Growing up in central Minnesota, Rich Triplet has some mixed memories of Halloween. Unlike a lot of states, Minnesota typically starts winter in mid-late November. Some years winter likes to start a little early, Rich still has memories of snow on the ground while he walked around in his ninja costumes. Red, Blue, and Black three years in a row. Moving to Tijuana has been great for Rich and he’s learned a lot about the Mexican Halloween traditions. Less spooky and more festive, but as Christmas is Rich’s favorite holiday, he has no objections. Trying to connect more with the fans Rich Triplet has been spotted in the streets of Tijuana celebrating Día de Muertos or the Day of the Dead. Out in parades and dressing up in the appropriate garments celebrating the dead as is tradition. When asked about the culture change Rich is on record in saying, “While it’s a lot different than how I did it as a kid. I think it’s more fun, more community based and less how much candy can I get ya know? Plus, the weather is a lot nicer in Tijuana than in Minnesota.” However, while the holiday it’s self has changed Rich still enjoys watching scary series after practice, and makes sure to send some Mexican candy back home to the states for his parents to give to the neighborhood kids.
