I have been to Niagara 4 times. Each time I have had an interesting grower for a roommate.
3 of my 4 roommates were Rock Rivard, Sandwich Kurkowski and Gary Miller.
The 4th guy suggested that I make a contest guessing who he is.....Who was my other roommate?

Here's the prize...
1046.6 Bowles 06
1109 Speakman 04

I will leave it to my former roommate to add a third seed to the prize at the end of the contest.
(He didn't know that I was going to do that!) lol

Rules..... you MAY NOT ask any other grower who it was. Take your best guess. Only one guess per person. First correct answer posted on this thread wins.

I heard Elvis fertilizes with peanut butter, injects it right into the vines. This may just be a rumor. I wish I'd asked him that time I saw him fishing under the Kinzua Bridge.

Joe, I remember the first night there, I arrived late because of a plane delay. At 10 p.m. I invited Shellie over to our room to meet you. My watch was still on California time, it was 1 a.m. Niagara time! We decided to open a bottle of that Napa wine but didn't have a corkscrew so we pushed the cork inside the bottle using a toothbrush..... and drank the wine out of plastic cups.
Life doesn't get much better than that!

p.s. you talk in your sleep ..... you kept mumbling something growing a bigger pumpkin than Bart.
