Would you believe that there were over 400 submissions to this year's Pioneer Press Marshmallow Peeps Diorama contest?
Contestants expressed pathetic thanks to the Pioneer Press for enabling their Peeps obsession and begged us to continue the contest under future new ownership.
Some created blogs devoted to documenting diorama construction and held in-house diorama competitions in their workplaces.
And they confessed their membership to the cult of Peeps without shame.
