Congrats on an early weighing. I only dream of a fruit that big.

Can it be considered "official" or was the scale just certified?

Jeff,
Congatulations!!! I'd love to be able to grow one like that, and drive it around in the back of my pickup(I mean my dad's pickup). It's inspiring to a new grower like me.
So is the Castrol motor oil and sour cream your secret nutrition supplement? Just kiddng(smile).

A 500 lb. pumpkin in southern Ga. would be the equivalent of a 1000 lb. pumpkin in the more favorable growing areas, I'd guess.
