Yeah, you heard me. A family of farmers decided to make a cannon to launch pumpkins. I hope this is going to be entered inttto the World Pumpkin Chunkin’ Contest. It’s held in my home state of Delaware and I used to go to this thing and just get smashed and watch cannons launching pumpkins down field. Wowowowowow!


Oh, how I miss Delaware. I think I’ll have to go back just to experience this again.


Watch the video! It’s amazing.
