Oktoberfest or Halloween?

Both fests take place at the beggining of the fall in the Northen Hemisphere, both started as regional parties and spread to all over the world. Which one do you prefer?

Oktoberfest.

Halloween isn't much fun when not a kid or with kids.

[Rand]

Nothing beats scaring the living hell out of other people's kids.

I love Halloween. This is the best time of year. If you decorate your house for Halloween, I love you.

Since I'm not a drinker, the choice is obviously Halloween.

A friend of mine, by the name of Dr. Haller, was born on 10/31/1954. Every year he hosts a "Hallerween" party on the last Saturday of October.

What I associate with Oktoberfest is that it is an event where you're drinking to excess until people start vomiting all over each other and can't control their bladders any longer.

I heard many Germans outside Bavaria are not very big fans of the Oktoberfest

Bavaria is more like Austria than the rest of Germany.
