Not to many date nights left before season starts. Time to sit down with friends or family and watch and old man make a fool of himself trying to grow pumpkins. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=voJ26zgR3jM

Wow, bill you have had 32,258 views. You are a movie star. I might have to take my wife for a night out on the town in the next 6 weeks. After that she will become a pumpkin widow again...as I spend all my free time with my new loves in the garden. It is a hard life, being married to a pumpkin grower.

This is one of the greatest films of all time. I made my kids watch it just the other night. They have been forced to watch it on multiple occasions. My wife will not watch it.

I am one of the lucky few that have been out to where this movie was filmed and met the star himself. I never thought it would happen, but I was star struck. :) You're the best Bill

This movie was what made me decide to give growing giants a serious try. Last year I was lucky enough to grow a 359 Foss. Was a real honor to hear from Bill with words of encouragement!

That brought back memories. I remember talking to you when you came to Anamosa. It was the year my son's big pumpkin split a week earlier and mine split just 2 days before the weighoff.

Thanks for all those who took time to view it and the kind comments. Especially to Don who has been watching it multiple times every year trying to find out what three seeds I'm going to plant.

Ryan gets contacted many times every year from people that really enjoyed it. Most often it is from parents with young children.

We thought about putting digital name tags on the growers at Austin, Anamosa and SCGA weigh-offs but decided against it. Bill
