    Now thats a big pumpkin, lol.  The best my cousin ever did was 1028 pounds, the one we were carving (above) was 728 pounds, kinda dwarfed by that one lol.

    Although it doesn't qualify for the contest - here is my pumpkin family, created last weekend.  I think the ghost and the pirate turned out well.

    No doubt the pirate came out good.  Who's the guy with the big nose on the left?  Confused

    So do we use that utility or do we really need to get a pumpkin and carve it?

    Re: Newegg Halloween Pumpkin Carving Contest

    Who needs the tool (besides knife-challenged me)?  No entries yet, and the contest closes tomorrow 

    Easy money for those last-minute carvers.  Yes

     

    EDIT: CONTEST HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO 11/2/2007, Noon PST, so get your pics posted by then to make the cut off!  Good luck contestants!

    Re: Newegg Halloween Pumpkin Carving Contest

    Grrrr, if only I had a pumpkin.  I can't draw or paint or really even doodle very well but I have always been good at carving up pumpkins.  And for the most part good luck with them other than one incident of leaving a carved pumpkin on a heat register.
