Are you saying it was weighed on 10/01 ?? and then entered again at Elk
Grove, if I read this right, no fruit can be allowed to be competive that
was previously entered at another weigh off. Seems to be standard rule at
most weigh offs . Please correct me if I got this wrong. Cliff Picketts had
the biggest pumpkin grown on PEI this year, weighed it at Windsor N.S on
10/01, was beat with the one he brought to PEI weigh off by Bill VanSchuppen
a week later, he made his choice & lost, he could have brought the bigger
one ,so Bill wins all the marbels. Been there done that, please correct me
if I'm wrong. A 908 is a great achievement, need to be praised for what it
did where it did it, but in no way take away from the true winners at Elk
Grove where it placed 7th. At Elk Grove it's a 7th placed fruit & if that's
one of the offical sites in Ca then it should stand as such. The view from
here.

Before weigh-off season ends, we ought to acknowledge the accomplishment of
John Sach of Whittier, whose 908-pound 7th place pumpkin at Elk Grove on
10/1 is probably the record for Southern California.
Mike Brock, you keep the records - has any So Cal grower ever done better?
Pirate, Troy, do you know?
