Why is it so important to be the one who announces the heist?

Great question! In the show, the "heist" is a very significant Halloween tradition for them.

I also think announcing the heist is a kind of preemptive action and hope that they'll win the heist. It shows that the competition has already begun before it's even started and that they're all really competitive!
