Why do they still bother with BONCO? It has no relevance to bonfire whatsoever.

I guess your right. Maybe I'm just a bit more of a traditionalist, fancy dress events don't seem in keeping. However, enjoy the evening.

I know the first Bonfire boys wore the “smugglers” jumper as a disguise but the earliest photos show people in fancy dress, so I would say it’s quite traditional.

Originally Bonfire was all fancy dress, the smugglers were a later addition once the authorities started to crack down on it. They then went away again once it all got a bit more organised and only started creeping back in in the 70's. Even then it was a workers uniform, not really worn by people processing.
