I don't know how many ugly ones there are out there. I can only speak about 
my ugly ones. I have one plain ole ugly squash and one "butt ugly pumpkin." 
It's growing slightly blossom up with a bird bath and the bottom is pushing 
way out compared to the top. The stupid thing is only about 2'-2.5' from stem 
to blossom but extremely high and wide. Awful looking thing! It sure isn't 
pretty but I guess we're not in a beauty contest either!!
