Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival

Have you ever been to a Pumpkin Chuckin' Festival? We joined Moab, Utah locals at their festival for some good, old-fashioned fun. Everyone from babies to adults was dressed in costumes, adding to the atmosphere.

Now the pumpkins were not thrown by hand- 2 large compressed air cannons launched the missiles across the field!
This one also launched bowling balls, while the smaller one used pumpkins only.
There was added fun with the Weiner Race for sausage dogs only. These are the practice rounds.

And a pumpkin pie eating contest for children & adults.

  1. I was going to say "Only in America" & then I though of the Watermelon Festival in Chinchilla. It's just as mad, so I believe.
