I’m completely mesmerized by the Kansas State Fair’s largest pumpkin. It was just announced that this year’s winner weighs 976.6 pounds. One onlooker says that’s “pretty dad gum big.” I don’t think that does it justice. I think it’s pretty dad gum gihugic.
Did they have to send a “wide load” vehicle with red lights and screaming sirens ahead of the truck that towed this pumpkin to the Fair?
What do you do with a pumpkin like that after it wins? It’s certainly not fitting into any trophy case I’ve ever seen. Seems like it would be a crime to turn it into a jack-o-lantern. Or maybe that’s a fitting end to something that’s really kind of scary already.
The Wichita Eagle has a nice story and video clip. Check it out here if you can’t make it to Hutch!
