that people wouldn't show to the parade because they're trick or treating, so they move trick or treating so that more people go to the parade? Or do you mean so that they have more police coverage available for both? I'm just confused.

The former. People can only be in one place at one time.

I thought this but that’s only been a thing since 95’
