Gee! I was there and missed meeting all of you. I brought in the 340 Atlantic Giant. This was my first year attempt knowing how to grow a big one. Even though I did not place, I was pleased with my personal best. I know where to get the big seeds now so next year am hoping to be in the running with all of you. Congrats to all.

Hey folks,
Glad to meet you Mr. Neptune (congrats on second, my estimate was low lol)), Mr. Geiger, Mr. Welty (I was most impressed by the way you could carry that 74# watermelon around, the 510 was a beauty and I believe your melon was first but I'll let you know for sure tomorrow night when I go back out, I'll e-mail you.)), my buddy Todd Skinner and Rege (Sasquash for his PR). Wish I would have got to meet Christy (congratulations on a beauty and third place) and Mr. Cogar. Goatlady, If I knew your real first name I might have been able to find you. Maybe I'll have a better year since I've had two biguns go down to splits the last two years. I'm getting gun shy lol. Don "Perriman" Chambers
