The Cabbage Night tradition was in full swing at Antonio's Wednesday night as participants worked to launch 801 rolls of toilet paper into the trees around the restaurant.
It's a tradition that dates back decades when Steven Antonio's parents worked to keep the kids from causing mischief.
These days participants bring an item for foodshare in exchange for a roll — or often several.
The restaurant also debuted custom-made roll launchers.
"Everyone had a blast," said owner Steven Antonio. "It was well worth it again."
Eddy Graczewski and his daughter Nicole came down from Westfield, Mass. for the second year to bring a donation, have a meal at the restaurant and join the fun. He said he wanted to thank Antonio for a great night out.
"It was so good the first year, we came back," Nicole Graczewski said.
Over at Simsbury Public Library Wednesday night, large crowds came out for a town-wide Halloween Celebration that included a costume parade, magic, trick-or-treating, safety tips, crafts, storytelling and more.
