Last night the city of Gainesville was filled with ghouls, goblins and skanky girls, but no sign of anyone dressed as a gay Dumbledore.

UF guys really stepped up to the plate this year and took advantage of the holiday by out-slutting the girls; Tarzans in loin cloths, male strippers in just about nothing, and, of course, cross-dressers wearing inappropriately short skirts littered the streets downtown.

But where was Dumbledore, Harry Potter readers'  favorite sexy, white bearded, pink short-shorted wizard who was just outed by J.K. Rowling?

Not to say there was a lack of creative costumes--there were plenty of outrageous ones. Especially commendable are those students brave enough to wear their costumes to class-- yesterday a cybernetically enhanced gunner from the video game Halo sat next to students in a television and society class, taking notes and kicking ass. Now this is the Halloween spirit.

And of course excessive drinking. Like any college holiday.
