The 5 Reasons To Avoid Fall In New Jersey

#5 Pumpkin Spice - it's the most overrated flavor on the planet.

#4 The end of my beloved summer - no matter how you slice it, you can't avoid that fact.

#3 The opening act to the dreaded winter season - if you think I hate fall, try talking to me about winter.
