Re: INDIANA STATE RECORD

Brad,
 
The decision should have been made right there, not a week later. As the site co-ordinator you should have expressed your feeling towards the situation. Cannot make a call on whether its a sound pumpkin a week later.Judges decision is final.

Andrew and others,
                             The weigh-off at Hubers is an IPGA affiliated weigh-off.  As is the Indiana State Fair and the Noblesville weigh-off.  Maybe you need to read a little closer.  We accepted the judges decision that day and agreed that Tom was the winner.  
      Andrew, if you bring a 1263 to the weigh-off this year and set the new world record, do you think it should count if it is oozing fluid at a steady rate while it is still on the scale?  If you can answer that yes with a clear conscience let me know.
      For the record, the judges and the host did approach me, the site coordinator, and ask me what they should do.  I told them this is situation we have never seen before.  I also ask them.  Did it pass the final inspection you gave it?  They said "yes"   By the rules the judges had every right to make the decision the did.  I agreed with them in their decision.  However, the question still remains.  Was this pumpkin, that was still sitting on the scale free of damage and rot?  No

Would you like to trade places with me?

Brad
