Well we got that fat melon weighed and just missed the state record by less than 5 pound. 1st place melon was 179.7 pounds and second place was 132.4 pounds off the same 251 Mudd plant.

Congrats Marty, on the BP and the win, it is even more impressive that both melons came off the same vine. I guess James' estimate was about as close as you can get.
