Being part of the spookiest team in the ISFL, Akinfenwa thinks it to be only right that Halloween is taken seriously in Yellowknife. Due to the tiny nature of the city and the massive part that the Wraiths play in the culture of the city, the entirety of Yellowknife becomes Wraith themed for halloween with decorations all over the city. Akinfenwa himself has hosted several Halloween parties over the last few seasons for his fellow team mates and other members of staff on the team. He used his experience from many years playing professional football, or soccer as locals refer to it, to know the right way to host a sports team party. Alcohol is always flowing for team mates who come in good costumes with IV drips on hand to rehydrate them and ensure they're ready for training the next day. However if you come in a non-wraith themed costume, you are forced to run around outside first and are put on treat giving duty to the local kids. No one turns up with a bad costume 2 years in a row.
