Around this time every year, I want to make a trek to Key West. Hummmm… I guess I always want to make a trek to Key West any time of year. But as Halloween approaches, I fantasize about going even more. You see… Key West has a Halloween event like only Key West can have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of you may think I\u2019m a \u201cdirty old man.\u201d Well… I will only admit, I\u2019m just a guy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ok… I warned you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Key West calls its Halloween event \u201cFantasy Fest.\u201d That sounds innocent enough, huh? Halloween is a time for adults, and I suppose kids too, to dress up in costumes and parade down Duval Street. Now about those costumes…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I tried to figure out a way to \u201cpolitely\u201d tell about the \u201ccostumes.\u201d I grappled finding just the correct phrase or words… something that would give you the \u201cflavor\u201d of the place without offending anyone. Not that Kokomo Man is intended to be family-oriented… it isn\u2019t. But I don\u2019t want to offend people who are more… ummmm… conservative than me. (I even hesitated to use the word \u201cconservative\u201d because that has political connotations these days. Here, I\u2019m not being political.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After writing and deleting several paragraphs, I decided to fall back on my initial promise to readers; tell the good, the bad, and the ugly. This time it isn\u2019t good, bad, or ugly. Hummm… beauty is in the eye of the beholder, right? Maybe a little ugly, but I\u2019ll let you decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ok… I warned you… twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fantasy Fest is full-on boobies on display. Borrowing the words of the writer, Denny Hartwell: The Key West Fantasy Fest is the world\u2019s largest \u201cTits-n-Tease.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before I go on, some will accuse me of only telling about the boobies. They will say Fantasy Fest is more than that… it’s about fun and costumes. The next pic shows that indeed, there will be lots of fun and costuimes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But don’t Google “fantasy fest” and check out all the pics. Because if you do, you find out Fantasy Fest is about fun, costumes…. and boobies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exhibitionists from all over the world come to show off their boobies. It doesn\u2019t matter what kind of boobies they have; big boobies, little boobies… saggy boobies, or perky boobies. They are all out there on display…. often quite clever displays but on display just the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not everyone showing off what they have are exhibitionists except during Fantesy Fest. For the rest of the year I suspect they are regular people… accountants, brain surgeons, carpenters, and the woman working at the grocery check-out stand. They come to Key West once a year to \u201clet their hair down\u201d and to let it all hang out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ummmm… letting it \u201call hang out\u201d is not exactly legal. I don\u2019t know where the line is drawn but here are a few rules from the \u201cofficial\u201d Fantasy Fest Code of Conduct:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
