New leader for pumpkins and new North American record - 2145.5 pounds by Gene McMullen pic.twitter.com/YFQULjzLDP
— GPC (@GPCpumpkin) September 19, 2015Gene McMullen set a new North American record with his 2145-pound pumpkin, officially weighed at the Cedarburg Wine & Harvest Festival in Wisconsin last weekend. McMullen, a factory worker from Illinois, explains his success as “dumb luck.” He grew a 1,600-pound pumpkin last year. You have to wonder how many pies could be made from that one pumpkin.
Pfft! It's not a proper ton is it? Not even a metric tonne. Just a short ton.
