Every year people from the Georgia Tech community show up in their favorite costume to run and walk the Tyler Brown Pi Mile route. But, you may want to make sure having all this fun is for you. Check out the 6 reasons below and make sure none apply to you before registering (wink wink).\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Col\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EYou hate dressing up and winning cool prizes.\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\tAt registration, all contestants will take a photo and fill out an information card at the costume entry table. The CRC\u0026rsquo;s expert panel of judges will score all the costumes based on creativity and quality. After the top five costumes are selected, these contestants will have their photos posted to Facebook so that members of the Georgia Tech community can decide who has the winning costume. Every like on the photo counts as a vote. Whoever has the most votes takes home a prize. Not interested in costumes or winning? The Halloween Holla may not be for you.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EYou don\u0026rsquo;t want to engage with the wonderful people of the Georgia Tech community.\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\tAll members of the Georgia Tech are welcome, even those without a CRC membership. Students, staff, faculty, and alumni affiliates are all encouraged to come show off their best costumes and run or walk in the race. But, if a great time on a great campus with great people isn\u0026rsquo;t your cup of tea, maybe stay home.\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EYou hate free stuff\u003C\/strong\u003E.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\tThe first 200 students to check in to the race will receive a \u003Cem\u003Efree\u003C\/em\u003E race t-shirt!

Having a great time with your friends and new friendly faces. Costumes, friends, free stuff\u0026mdash;the very spirit of Halloween! However, if you find Halloween an un-spirited time, stay inside and make sure to turn your light off (wouldn\u0026rsquo;t want any trick-or-treaters).\u003C\/li\u003E\r\n\t\u003Cli\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EYou don\u0026rsquo;t want to see a giant hamburger (or other silly costume) run a 5K\u003C\/strong\u003E.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\r\n\tNot only will you get to see people in spooky, elaborate, and silly costumes\u0026mdash;you will get to see these people running (or walking) an entire 5K.
