Heights, Spiders, Snakes, And More – Our Biggest Fears In The CSRA

What are people's biggest fears here in the CSRA? Everyone is scared of something, but what are people in Georgia and South Carolina most afraid of? I've found a list of those fears, and I'm curious to see if y'all agree with these or not.

According to a new survey published by Casino.org, there are about ten different phobias that people in each state have. These are the most common ones.

These are the most common phobias by everyone in at least one state in the country. So, what are the biggest fears of people here in the CSRA? In Georgia, it's Acrophobia, the fear of heights. And in South Carolina, it's Ophidiophobia, the fear of snakes. I'd say those check out. Speaking for myself, I'm not a huge fan of either of those things. Although, I can take heights more than I can spiders.

Speaking of scary things. Let's talk about Halloween, and some weird, off the wall things people here in the CSRA found in their Halloween trick or treat bags instead of candy.

You're not going to believe what some people in the CSRA have found in their Halloween bags. It's not always candy that you get when you go trick or treating. Of course most people do give out candy, but some people go a more unconventional route. Maybe they don't want to be the same as everyone else, or maybe they forgot to buy candy, now they're scrambling last minute.

Either way, it makes for some pretty entertaining stories. We started talking about it this morning. I said that I'll never forget when I was a kid, I got change one year in my trick or treat bag. Someone literally had a coffee can full of change, and they were giving out handfuls of change instead of candy.

We've also heard about people giving out toothbrushes or fruit on Halloween. C'mon, don't do the kids dirty that way! Kids want candy on Halloween. That's why its called trick or treat, not trick or fruit, or trick or toothbrush!

As usual, we got some really great stories from y'all. One called said he got Krystal burgers one year. Another lady said she got shoes. These are true stories, we're not making these up.

A lady told us that her kid got a potato last year. What are we supposed to do with that? put it in the microwave for 10 minutes and then cover it with butter and cheese?!

At least this is better than a potato. The kid agreed, his mom said he wanted to eat them as soon as they got home!

It wasn't frozen of course. It was one of those ones thats just a bag of juice until you freeze it. So basically this person got a small bag of juice. Happy Halloween...I guess

A miniature loaf of bread? Isn't that a roll? Was someone out here handing out rolls for Halloween? What a weirdo.

Yes, a lady said that she got rubber gloves in her Halloween bag one year. She said they didn't go back to that neighborhood after that, yeah I don't blame you! Handing our rubber gloves is pretty strange.
