Businesses along Main Avenue were handing out candy to hundreds of kids.

There were so many people in the rain; it was hard to get around on the sidewalk.

"It's the grown-ups that have to put up with it. The kids don't mind. If it was snowing, they'd be out there! Guys, would you do this either way? Ava Baines: yes," said John Miklos, Scranton.
