Guess the pumpkin weight

Well it’s that time of year again.  Fall is upon us and it’s time for the first annual guess the giant pumpkin weight contest.  This was my first year for growing a giant pumpkin so I wasn’t expecting much.  However, I think I broke my own goal for the first time out of the gate and am looking forward to next year’s patch.

Take a look at the pictures below and then leave a comment with your guestimate as to the weight of this pumpkin.  The official weigh-in will be this Saturday, October 3, 2009.  I’ll be sure to post the results as soon as I get them.  The winner (Price is Right Rules) will receive the admiration of their friends and family.  A prize you just can’t put a price on.  So I won’t.

Enough yammering.  Behold! My 2009 Giant Pumpkin!

    Wait til I tell Charlie and Linus you have their Pumpkin…… then “it” will surely hit the fan! My guess is 276.

    Wow, you really got a big one!! Was that in the Navy, Clark? 318 pounds, 7.5 oz.

    Hmm, seeing that it took four big MUSCULAR men to lift the great pumpkin I’m calculating 328 pounds.

    Actually, sorry Beth, I’m in the Price is Right mode. I had to bid without going over and since you live with the Great Pumpkin Grower, well you know.

    258 pounds

    Mr. Chris,
    In looking at the picture and after reviewing the angle and also relating to the beer bottle I am guessing the approximate weight to be 93.3984 lbs. American weight.
    Nice pumpkin dude.
