Hello Everyone!

I had an idea for a fun contest. What it entails is this: Can you guess which two states, two provinces and two European countries we received the most pumpkin seed orders from. If you can guess correctly all, then you will win a Dill's Atlantic Giant Jacket. If no one guesses correctly then the first person or persons who answer one part of the "test" correctly will win a pumpkin hat. (i.e. If you guess correctly the top 2 states)
You will have until Monday, May 10 to guess, and to make it fair, one guess per person, so really think about your answers. I will give you two hints. First, the top two states each have a major league hockey and baseball team and you can eliminate New York from your top two states. And as a bonus, the first person to correctly answer the only state we did not receive an order from will win a pumpkin t-shirt. I guess that's it, good luck to everyone and so you know, dad guessed correctly which state we had the most orders from and he doesn't do the orders. lol

Why doesn't anyone think they grow giant pumpkins in Hawaii, We've had a BP member from Maui keep a diary for the last 2 years. I think he had 200+ lbs last year if I remember right.

But did they order from Howard is the question. I grew too. But I got the seeds locally.

I'm just making convo Steve, And just so you know why I said Kansas it was because I saw it on TV the other night. After the little girl woke up from the bump on her head she got from the twister & trying to escape from the flying monkeys I thought she said..........Are you ready????

Okay, here are the results. Unfortunately, no one answered correctly the whole question but did have three separate winners for three parts of the question.
BrianInOregon was the first to correctly answer that we had no orders from Hawaii.
GreenRye was the first to correctly answer the top two European countries we received orders from; Germany and England.
pgri was the first to correctly answer the top two Canadian provinces we received orders from; Ontario and New Brunswick.
Now, we still need a correct answer for the top two states. I will give everyone until tomorrow, May 11, 5:00 pm EST to answer. To narrow it down, California is the top state, just give me state #2. First person to answer correctly.
I will e-mail the winners tomorrow to get addresses to send your prizes.
Thanks again for participating. Diana

Hi everyone,

Regarding the cut-off time for this part of the contest, I meant to put down 5:00 pm Atlantic Standard Time (4:00 EST).
At this moment, no one has correctly answered state #2. Another hint, their hockey team was recently beat out of the playoffs. Think Mr.Hockey. Clean slate, if you've answered already, you most certainly can answer again.
