Re: Clarence New York Weigh-Off September 30, 2000
Scott and others,
I was joking, I live in Ca. and that is a bit of a drive. Although there
are some pumpkin nuts over here that just might cut their biggy early and
go for the gusto.Like I said nuts!! How much would a plane cost?? Nope its
too much of a hassle. I think those that live with-in reach are lucky.
That is a fantastic prize for someones lucky accomplishment and hopefully
some poor ole farmer will win the prize!! You just can't plan on financial
gain with these monsters you'd be better off getting a job and paid an
hourly wage. Do you really think anyone grows these AG for the money??
