Wow Kevin,
You lost some monsters, but still ran away with the Austin, MN and Sioux Falls, SD weighoffs. You must have something special there in Parker, SD(is it the water?)

Thank you everyone! But in my opinion Greg Kurkowski won! He grew a 1077.5 that went way heavy!!! Congrats Greg! My 1237.5 is actually my 1269 that was weighed in Austin. My 1049 was my oficial entry. I just brought my 1269 as an exhibition pumpkin- I was just curious how much it would lose in a week. But Greg, being the great guy that he is said"It was the largest pumpkin here so Kevin gets 1st" So please give Greg the congrats-he is the real winner!!! Thank you! Kevin

As you can see, Kevin did not try to slip his 1269 into a 2nd contest. . .he brought it with the Austin 1269 sticker still on it. Trouble is, Greg has so many 1st place awards he's running out of room. SD is lucky to have 2 world class growers that are also nice and share knowledge and seeds with all of our group.
