Skinners 909 pumpkin king was hit by vandals while it was sitting infront of the Mcdonalds on display in Barnesville that McDonals bought for 2000.00 to display it. Some azz Clown run over the Pumpkin with a truck 3 or four times, They say that is the first time in history the king has ever been hit by vandals. I Dont know much more then this, I just found out about it yesterday at work and cant find anything on the web about it to post. If someone can find something will u please post it here.

Hope they catch the culprits, lock them up and feed them rotten fried pumpkin burgers in a ronald bag till their sentence is served, then they will not even want to look at another pumpkin in the same perspective again wanting to vandalize it , as the big old fruit will have revenge on the culprit...lol

I just can't imagine that some social deviant could look at that pumpkin and say to himself... "hmmmmmm... everybody is enjoying this massive fruit....let's distroy it!"
Beyond my comprehension... and my sights.......

You really have to wonder about the mentality that drives such childish behaviour. I hope they are proud of themselves.

i was really disappointed to read about it in the local paper. i can imagine how skinner feels losing something which required soo much time and money to produce.

They didnt steal any of the seeds. I heard though the grape vine, they recovered up with about 600 seeds, So thats a good thing.

If they are caught, the police should simply deliver them in handcuffs tied to a tree at a patch on the Ohio Patch Tour next year. :>)
